Topic: Sending absolute BPM to Freestyler - Page: 2
I think to save the headaches and take the easy option, I'll plug the controller in last after VDJ has started....

mapping as follows
pad1

pad2

pad3

pad4

pad5 same as your code from previous (no changes)
pad6

pad7

pad8 same as your code from previous (no changes)
 
when everything is connected in the working condition, when pressing pad 6 or 7 (reset / activate) is when the ghosting on the effect slider appears. I can get rid of it by cycling up and down the slider (pads 5 & 8) away 1 step from the ghosted point, but then returns if i press reset again.
 
use
deck master effect_active freestyler on & param_multiply 3 `get_constant 7 & param_1_x` & param_cast & effect_slider freestyler 1
and
deck master param_multiply 3 `get_constant 7 & param_1_x` & param_cast & effect_slider freestyler 1
 
your code has cured the ghosting. thank you. as you can see, mine was a complete guess....
as for the start up, i can only think the controller is conflicting with something that is causing the output loss to freestyler as all other functions within vdj work (cues, sliders, knobs etc).
 
I've been testing everything with connecting the controller after VDJ has loaded up and everything seems to becoming together.

One observation I have made is that the pads (1 - 4) only stay illuminated whilst being pressed, therefore I'm unaware of which dmx cue I'm running without looking what the lights are doing or flipping over to freestyler.

I've had a go after a bit of research but not near my kit to try, would changing the code to the below keep which ever pad was pressed to stay illuminated and turn off the rest?
(ie, press pad 1, it illuminates, press pad 2, pad 1 goes off and pad 2 illuminates etc...)

PAD 1
(dmx-pad 'All ON' on : dmx-pad 'PARS only' off : dmx-pad 'STROBE' off : dmx-pad 'All OFF' off) & set '$FS_SND_CUE_01' 1 while_pressed
PAD 2
(dmx-pad 'PARS only' on : dmx-pad 'All ON' off : dmx-pad 'STROBE' off : dmx-pad 'All OFF' off) & set '$FS_SND_CUE_03' 1 while_pressed
PAD 3
(dmx-pad 'STROBE' on : dmx-pad 'All ON' off : dmx-pad 'PARS only' off : dmx-pad 'All OFF' off) & set '$FS_SND_CUE_13' 1 while_pressed
PAD 4
(dmx-pad 'All OFF' on : dmx-pad 'All ON' off : dmx-pad 'PARS only' off : dmx-pad 'STROBE' off) & set '$FS_SND_CUE_02' 1 while_pressed
 
nope dmx-pad isn't a verb, and LED logic doesn't work like that, maybe something like this

PAD 1
( var $dmxPadLED 1 ? on : off ) & set '$FS_SND_CUE_01' 1 while_pressed & var $dmxPadLED 1 ? set $dmxPadLED 0 : set $dmxPadLED 1
PAD 2
( var $dmxPadLED 2 ? on : off ) & set '$FS_SND_CUE_03' 1 while_pressed & var $dmxPadLED 2 ? set $dmxPadLED 0 : set $dmxPadLED 2
PAD 3
( var $dmxPadLED 3 on : off ) & set '$FS_SND_CUE_13' 1 while_pressed & var $dmxPadLED 3 ? set $dmxPadLED 0 : set $dmxPadLED 3
PAD 4
( var $dmxPadLED 4 ? on : off ) & set '$FS_SND_CUE_02' 1 while_pressed & var $dmxPadLED 4 ? set $dmxPadLED 0 : set $dmxPadLED 4
 
worked a dream!

pad 3 needed a bit of reconfiguring as 1 & 3 lit and 3 didn't activate strobe, however, easily sorted looking at the others.... starting to slowly pick bits up now lol
