Topic: connect to QLC+

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Hi,

I have tried the VDJ OS2L connection to QLC+, and got it to work!
So I can transfer the beat to QLC+, and also some buttons mapped to the pads of a deck.

But I have seen other software (soundswitch or de VDJArtnet interface) also transfer waveform info, so also the intensity of the lights is controlled.

Anyone ideas or tips?

thx,

Ben

yes, provided some pad for that but were refused yesterday

QLC+ can receive almost anything using OS2L
a BUG? in VDJ needs you to send commands like this : " <whatever you want> & param_multiply 2.55 & os2l_cmd 1000"
where 1000 is the OSL2 slider chanel you assign to your function in your qxi (QLC+ InputProfile file)

working on this sporadicaly

<Model>VirtualDJ DMXSliders</Model>
<Type>OS2L</Type>
<Channel Number="0">
<Name>cmd0</Name>
<Type>Button</Type>
</Channel>
....
<Channel Number="1000">
<Name>DMX-1</Name>
<Type>Slider</Type>
</Channel>
<Channel Number="1001">
<Name>DMX-2</Name>
<Type>Slider</Type>
</Channel>

if you wanna play with VDJArtnet latest aka stable DMXArtNetNtx with external config tool
per deck config 512 chanels 4 universes & extra functions per instance ... it is in use it for years now without any issue
- simple to make usable, difficult to make in use, needs to program every chase & functions -
the same as OS2L so that not really usefull unless you need deep scripting & chanel back reference related functions
there is no returned info with both and QLC+

Thx for the feedback,

I do not really get how i can add this to OS2L output from VDJ.
So by pressing a button i could have the intensity of played song out the QLC?
can this be done so that it is doing this continuously?

Do you have a download link for the Artnet pluginn and presets?

thx,

Ben

a simple custom slider can do
set dmx026 & nothing & param_multiply 2.55 & os2l_cmd 1026

but any function can too i.e. as an action cue:
level & param_multiply 2.55 & os2l_cmd 1026

Q:"pressing a button i could have the intensity of played song out the QLC?
A: "yes" just use a rsi in a custom button or pad :

repeat_start songlevelrpt ? repeat_stop songlevelrpt : repeat_start songlevelrpt 170ms -1 & level & param_multiply 2.55 & os2l_cmd 1026
you may need to specify "deck master" if needed

badly home users can't post links here, QLC+ forum have it though
as well as locodog if i remember correctly
