2) you can rename the "stable" reaper_sws.dll you are using (or .dylib on OS X) into something like __stable_reaper_sws.dll, and then install the SWS beta (this way, you can restore the backup/stable version at any time). Quote:
Feel free to update the doc, but may be wait for the next few SWS versions to come: things will probably evolve again (moving some code from a separate extension to the SWS open source...). BTW, may be I'll tweak this doc too... Do you have an editable version of doc to share? (googledoc or something?) Last edited by Jeffos; 02-08-2016 at 03:31 PM. |

Hi Jeffos!
Thanks so much for the update!! Eight configs is a nice number, indeed! I am designing a setup for a band I will join again after some break, and Live Configs are a great tool; Reaper´s community cannot thank you enough for your achievement. One question : is it possible to load for each FX a set of fxps? In the Set Preset menu, I see the fxp format mentioned, but it doesn´t seem to allow loading it. Right now, for the type of maneuvers we´re needing in this project - and mainly due to Reaper´s handling of its own preset system, in a global fashion -, I´m using Bidule in a Reaper´s track to host FXs and handle presets and programming in the most flexible way. Nevertheless, I´m using extensively Live Config´s Monitor Window, which is just perfect to have feedback of the changes I trigger with a left-foot pedal, and I even integrate it with your wonderful MIDItoReaControl plug, which allows me to send back some manipulated CC in Bidule to ascend/descend through the Config list in sync with Bidule´s changes (!) Right now, I have to say everything is gorgeous regarding this tool. If you want a couple of ideas, I can leave the following to your consideration : - An option to go back (in all simultaneous) configs to a user-specified slot with a dedicated action. For example, I´m using CC24 to load next slot and CC25 to go back to the previous one. With this idea, CC26 (assigned to this new action) could go back to 0, 1 or any slot number one specifies... - An option to float independently and/or simultaneously the monitor windows of all Configs. Not right now, but at some point, I´ll be in charge of a project with 5 controllers and 2 voices. If you´re in the computer supervising everything, it could be useful to have an insight of the changes of each performer - with the possibility to trigger a change if something went wrong with one of them -. Just a couple of ideas, in case you consider them of any value. As I said before, Reaper´s preset handling needs a revision, for my taste, but this tool is already, as mschnell says, a wonderful approach to using Reaper as a live musical instrument. Greets! |

With this additional level of abstraction you can set up the LiveConfigs table just according to the sounds/patches, independently form the performance you are planning. This Toolset also features a nice sizable display. -Michael |

Well, that sounds incredibly useful! Have you publicly released any of them?

Please read the description here -> http://www.bschnell.de/patch.pdf If you think you like it I will send you the files and we can work together on extending it to Midi receiving (please send me you e-mail address in a personal message). -Michael |

Did that and installed the new prerelease version (Windows X64). In my setup, it did not work right away: It did not react on the messages sent. later this day, I will try to learn the messages again. -Michael |

Hi Jeffos,
After Re-learning the CC it seems to work as expected. The Content of the Config I used (Just #1) seems still completely in place. So it's just a very small glitch that the new version did not automatically understand the learned CC and channel. Is there anything I should especially test with LiveConfigs ? -Michael |

Hi,
Thanks for the great work! I was just about to write about not being able to switch configs using automation, but I found your MidiToReaControl plugin and now it works! Crazy stuff is possible here, working on it |

In fact I don't know who provided the extremely useful MidiToReaControlPath VST.
Anyway, great that you got up to speed ! (Do you remember that in August I pointed you to -> http://www.bschnell.de/LiveConfigs_1.pdf ? ) Have fun ! -Michael Last edited by mschnell; 03-27-2017 at 10:20 PM. |

Now you can use a LiveConfigs page ("Config") to fire those actions upon an incoming midi CC event. If your "button" creates other midi events than CC you would need to use a JSFX as converter and use MidiTopReaControlPath to sent the CC to LiveConfigs. With that Reaper can do stuff some will need to engage Ableton Live. See -> http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=144207 Reaper Rocks -Michael |

(Using OSCIIBot as a sender) I can learn "/blabla" but "/blabla/f/107"does not switch the config-line I tested learning in LiveConfigs itself and learning the action in the action list. BTW.: what is meant by the colomn title "comment / OSC message" regarding OSC ? -Michael |

Issue with CC send
Hi folks,
I'm not sure this is the right topic to discuss this, but I got an issue with Live Config and cannot understand what goes wrong ! So, here is a GIF to a better understanding of my problem : https://i.imgur.com/XnZfZbb Easy step to reproduce : 1- Open Reaper and create 4 tracks. 2- Set the MIDI input and all other stuff in TRACK 1 which will be INPUT track 3- Set the 3 others tracks with different instruments/VSTi 4- Set SWS/S&M: Live Config #1 - Apply config (MIDI/OSC only) to CC14 5- As you can see in the GIF (ReacontrolMIDI on track INPUT), CC14 send value 0, then 1 then 2, then 3 But Live Config doesn't change the patch/slot (don't know the right word). How can I debug this ? Last edited by daeavelwyn; 09-06-2020 at 04:21 AM. |

What kind of event do you create to make the LiveConfig "page" switch to another "line" ? You might want to take a look at the sicky thtread in this forum and the revised LiveConfig manual at http://www.bschnell.de/LiveConfigs_1.pdf -Michael |

Hi mschnell,
Ok so, after hours of fighting with those stuff I found the solution. MIDI Shortcut HAS TO BE SET TO "ABSOLUTE" It was set to relative by default.... So thanks for your help and for the PDF, this little sentence Quote:
now start the funnier part, play music ! |
