Hi,
i try to instal a Bitwig Script. Its the Melody Maker Script from Polarity Music.
The file is called : Meloydmaker.js
The File goes in the Folder in WiN :
User/Documents/Bitwig Studio/Controller Scipts/Polarity/melodymaker.js

What failed is : When i go into the settings of Bitwig...
Settings/Controllers/+add Controller/ Generic/ there is no Polarity Folder with the melodymaker Script.

What am i doing wrong ?

 

here's a link to the script in question. GitHub from the website for this script: https://polarity.me/posts/polarity-music/2025-01-29-melody-maker-bitwig-piano-roll-extension/

Typo in the folder? User/Documents/Bitwig Studio/Controller Scipts/Polarity/melodymaker.js

Scripts missing an r in it, so it's incorrect location?

Thank you clone for the reply
I know these sites and explanation but in my case it doesnt work. It doesnt show up

 

Tried, have the same issue, "Polarity" isn't showing up in vendor list, Bitwig 5.3.13, Sonoma.

Tried this too, no luck either

 

sad because there are some nice scripts out there

 

The links are for anyone who wanted to try testing the script since it is free. If the folder name has a typo in it, everything in the script is going to call from wrong locations. Did you check the folder name on your end?

I closed Logic and opened it. You see the script there but it is greyed out like mine?

Bitwig has "Controller Script Console" which displays statuses of scripts and ports. You can open it to check why the load failed - press crtl+enter, then type to filter the list (or scroll to find it). My bet would be that it will say you are missing an external file that the script is trying to load.

 

Did you include the scales.js script? I used them when on Bitwig 5 so know there is nothing inherently wrong with any of them.

 

Well that solves the mystery of missing external file

 

Confirm, that solves it!
