(Solved)Can Api Be Used To Add Send Tracks?

[esaruoho]

hi, can the api be used to add send tracks?
i see renoise.song().send_track_count can be used to achieve the listing of current send track count, but can the api be used to add a send track?

renoise.song():insert_track_at(index)

index being a number equal or higher to master index.

renoise.song.api:

– Insert a new track at the given index. Inserting a track behind or at the
– Master Track’s index will create a Send Track. Otherwise, a regular track is
– created.
renoise.song():insert_track_at(index)
→ [new renoise.Track object]

renoise.song.api:

Yep. I’m not entirely sure why I’m having difficulties figuring out how to get the number of the master track…

[esaruoho]

okay… +2 it is

  
local stc=renoise.song().sequencer_track_count+2  
if renoise.song().send_track_count <4 then renoise.song():insert_track_at(stc)

local NOTE_TRACK = renoise.Track.TRACK_TYPE_SEQUENCER  
local MASTER_TRACK = renoise.Track.TRACK_TYPE_MASTER  
local SEND_TRACK = renoise.Track.TRACK_TYPE_SEND  
local master_track_index = nil  
  
for i = 1,#renoise.song().tracks do  
 if renoise.song().tracks[i].type == MASTER_TRACK then  
 master_track_index = i  
 break  
 end  
}

some code i wrote to get the master track

Tool: Write Bpm To Master Track

Every find yourself wanting to make a BPM automation easily? This script does it for you. It writes the current BPM to the first column in the Master track. Although if you are in a different column in the master track it will write it there. Set your BPM as usual then right click in the pattern editor and click the new menu option or you can create a key assignment. 2061 WriteBPM_2.7.0.xrnx 2746 WriteBPM_2.8.xrnx

if you just need to add a track at the end couldn’t you just do:
renoise.song():insert_track_at(#renoise.song().tracks)

@vV

  
local NOTE_TRACK = renoise.Track.TRACK_TYPE_SEQUENCER  
local MASTER_TRACK = renoise.Track.TRACK_TYPE_MASTER  
local SEND_TRACK = renoise.Track.TRACK_TYPE_SEND  
local master_track_index = nil  
  
for i = 1,#renoise.song().tracks do  
 if renoise.song().tracks[i].type == MASTER_TRACK then  
 master_track_index = i  
 break  
 end  
}  
  

This is more future proof than this?

local master_index = renoise.song().sequencer_track_count + 1

This looks fun, but got it working with the +2 method. I know it’s a hack but it seems to work.
