Setting Local FX via Lua API

Renoise Tool Development

Hello all! New to renoise and really enjoying it.

I am wondering how to set the local fx of a note column via the Lua API. The documentation covers setting a track’s master fx, but I can’t seem to find how to set local fx. Is this supported?

Thanks

AFAIK local note column effect can be changed. I think that formatted html documentation that you have linked hasn’t been updated to 3.1? If you look at the API documentation that comes with Renoise 3.1 you have:

renoise.song().patterns[].tracks[].lines[].note_columns[].effect_number_value
  -> [int, 0-65535 in the form 0x0000xxyy where xx=effect char 1 and yy=effect char 2]
song().patterns[].tracks[].lines[].note_columns[].effect_number_string
  -> [string, '00' - 'ZZ']
renoise.song().patterns[].tracks[].lines[].note_columns[].effect_amount_value 
  -> [int, 0-255]
renoise.song().patterns[].tracks[].lines[].note_columns[].effect_amount_string
  -> [string, '00' - 'FF']

That worked! Thank you! Is this considered the up to date documentation?

That should be okay, of course you are relying on the repository maintainer to update the file(s) (if need be.) Anyway the Renoise 3.1 lua API is currently at version 5 :slight_smile:
