Alpha: Note indicator lights

Most Recent

written by: keyman

Thanks @Gonecaving... i did notice that

I've bin promising some more "naughtiness" around this so here it goes:

Use the percussion keys to change the light patterns ( be them relative to given scales or just "wild"patterns)
(this uses the previous script)

empty join
talker create
it to percussion light scale talker name ify

percussion kgroup 1 hey
output 12 create

percussion kgroup 1 output 12 to percussion light scale talker connect

kgroup 1 listen
percussion light scale talker listen
interpreter listen

" percussion light scale talker hey 1 to 1 from 2 colour ify " when 1 do output 14 when 1 set
" percussion light scale talker hey 2 to 1 from 2 colour ify " when 2 do output 15 when 2 set
" percussion light scale talker hey 3 to 1 from 2 colour ify " when 3 do output 16 when 3 set
" percussion light scale talker hey 4 to 1 from 2 colour ify " when 4 do output 17 when 4 set
..... and so on...

if you one likes to re-arrange the output's from the percussion kgroup:

empty join
percussion kgroup 1 listen
output 1 to 11 move

or
output 1 to 13 move
(( for example; 13 will eventually "disappear"))

That looks much better. Sorry if I have missed something previous but What version of Eigen D does this need to work properly ?


At least version 1.4.7

@barnone
OK, glad you got it....this way we can have as many as we like, "patterns" has Geert mention.
What seem nice is to had them connect in other crazy ways...

@Larryhell
1.4.7 - "silent" is a new word to Belcanto

Hey guys, spent the morning making scripts for the first 4 scales. Because the first 2 scales use the same pattern, I made it so you can select to light just roots, roots + 5th or the full monty, root + 3rds + 5ths. This is all based on keymans script above.

zip file is here and there is this README inside

ALPHA Scale Indicators

README - Scale indicators for ALPHA

Prerequisites EigenD 1.4.7+

1. Place folder into your Eigenlabs scripts folder.
2. Start EigenD and load a setup you want to put indicators into
3. Open Eigenbrowser and Eigencommander
4. In Eigencommander type
eigenbrowser , interpreter hey script browse
5. Eigenbrowser should now be at the scripts folder. Navigate to the scripts
in this package and load each one. Click once to arm script and once more to
process it. Wait for it to say "succeeded"

When you press your Keygroup 1 mode key, you will see a column of 4 new red lights that are above the main bank of lights. These correspond to the first
4 scales, Major, Harmonic Minor, Melodic Minor and Chromatic.
The light pattern for Major, Harmonic Minor, Melodic Minor are identical however, this is setup so that:

Major - only lights roots.
Harmonic Minor - lights roots and 5th
Melodic Minor - light roots, 3rds and 5ths

You can use all of these 3 combinations with all three scales since the offset is the same for each.

In the case of chromatic, roots and 5th are lit.

NOTE: Selecting the indicators does NOT change the scale, you need to select, indicators, scale and instrument separately. Indicators and instrument must be selected simultaneously for both the indicators to be lit as well as the sound to be selected.

[EDIT] Hey, I was going to add this stuff to the Wiki here
http://www.eigenlabs.com/wiki/1.3/EigenD_Setups/

But, "edit" button is not enabled. Strangely it is enabled for the Wiki_Home page. Suggestions?

Hey guys.

So now I want indicators on the multi split setups.

Trying to add indicators to keygroup 2 in the 2 split setup.

I can get the talker to toggle, but the indicators don't light.

Any ideas?

description
MAJOR SCALE - TONIC red and 5th amber
0 - off
1 = green
2 = red
3 = amber
script
#SCALE 4 - CHROMATIC SCALE - tonic red and 5th amber

empty join
kgroup 2 hey
output 12 create
talker create
it to light chromatic talker name ify
kgroup 2 output 12 to light chromatic talker connect

kgroup 2 listen
light chromatic talker listen
interpreter listen

#CHROMATIC SCALE - TONIC red (n2)

" " when 1 silent do 1 to 2 colour ify
" " when 13 silent do 13 to 2 colour ify
" " when 31 silent do 31 to 2 colour ify
" " when 43 silent do 43 to 2 colour ify

keys 1 and 13 work for me, keys 31 and 43 are not part of kgroup 2 ;)
(This is the small kgroup at the upper side of the second split, it only consists out of 4x5 keys).

Yeah, I was being a total idiot. Forgot that there are many keygroups in the 5 split setup.

I was actually shooting for keygroup 6 and 7. Easy to see this on the Split tabs in Stage. You can change the scale and see which keygroup is in which position that way.

BTW, for anyone using Antonio's script, his line appears to be missing from the #MAJOR SCALE - 5th lit green (n1) :
" " when 62 silent do 62 to 1 colour ify
