Topic: Issue with Effects using my controller

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Hi,
got the problem with selecting an other effect (e.g. echo) while having an effect running. By using the effect selector knob on my controller (AA VMS 5) switching effects will be shown on the screen but the activ effect will be turned off. Same issue I found at master effect by clicking the arrow keys (effect select +1 / -1)... For me it would be better if the status (on/off) would be saved.

Yes, by default when you select an Effect, it turns off the previous one. This behavior can be changed if effect_select_multi action is used instead of effect_select.
Since its not that easy to change the skin (requires some XML edits), what you can do is ..
- Create a Skin Custom button with the following action..
toggle '$multifx'


- Edit the mapping of VMS5 and have the FX_SELECT and FX_SELECT_PUSH keys mapped as ..
var '$multifx' ? effect_select_,multi : effect_select


When the Custom button is ON, you have multi selection (doesnt turn off the previous FX) and when Off, you get single FX
