My question is.
Does CSI car about on what channel the midi comes in?
Cause when I go to CSI learn mode and move the encoder, it seems to detect the "Fader" code that I've put in zon file.
Zon file
Code:
Zone "Home"
IncludedZones
"Buttons|"
"Channel|1-8"
IncludedZonesEnd
Fader TrackVolume
ZoneEnd
mst
Code:
Widget Fader
Fader7Bit b1 38 7f
FB_Fader7Bit b1 38 7f
WidgetEnd
But the fader of the track itself does not move. So I don't know if it's in my code or the Arduino itself the problem

You're missing a context.
Which TrackVolume do you wantt to control ?
The answer is supplied by a Navigator.
Notice in any Channel Zones as well as many others, there are various types of Navigators.

Hi again, here's my try with your suggestion.
That is why I was wondering if channel 2 could be an issu on my controller
If not, any other idea why?

Seby, it looks like you're missing a navigator as Geoff suggested. Try adding:
SelectedTrackNavigator
...to your .zon file if you want the fader to work on the selected track.

Ok, that was it, tks guy.
Btw, is there a full list WITH explanation of all the HardCoded Function available and with maybe on how to use it somewhere?
tks

The Feb 2nd build isn't working at all here. CSI is getting input from the surfaces, but the widgets aren't being mapped as defined in the .zon files. Going back to the Jan 16 build puts everything back to normal.
Was there another syntax change or any reason that the latest build might not work?

I had problems with the one before that. The one with curly brackets in the .ini file and learn mode shiwing up in actions. Learn mode doesnt show in actions and evry time i start reaper brackets go away.i tried brackets with spaces just like the csi.ini file that came with the download and then csi completely doesnt work. So im afraid to update to builds .evrything is working minus learn mode in actions so im gonna just stay with what i got b4 i really mess sometning up.its like my computer won't let me update

It really sounds like you have two versions installed somehow. Are you sure you don't have one in Program Files/REAPER/Plugins and another in AppData/Roaming/REAPER/UserPlugins?

The files should only be in one location. On my Windows system the .dll is in AppData/Roaming/REAPER/UserPlugins and the CSI folder is in AppData/Roaming/REAPER. I have nothing CSI related in Program Files/REAPER.

The weird thing is everything seems to be there, looks ok, and even the Learn Mode works, but the surfaces don’t do anything. Downgrade to the Jan 16 build and everything is gravy again.

Im not at my computer but now that i think about it i think what mixmonkey said might be right as far as my issue. I remember wen i first started csi the readme said to put .dll in plugins folder and I wasn't sure which one so i might've put it in both.so soon as i get jan16 build straightened out i will try the new one and let you know if it works for me unless you resolve it before that

Did you add the curly braces around the Page colours in CSI.ini ?

Yep. Curly brackets are there...
Code:
Page "HomePage" FollowMCP NoSynchPages NoScrollLink NoTrackColoring { 0 0 0 }
MidiSurface "MFTwister" 7 8 "MIDIFighterTwister.mst" "MIDIFighterTwister" NoZoneLink AutoMapSends NoAutoMapFX NoAutoMapFXMenu AutoMapFocusedFX
MidiSurface "CMC-QC" 10 11 "Stienberg_CMC-QC-2.mst" "CMC-QC-2_MixPage" NoZoneLink AutoMapSends NoAutoMapFX NoAutoMapFXMenu NoAutoMapFocusedFX
Page "Mix" FollowMCP NoSynchPages NoScrollLink NoTrackColoring { 0 0 0 }
EuConSurface "EuCon" 1 8 "EuCon" NoZoneLink 8 16 3
MidiSurface "MFTwisterMix" 7 9 "MIDIFighterTwister.mst" "MIDIFighterTwister_MixPage" NoZoneLink AutoMapSends NoAutoMapFX NoAutoMapFXMenu AutoMapFocusedFX
MidiSurface "CMC-QC_Mix" 10 11 "Stienberg_CMC-QC-2.mst" "CMC-QC-2_MixPage" NoZoneLink AutoMapSends NoAutoMapFX NoAutoMapFXMenu NoAutoMapFocusedFX
Note: this is with multiple pages setup, but I tried it with just one page and still no go. At first I thought the issue was actually related to the pages, but again, everything works on the Jan 16th build, but not on the Feb 2nd build.
And the multiple page thing is great. Thanks for that Geoff!

Yes and i kept checking to see if learn mode showed up in actions and it never did.and i noticed evry time i would restart reaper or the csi i would check the CSI.ini file and the braces would be gone. I put it out on the forum nobody could figure out why. But mixmonkey just replied that i may have different versions at the same time in each of the plugins folders .i think i remember doing that wen i first started CSI cause i wasnt sure which one .ill check wen i get to my computer.hopfully that's it.if i do have an old .dll in the main plugins folder would it be safe just to delete it ?

Nothing doing here either. Tried ditching the old CSI.ini and rebuilding, no good.

Also, I forgot about all the weird Eucon initialization bugs. I think I'm going to go back to my old CSI+legacy Eucon approach until things are further ironed out.
Geoff, I'll still be happy to test any new builds along the way. Particularly to troubleshoot whatever is going on with the groundhog day build.

Open plugin automatically on receiving midi.
Hi guys, little question for you.
I guess it's possible to do that, but was wondering if it already exist.
Let's say I have a Arduino or other controller assign to one plugin only, like dedicated to it.
If the FX is on the track and I move the controller, then it popup the plugin automatically to show it to me.
is it possible to do that?
tks

Went with appData. Yea i had an earlier .dll in program files and kept trying to update to the new build in appData and i guess it kept reverting back to the earlier build i had in Program files. Thanks man i never would've figured that out in a million years

From the CSI Readme.pdf...

64 bit - Put reaper_csurf_integrator64.dll in Program Files\Reaper 4 (x64)\Plugins\

In all seriousness, I'd get rid of the copies in AppData and keep the .dll in the Program Files\plugins folder.
CSI folder goes in AppData. The plugin goes in Program Files\Reaper\Plugins\.

That wouldn't have been me. I'd suggest keeping everything as documented just so there's one fewer thing to troubleshoot in case of issues.

Ok so you say i should put .dll in Program Files/Reaper/plugins and the CSI folder in appdata ?

Yep, exactly. That's what the CSI Readme indicates, so I'd just stick with that.
So over here:
.dll in C:\Program Files\Reaper (x64)\Plugins
CSI folder in C:\Users\[UserName]\AppData\Roaming\Reaper

Hello everybody! Quick question...
Code:
Zone Home
OnTrackSelection MapSelectedTrackSendsToWidgets
IncludedZones
"Buttons|"
"Channel|1-24"
IncludedZonesEnd
ZoneEnd
Zone "Buttons|"
[...]
ZoneEnd
Zone "Channel|"
[...]
ZoneEnd
Zone "Send|17-24"
SelectedTrackNavigator
Fader| TrackSendVolume < HERE IS THE PROBLEM
ZoneEnd
What am I doing wrong?
My goal is to assign faders 17-24 to control the first 8 sends of the selected tracks.
I would also like to do that to control plugins. But I have yet to find a way to designate groups of faders to work independently because... well... the above is the only idea I got. haha!
Thanks!
