description: | Groupmaster control for Groups in the Fixtures and Playbacks workspace |
Useful for groups which you don't change that often, which you dont give a real fader and rather use some buttons for just up/down.
functions
affected properties
There is a file available which has these macros already prepared for groups on preset buttons 1~10: adb_groupmaster.xml.
Code
These are examplary for handle 1 in the fixtures and playbacks workspace Set to full <step>Group.SetGroupFaderLevel("Presets", 0, level:1, Global.PageSwitchAccuracy)</step> Set to 50% <step>Group.SetGroupFaderLevel("Presets", 0, level:0.5, Global.PageSwitchAccuracy)</step> Add 10% <step>Group.SetGroupFaderLevel("Presets", 0, levelDelta:0.1, Global.PageSwitchAccuracy)</step> Subtract 10% <step>Group.SetGroupFaderLevel("Presets", 0, levelDelta:-0.1, Global.PageSwitchAccuracy)</step>
Explanation
This explains the functional steps within the sequence. For all the other XML details please refer to Formats and syntax
Group.SetGroupFaderLevel
does exactly that: sets a group master to a designated - absolute or relative - level. For more details see Group.SetGroupFaderLevel.
How to use it
- create some groups, and copy them to buttons 1~10 in the Fixtures and Playbacks window (this is another window than the Fixtures window! You get it via [Open Workspace Window] [Fixtures and Playbacks]).
- now, with the macros mapped to buttons, you can control the 'virtual group faders'
