Dac 2 the outer wheel seemingly cannot be made to work like it did before as a high-speed seek. To compensate, I'm using the forward and backward buttons which I also want to use to set the loop duration.
I set the shift button up like this:
set "shift" 1 while_pressed
and I set the forward and back buttons like this:
var_equal "shift" 1 ? seek +2 : loop_double
var_equal "shift" 1 ? seek -2 : loop_half
The buttons will only affect the loop and won't seek regardless of whether the shift button is pressed or not.
I set the pitch slider to this:
var_equal "shift" 1 ? pitch_slider : video_crossfader
The slider works exactly as you would predict, it is a video crossfader until you press shift and then it becomes a pitch slider. The syntax is the same for this as above for the forward and backward buttons, but while it works for this it does not for those buttons.
Just to trouble shoot, I set up the FX button like this:
toggle "shift"
and this makes the backwards and forwards buttons as well as the pitch slider work. Push FX once, they perform action1, push it again, they perform action2
Why does it work with toggle "shift" and not set "shift" 1 while_pressed ?
I'd just work with the toggle but I'm afraid I'll forget what function they're set to.
Help is appreciated, TIA!
