K3 Mod Wheel Script

I need a script that does something like ...

if note is equal to 25, 26, 27 or 28 ... set mod wheel position to 100 percent (up) and play the note down 2 octaves ...

else set mod wheel to 0 percent (down).

Can I get some help with this?

That is to say, if the note is in an array (25, 26, 27, 28) maximize the mod wheel position and play the note one 2 octaves below the orignal pitch. Otherwise, be sure that the mod wheel is minimized and play the note as-is.

Any help would be great.

 

Hi!

Try this one!

I fear that this is far more than what I need.

Is there a method that is more simple and efficient?

 

Looks to me like g.h. delivered exactly what you were asking for. (Good job, g.h.) What is it about the script that you think is not simple?

 

Oh I just don't know what I'm looking at, really. I'm new to scripting and anxcious to play. I'll try and make sense of it but if anyone is up for giving an explaination / comments on what is happening in the code I'd be very grateful. Don't bother with it if you don't have time though. Thanks for the script

 

If you want to get into scripting, may I suggest you got to this forum:

http://vi-control.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=65

People there are very helpful... and there are a lot of resources there.

Cheers,

PS. I'm not at my studio so I can't check it, but I think this code will also do what you want... and is a little simpler. Just copy/paste the code below into your Scripting editor and hit the Apply button:

Code:

on note
  if (in_range($EVENT_NOTE,25,28)
    set_controller (1,127)
    change_note($EVENT_ID,$EVENT_NOTE-24)
  else
    set_controller (1,0)
    exit    
  end if
end on

 

Here's a simpler script (please change the 25-28 values yourself if needed):

Code:

on init
  declare const $LOWEST_NOTE  := 25
  declare const $HIGHEST_NOTE := 28
end on

on note
  if (in_range($EVENT_NOTE, $LOWEST_NOTE, $HIGHEST_NOTE))
    set_controller(1, 127)
    change_note($EVENT_ID, $EVENT_NOTE-24)
  else
    set_controller(1, 0)
  end if
end on

You can view it syntax highlighted (easier to read) here.

Great contributions, guys. Robin, being new to scripting I'm sure this stuff can be a bit intimidating. Some of us "code monkeys" tend to take it for granted, so don't be shy about asking what is going on.

When you look at some of the scripts that NI has created - like for the Akkord guitar - it's pretty hairy. (The Akkord script is close to 1800 lines of code.) So my take is that anything under 50 lines is usually pretty lean stuff.

I'm a software developer myself, but haven't really done any scripting in KONTAKT yet, so I'm using this as an incentive to get into it as well...

 

Intimidating yes and intimidating no. I do php and cgi web dev myself. The simplified renderings behave more adequately thus far. However, My new problem is that the controller change isn't sounding until after the note being played initiates it.

That is to say, "note is played and then note after it reflects the controller change"

Any solutions?

 

I'm not sure I'm following you. Are you saying that when you play midi note 25 (C#1) followed by (say) midi note 60 (C3) that the CC1 is not being set to 0 when you play C3 the first time?

After any line saying "set_controller (1,[...])" try to insert a new line saying "cc_delivery_request(1)" (without the quotes). Don't forget to press the Apply button in the Kontakt Script Editor for the changes to take effect.

 

Where did you find that command Nils ?

 

See http://www.vi-control.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7679

 

heh heh... but you still don't say "where" or how you found that command

Thanks for the response. adding "cc_delivery_request(1)" to a line AFTER the set_controller line didn't work either, though.

@Thonex - I'm suggesting that when I play midi note 25 (actually it's an array of other note options), the CC1 data is not INSTANTLY heard. Rather, it's heard in the note that is played afterwards.

I want to change the CC1 data and hear the change within the sample on a per note basis. i.e. I play a note which then changes the CC1 and plays the sample which reflects the change.

Here's my code thus far:

Code:

on init
declare $alternate
end on
on note
if (in_range($EVENT_NOTE,67,72))
set_controller (1,127)
cc_delivery_request(1)
change_note($EVENT_ID, $EVENT_NOTE - 24)
else set_controller (1,0)
cc_delivery_request(1)
end if
if ($alternate = 0)
$alternate := 1
else if ($alternate = 1)
change_note($EVENT_ID, $EVENT_NOTE - 24)
$alternate := 0
end if
end if
end on

 

Anyone?

 

Try substituting the change_delivery_request line with:

wait (1)

if that doesn't work, try wait (10).... I'm not sure why it's not working... again I haven't tried this in my studio, but it should work.

Let us know.

Thanks T,

I'll try that and if it doesn't work, I'll move it over to the VI forum.
