Re: Show Buddy Active TouchOSC Address
However, using /dmxis/ch/... works to change the banks and presets in SBA on my laptop, but TouchOSC on my tablet would not receive those changes until I made the object /sba/ch/... Thanks for that! Reading the documentation ( https://www.dmxis.com/release/SBA/Show%20Buddy%20Active.pdf ), I could n...

Project: Controlling lights and sound with PowerPoint
Greetings all, I'm a happy owner of DMXIS and ShowBuddyActive. Recently, I wanted to control my light rig while presenting slides with PowerPoint. I wrote a tool which I released for free in Open Source: https://github.com/ojacques/PowerPointToOSC https://github.com/ojacques/PowerPointToOSC/raw/main...

Re: Dmxis w/Ableton Live - works only for 5min
Try moving your DMXIS to Ableton's master track. I believe this is in the DMXIS documentation: Ableton shuts down tracks VSTs if they don't output audio (which dmxis doesn't) to preserve CPU. Solution is to have DMXIS on the master track.
Hope this helps.

Re: Fade duration on preset gets corrupted
Couple quick questions as I’ve never had this issue. 1. When this happens, does it happen on all presets? I'm not 100% sure, but it seems it is always the same presets which get affected. 2. Are you using a midi controller to control SBA? I guess yes: SBA is a VST plugin on the master channel of Ab...

Fade duration on preset gets corrupted
I need help. Using SBA 2.0.11 on Windows. I can see the same issue with the VST plugin version or full desktop app. The issue: * Sometimes, when selecting presets (I have a long list), the "fade" information can become corrupted, jumping to 17+ seconds, like this: https://imgur.com/a/h4bQB...

I'm sorry, *I* did not read properly.
You're right, I have not been able to generate a ping pong chase like what you describe.

Re: Back and fourth chase?
I do this all the time. I guess you use an oscillator. Which type do you use? A sinusoidal or triangle will do the trick.
Can you do a screenshot of your dmxis screen / cue ?

Wish: add midi note next to preset
I would like to be able to quickly identify which midi note I should use to select a given present (through midi). When I'm programming my show, I spend a lot of time to find out how to trigger a given preset. After a lot of trial and error, I end up finding the right one. It would be nice to see th...

Re: Upgrading to Showbuddy active
It did for me (you can verify with the demo version). But I just took a backup, just in caseActually I believe it will do that automatically when you install SBA

Re: VST plugin and Midi Controller to control banks and presets
I don't know myself. But I want to find out as I have the same use case: a pre programmed show from Ableton, on top of which I'd love to add some overrides (strobos, blinders) through midi.

Re: Assign Akai Midi Key to Preset
Make sure your controller sends to midi channel 14 which seems to be the default for SBA. Or change SBA to listen to another midi channel.

Just a quick feedback on SBA, as I'm converting few songs from DMXIS to SBA (demo for now, evaluating). As a very heavy user of DMXIS since 2015, I'm not lost with SBA. Interface is pretty familiar; bank / presets / oscillators, everything I liked is there. What find really interesting is the effect...

Re: VST plugin and Midi Controller to control banks and presets
Does anyone know how I can have my VST plugin listen to the desired midi channel (say for example channel 9) and react when I press on the button? while also change on channel 15 & 16 when prgrammed to? In SBA, from what I can tell (and DMXIS which seems to work the same way), each preset can a...

Re: DMXis Macro - manage moving head targets for show
Just stopping by for a BIG "thank you". Did a full show programming with rad3d's solution - and it worked like a charm. Cool stuff. May be worth uploading to https://github.com/ and share the code there as an Open Source project.
