There are some plugins that have XY values + a Touch parameter. Korg Kaoss Pad being one of the best examples. XY Pad seems visually shows that its receiving touch data (click and hold) but it would be amazing if that could also be assigned to a parameter on an additional Setup button. For Kaoss Pad that would be basically to turn the fx on and off, but seems like this could be used in any number of creative ways for any plugin.
Have you tried to use a âdooferâ'?
one knob for X,one for Y and one for touch
Yes, im aware of doofers, but maybe I misunderstand what you mean. As far as I know we donât even need doofers to Automating the individual parameter. XY Pads (hardware and sims) often include touch, ON (touch/click and hold) OFF (release).
XY Pad already works great for tracking both X and Y at the same time, but touch has to be done separate as far as I know. So Id have to re-enact the performance as best as I could. (or are you saying you can make this work so Renoise ALSO tracks touch at the same time so it is written to a 3rd column during recording automation performance live? But either way, Renoiseâs XY Pad already visually shows a reaction to touch. Adding a 3rd Setup button for this would make the tool âcompleteâ. A very nice quality of life upgrade.
Are you sure this plugin send a cc for touch function?
Ok I see what you meanâŚYou want to control the plugin via XY pad
If you look at the gif on the original post I show that Renoise does receive the Touch values (lower left) for the Touch parameter, but only when clicking directly in the GUI. Also, when I record automation in Ableton Live it does record the touch parameter too.
ok
no touch function on XY pad
Maybe If you accept to use the XY pad with âauto resetâ enabled,you could do a trick
via âformulaâ,you can set a parameter if X or Y are not equal to 0.5
local function touch(A,B,C)
if(A~=0.5 or B~=0.5 or C>0.0)
then
return 1.0
else
return 0.0
end
end
y=touch(A,B,C)
Map x-axis to A, y-axis to B,KAOSS touchCC to CâŚââ
Renoise crashed while I was messing with this. thats a good sign right?
im a complete dummy when it comes to this. midi map doesnât want to map those. (im probably doing it wrong)
Midi Map seems like its waiting for hardware controller movement. When i click on a plugin parameter it just switches to trying to map that one to something instead
But also, jumping back to center might not be good for a lot of the effect on Kaoss pad as sometimes you want the decay of the effect that keeps going after you release. moving back to center would change the parameters. (X/Y are sometimes set to delay & reverb times, or any effects)
This is why they should just add Touch to XY Pad. But i do want to see how this sweet thing works you setup.
make a bug report and share the log file.
Each time I try to make your idea better,It introduce new problem
It will stay in this static formâŚtouch emulation only for the internal renoise XY pad
XY_pad_touch_emulation_.xrns (4.5 KB)
maybe someone who have this plugin (I donât) will find the solution
Not a good idea to rename FORMULA inputs
Oh sweet! i see what you mean with mapping now. Not âMidi mapâ. I had a brain fart and didnât realize i should expand X & Y outputs. i got it working. So it would still only automate X and Y but the touch parameter would be realtime on/off. Thats a smart solution. (sorry for my slow understanding)
SeriouslyâŚSometime I have some brain fart also
It can depend of the time you go to bedâŚafter midnight,Itâs more or less K.O from my point of viewâŚwhen your are not in a âfestâ
âfestâ is a game changer
I was tired yesterdayâŚBut your challenge was goodâŚThank you
My code was really ârustedâ
Coding is not like doing bicycle
More true when you donât remember 'langage" specification
LUA
in this case
If the Renoise team have integrated FORMULA
,itâs for a logical
reason
Coding is a powerfull tool
