话题: LOOP LENGTH
when setting the length of loop with custom button with the script loop_length is there a way to keep that loop length for the next loop created... as is done when loop is changed by loop_half OR loop_double scripts (or by changing the loop length with the VDJ interface or controller)

loop_length from the wiki:



For example if one wanted a custom button to reset the loop_length from 1/8 beat to 4 beats with one press it can be done with loop_length 4 ( and THAT loop is changed to 4 beats)

BUT the next loop created will be 1/8 beat loop.. . NOT 4, which is wanted.

The only way to have the next loop created to default to a 4 beat loop when created, in this case is to click the interface/controller, 5 times or use the script loop_double 5 times(not the instantaneous return which is desired), instead of using the single click loop_length scripted custom button.

OR to remember to click the loop double on the VDJ interface or controller after the loop has ended, 5 times, to set the newly created loop to be created at 4 beats.


How can set the default loop length to 4 for current loop and also the NEXT loop with a single click?




----------------------------
PS
Note: changing the setting: loopDefault to 4 in options made no difference.

and adding this to the custom button:
loop_length 4 & setting "loopDefault" 4

Does not work either for allowing the next loop created to be 4 beats

--------------------------------------

maybe its just my install of VDJ ? could someone reproduce this?

1) create custom button: loop_length 4
2) start a loop and change it to 1/8 beat
3) click custom button to set THAT loop to 4 beats
4) turn off loop
5) start another loop ..

is it 1/8th beat OR 4 beats ?

LOOP LENGTH is temporary, loop will revert to default size when switched off

Thank you Locodog for letting me know it NOT just my VDJ install.

The documentation neglected to mention that it's Temporary.

And I assume there is not an easy way to set the Loop Length permanently?

thanks again

too simple, smiles

(had eliminated loop 4 since it could turn off the loop.. will just check first, before applying it)
