cont. from https://audiosex.pro/threads/transition-to-reaper-and-some-questions.26430/#post-209497

another way is driving the built-in modulation system of Reaper using clip envelopes(same way as before), it needs item automation>MIDI expression>ReaControlPath conversion (Reaper has two independent MIDI events routing system, one for control path and the standard MIDI path)

http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?p=357691#post357691

just because we can't put modulation into the clips(LFO in them for ex. can overwrite each other) we have to put another envelope transformer into the track itself and the ReaControlPath just after it

so the second "CC-that-gets-recorded-as-track-input" should be converted to "control-CC-that-becomes-automation" it can be solved by MIDItoReaControlPath: free VST for extended learn/assgin http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=43741

automation have to be recorded just before the final render (or if needs the bounced version, for freezing, adding reverse reverb etc.) to standard automation, there is a just added video about it on

still thinking what would be the best, but it seems usable for me

That's brilliant thank you..

 

created a script to able to achive this


it creates weighted sum of two CC values

Code:

desc:MIDI CCs Sum

slider1:0<0,16,1{All channels,Channel 01,Channel 02,Channel 03,Channel 04,Channel 05,Channel 06,Channel 07,Channel 08,Channel 09,Channel 10,Channel 11,Channel 12,Channel 13,Channel 14,Channel 15,Channel 16}>on MIDI
slider2:0<0,127,1>CC number 1
slider3:0<0,127,1>CC number 2
slider4:0<0,1,.05>mod rate 1
slider5:0<0,1,.05>mod rate 2

// -------------------------------------------
in_pin:none
out_pin:none

// ==========================================================
@init
    CC_MSG = 11;

// ==========================================================

// ==========================================================
@sample

while (
    midirecv(mpos, msg1, msg23) ? (

// ========================================= For EVERY MIDI msg received
        msg = (msg1 / 16) | 0;
        channel = 1 + msg1 - (msg * 16);   
        CC_num = msg23 & 127;
        CC_value = (msg23 / 256) | 0;
      
        msg == CC_MSG && CC_num == slider2 ? (
          CC_value_1 = CC_value;
        );
        msg == CC_MSG && CC_num == slider3 ? (
          CC_value_2 = CC_value;
        );
    
        out_value = floor((CC_value_1) * slider4 + (CC_value_2) * slider5 ) ;
        out_value = out_value > 127 ? 127 : out_value;
        msg23 = CC_num | (out_value*256);
      
    
        midisend(mpos, msg1, msg23);
dbg_out +=1;
    );
);

nothing fancy

 

Very interesting, was wondering if it is possible to work with the volume of the item in your script so there wouldn't be a need for the automation plugins on the items. Will definitely test tonight.

Thank you.

 

This is awesome, thanks.
Any way to assign two midi cc to one controller?

 

not sure, but maybe https://www.helgoboss.org/projects/realearn/ can do it

would be nice, I've found only CC source based solutions like the 4 automations http://forum.cockos.com/showpost.php?p=924663&postcount=10 , although there are many take envelope related scripts http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=142839 so how knows

added a + slider input, so currently it's a side-chainable modulated automation

Code:

desc:MIDI CCs Summary

slider1:0<0,16,1{All channels,Channel 01,Channel 02,Channel 03,Channel 04,Channel 05,Channel 06,Channel 07,Channel 08,Channel 09,Channel 10,Channel 11,Channel 12,Channel 13,Channel 14,Channel 15,Channel 16}>on MIDI
slider2:0<0,127,1>CC number 1
slider3:0<0,127,1>CC number 2
slider4:0<0,1,.05>mod ratio 1
slider5:0<0,1,.05>mod ratio 2
slider6:0<0,127,1>modulate this
slider7:0<0,1,.05>modulate this ratio
// -------------------------------------------
in_pin:none
out_pin:none

// ==========================================================
@init
    CC_MSG = 11;
    cc_msg_control = 176;
    mod_this_curr = ceil(slider6);
    mod_this_run = 1;


// ==========================================================

// ==========================================================
@slider
slider6 = ceil(slider6);
mod_this_curr != slider6 ? (
    mod_this_curr = slider6;
    mod_this_run = 1;
);

@block

mod_this_run ? (
  out = floor(CC_value_1 * slider4 + CC_value_2 * slider5 + mod_this_curr * slider7  ) ;
  out = out > 127 ? 127 : out;
  midisend(offset, (cc_msg_control + slider1), (slider2 ) | (out * 256));
  mod_this_run = 0;
);


@sample

while (
    midirecv(ms, m1, m23) ? (

// ========================================= For EVERY MIDI msg received
        mpos = ms;
        msg1 = m1;
        msg23 = m23;
 
 
        msg = (msg1 / 16) | 0;
        channel = 1 + msg1 - (msg * 16);
        CC_num = msg23 & 127;
        CC_value = (msg23 / 256) | 0;
 
        msg == CC_MSG && CC_num == slider2 ? (
          CC_value_1 = CC_value;
        );
        msg == CC_MSG && CC_num == slider3 ? (
          CC_value_2 = CC_value;
        );

        out_value = floor(CC_value_1 * slider4 + CC_value_2 * slider5 + slider6 * slider7  ) ;
        out_value = out_value > 127 ? 127 : out_value;
        msg23 = slider2 | (out_value*256);
 

      midisend(mpos, msg1, msg23);
    );

);

it's just a concept of proof ... never tried with 200tracks

started a topic about clip automation > multi track linking http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=180221 if somebody interested in it

 

What theme are you using here in automation demo http://forum.cockos.com/showpost.php?p=1713483&postcount=6

Edit: Nevermind got it from your other videos

 

yepp it's iLogic, seems automation clips working only with Lua: Mapping Panel too http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=170044

seems quite cool ( http://forum.cockos.com/showpost.php?p=1717294&postcount=3 ) especially because it can be rendered out directly even from a routed only track(dunno the PDC ... )
