Topic: VDJscript: de-activate fx when backspin is performed
Hey folks,
I'm now wondering for months how to make my beginners life a bit easier.
When dancefloor is burning and the massive in good mood, I love to do some rewinds/pullups/backspins from time to time.
Therefore I reduce the volume a bit and active some fx manually. When the backspin is finished and the track is playing "normally", I have to bring both adjustments back to its previous condition.

Sometimes I forget to do so which ends up in unwanted sound waste.

So I tried to solve this issue with some scripting - unfortunately without success.

Is it possible to write some code that detects, if a song is played backwards and then f.e. deactivates fx in the moment, the song is running normal again?

Thanks for any hints or examples!!!

Holy ***, thanks locodog for this example!
One more question to this: So far I only have some experience in adding code to a specific trigger (button/knob) in the controller mapper.
Where do I have to put your snippet? Is there an action needed to activate the desired behavior?

Sorry for that noob question!

Cheers
Greg


EDIT: I added the code to a custom button and something is happening! So I'll play around with that. THANK YOU!
