Topic: repeat_start for beat aware fx

Dieses Thema ist veraltet und kann veraltete oder falsche Informationen enthalten.

I'm trying to have an automatically beat aware fx with script,but I'm foggy with what I can do with variables
What I need is to compare startBeat to nowBeat and if the difference => 8 stop the repeat script and stop the fx

How do I compare 2 variables (can I do it at all?)
or should I compare startBeat (+8) to the param get_beatpos?
This is what I have so far

effect_active "echo" 1 & get_beatpos & param_add 8 & param_cast & set "startBeat" & repeat_start_instant "beatWatch" 33ms & get_beatpos & param_cast & set "nowBeat" & (somehow compare vars, =>) ? repeat_stop "beatWatch" & effect_active "echo" 0 : nothing

param_bigger can be used for that.
It can accept 2 actions as parameters, so you can have
param_bigger "get_var 'var1'" "get_var 'var2'" ? this : that

Thanks for that, I forget that vars can be called as params with "get"

There's a problem here, I think

get_beatpos & param_cast & set 'nowBeat' & get_beatpos & param_add 8 & param_cast & set "startBeat"

works, but adding repeat_start into the equation and it doesn't work out

get_beatpos & param_cast & set 'nowBeat' & get_beatpos & param_add 8 & param_cast & set "startBeat" & repeat_start_instant "name" 33ms & get_beatpos & param_cast & set 'nowBeat'

have a try to script the original idea and tell me if it's a bug or user error.

It's a bit complicated why the script isn't working like you wrote it, but an easier way to write it is:

get_beatpos & param_cast & set 'nowBeat' & get_beatpos & param_add 8 & param_cast & set "startBeat" & repeat_start_instant "name" 33ms -1 0 & set 'nowBeat' '`get_beatpos'

Thanks that works, -1 for infinite repeats, Zero for ?

For anyone wanting this here's an example with echo for 8 beats, change "param_add 8" to whatever length you want.

effect_active "echo" & get_beatpos & param_cast & set 'nowBeat' & get_beatpos & param_add 8 & param_cast & set "startBeat" & repeat_start_instant "rsiBeatWatch" 33ms -1 0 & set 'nowBeat' '`get_beatpos' & param_smaller "get_var 'startBeat'" "get_var 'nowBeat'" ? nothing : repeat_stop "rsiBeatWatch" & effect_active "echo"

I don't think the -1 and 0 are necessary actually, was just testing while trying to get the original script to work.

Another one, I'd like to change this

slip on & loop 0.5 & repeat 235ms & down ? key 0 ? key -1 : key -1 ? key -2 : key -2 ? key -3 : key -4 : loop 0 & key 0 & slip off

from a static (preset bpm) press and hold, to a dynamic single press, I've got ideas to use similar to above but of course being in a loop means it won't work the same. So I've ideas to query the in loop pos, but if I could query the slip position it'd be less brain ache.

Can I query the slip position?
