Script Request Sticky?

[Triode]

This script would be nice: Set active takes in selected items to complementary colour of the track.

Context: I set reaper to colour my waveforms by the take colour and the items by the track colour. Highlighting significant parts of the take in the complementary colour will stand out nicely every time with the above script.

I have beer for you

[sephirious]

ive been working with multichannel audio recently and fell into an issue involving the existing glues .

i really need


"Glue items, ignoring time selection, including fade in/out (auto increase channel count with take fx)"



i tried my way around it and the best i was able to do was make an action to glue twice, but with 16 channel clips its gets really expensive on storage

the fades really throw me off and i need the channel count increase

thank you i dont know the protocol will putting email addresses in the forum so message me here or reply here and ill check back

thank you

This is the incredible smart Script: CS_Smart Trim Left Edge.lua

It is trimming and snapping the item edge to under the mouse cursor. It works great on one item, but not on items layered in free item positioning lanes. Is it possible to get the script understand the lanes and separate the lanes like if the items were on different tracks?

Hi
Can someone code this?
thanks

Xenakios/SWS: Switch item source file to next in folder

Only for audio files (wav,mp3).
Now the script would also load a midi file.

next_source = reaper.NamedCommandLookup("_XENAKIOS_SISFTNEXTIF")


function()reaper.Main_OnCommand(next_source,0)

The SWS switch will only be from the folder in which the source file is located, which is not suitable if the project is portable and has its own directory.

For midi, I have scripts - you need to select a folder, it is remembered for the project, then switch next / previous

Yannick_Add MIDI file into project - select folder for MIDI files and replace the take.lua
Yannick_Add MIDI file into project - switch next MIDI take from recent folder.lua
Yannick_Add MIDI file into project - switch previous MIDI take from recent folder.lua

"Script: Lokasenna_Delete note under mouse cursor.lua"

Hmmm, according to documentation, 'noteRow' should be the 3rd value returned, but is second in that code, so,..

I changed this line,

__, noteRow, __, __, __ = reaper.BR_GetMouseCursorContext_MIDI()

To this,

__, __, noteRow = reaper.BR_GetMouseCursorContext_MIDI()

And now it seems to work here.
Note, tested on Win10_x64, REAPER v6.59+dev0604/x64, SWS v2.13.1.0 (pre-release)

[jcfitn]

There are any way to make a script to use modifier with MIDI?

Example: you keep the ctrl down and you turn a knob for a different CC message.

Only for audio files - Archie has it, but if something doesn't work there, I'll make my own script

[Dragonetti]

Thanks Yanik
The Archie script does the right thing.
But it would still have to snap the individual items together.

Script: Archie_Item; Switch item source file to next in folder restore original size(only Audio).lua

EDIT:
1.Since I have to include the script in a larger one, I don't want an extra arc function(arc_function_lua.lua)
2.The upper track should be the main track, and the others should be some kind of copy, then it is also possible to add a random function.

I get this when try to replace this line with yours:

The line I changed has nothing to do with that error. The code should probably check if the Take is valid but since the script is supposed to be run from the MIDI Editor (with an active take) you should never get that error. Sorry but I'm not sure whats going on your end.

It's working now, thanks for the help!

Hi guys!

I have a script based on the old script from MPL: it goes through the items and marks (sets the Snap Offsets) the maximum peak at the beginning of each item.

Works great, but I have a quest that I can't solve: How to refine this script so that it marks not, conditionally, the loudest peak, but a quiet peak according to a thrashhold, in the sample decay, for example?


I tried changing the conditions in the original code, going through the buffer from the end to the beginning, but none of this worked. Unfortunately, my experience here is not enough even to get a starting point.

 items = reaper.CountSelectedMediaItems(0)

for i=0, items-1 do

   item = reaper.GetSelectedMediaItem(0,i);
     
      if item then
     
               take = reaper.GetActiveTake( item )

          if take then

              local source = reaper.GetMediaItemTake_Source(take)    
              local accessor = reaper.CreateTakeAudioAccessor(take)
              local srate = reaper.GetMediaSourceSampleRate(source)
              local chan = reaper.GetMediaSourceNumChannels(source)
              local buffsize = srate*2
              local buffer = reaper.new_array(srate*chan)
              
              reaper.GetAudioAccessorSamples(accessor, srate, chan, 0, srate, buffer)
          
     local sampleMax, maxPeakSample, sampleMax0 = 0
     local maximumHasNotBeenFound = true

    local previousSample = nil
    for i = 1, buffsize do
            
            local sample = math.abs(buffer[i])
            
            if i > 1 and sample < previousSample and previousSample > 0.5 then
                maximumHasNotBeenFound = false
            end

            sampleMax = math.max(sample, sampleMax)
            if sampleMax ~= sampleMax0 and maximumHasNotBeenFound then
                maxPeakSample = i/chan - 1
            end
            
            previousSample = sample
            sampleMax0 = sampleMax
    end
              
              pos = maxPeakSample/srate

              reaper.DestroyAudioAccessor(accessor)

              reaper.SetMediaItemInfo_Value(item, "D_SNAPOFFSET", pos)

end
end
end
reaper.UpdateArrange()

you have to code smoothed envelope follower, then find envelope fall/rise threshold crossing points + some closed points clever filtering. This is the way one of the part of Aligh Takes script works. You can PM me or ask in the MPL scripts common thread with more details. (sorry I don't follow such threads, only PM and dedicated threads I started)

[Pink Wool]

Would like a script to reset peak indicators after x seconds. Is this doable? Any takers?

Thanks in advance!

Is someone able to make a script that toggles the arming of send volume envelopes for the selected tracks.

Kind of surprised this doesn't exist already (SWS has an action for toggling receive envelope arming but not sends), but I searched around for awhile and couldn't find anything

Thank you! Any chance could make one that toggles arming for the width envelope as well?

you mean the width envelope for the current track? there's no send envelope for width AFAICT.

[RobinGShore]

Yep, I mean the width envelope for the currently selected tracks, nothing to do with sends.

[sockmonkey72]

That would look like this:

-- ToggleWidthEnvelopes.lua
-- sockmonkey72 / Jeremy Bernstein

count = reaper.CountSelectedTracks(0)
for i = 0,count-1 do
  tr = reaper.GetSelectedTrack(0, i)
  if tr then
    envCount = reaper.CountTrackEnvelopes(tr)
    for j = 0,envCount-1 do
      env = reaper.GetTrackEnvelope(tr, j)
      if env then
        _, name = reaper.GetEnvelopeName(env)
        if name == "Width" then
          _, state = reaper.GetEnvelopeStateChunk(env, "", 0)
          if state:match("ARM 1") then 
            state = state:gsub("ARM 1", "ARM 0")
          elseif state:match("ARM 0") then 
            state = state:gsub("ARM 0", "ARM 1") 
          end
          reaper.SetEnvelopeStateChunk(env, state, 1);
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

This only works for "Width" and not "Width (Pre-FX)", but it could be modified to work for both.

If somebody is up for the task I looking for

Action: Move selected item(s) loop section content right one grid unit
Action: Move selected item(s) loop section content left one grid unit

Alternative/and/or static options:
1/16 , 1/8 , 1/4 , 1/2 , 1/1 , 2/1 and 4/1


Not sure if it's an 'easy' task or not.... guess I will find out eventually

Awesome! Thank you Sockmonkey! Is there a way to terminate the script? Normally when you run the script the second time, Reaper asks you if you want that. For some reason not with this script? Any idea why?

Hey Pink Wool, I made a minor change to the case where clipping was manually reset (I just replaced the code in my post above), so you might want to grab that.

Anybody up for doing a script* which does fast forward/rewind a fixed (user settable) amount of seconds?

(Similar to native actions 'Transport: Rewind/Fast forward a little bit' but with fixed time).

Thanks.

*If negative time = rewind the script could easily be copied to make ff/rewind variants.
Otherwise one script for ff and one for rewind would also do.

Fast forward 1s.lua

amount = 1. -- 1 second

now = reaper.GetPlayStateEx(0) % 2 == 0 and reaper.GetCursorPositionEx(0) or reaper.GetPlayPositionEx(0)
now = now + amount
reaper.SetEditCurPos2(0, now, true, true)

Rewind 1s.lua

amount = 1. -- 1 second

now = reaper.GetPlayStateEx(0) % 2 == 0 and reaper.GetCursorPositionEx(0) or reaper.GetPlayPositionEx(0)
now = now - amount
reaper.SetEditCurPos2(0, now, true, true)

I guess these could be extended to permit some global preference to set what that fixed time should be, with some interface for setting it, but the actual, functional code is quite minimal.

I hope this isn’t too much to ask but I’m trying to learn scripting and haven’t seen what you did here yet and was hoping you could explain it.

It looks like it’s setting now to one function or the other depending on if Reaper is playing, I just don’t understand the (I’m assuming) shorthand. A quick google didn’t help so I thought I’d ask you

Hey Puck,

that "and"/"or" convention is the same as C's ?/: syntax for the ternary operator. It means (in pseudo-Lua syntax):

if (condition is TRUE) then
 do this
else
  do that
end

So in this specific case:

if reaper.GetPlayStateEx(0) % 2 == 0 then -- REAPER isn't playing
  now = reaper.GetCursorPositionEx(0) -- get the edit cursor position
else
  now = reaper.GetPlayPositionEx(0) -- get the playback position
end

[nofish]

^ Nice, I didn't know either. Thanks.

end

Thank you very much! I really appreciate you taking the time to answer.

So it's the presence of "and"/"or" that provides the logic (makes sense!).

But it does breed one more question:

I know from the API that reaper.GetPlayStateEX expects the reaproject and 0 = the active project, but I'm unsure why the "% 2" is there. The only thing regarding the % in lua I could find was the RegEx Pattern matching stuff, and I don't think that applies here. Can you explain that bit?

Sorry for taking the couple posts here in this thread to ask.

the position in the binary bitfield (below) corresponds to a value (above). A 1 in a position adds the value above to the final number. 0001 = 1, 0010 = 2, 0011 = 3 and so on. You probably know that already, but just for completeness.

In the docs for GetPlayStateEx(), it says:

&1=playing,&2=pause,&=4 is recording

which means that:

000 means stopped (0)
001 means playing (1)
010 means paused (2)
101 means recording (5)
110 means rec pause (6)

(I just tested these, so I know that's true).

so if I want to know if the transport is running, I check for the presence of a 1 in the 0th (rightmost) position (true for playing and recording, but false for stopped, paused and rec pause). Which is the same thing as an odd number. A good way to test for an odd number is the_number % 2 == 1. % is "modulo" and returns the remainder of a division operation.

So "reaper.GetPlayStateEx(0) % 2 == 0" means it's an even number, thus "the transport is not running".

Does that make sense?

YES!

Thank you!

Funnily enough my gut was saying that was the remainder operator, I was just trying to google to confirm and for some reason couldn’t find it. I had never dealt with a bit field so thanks so much for explaining that.

Like all things programming it breeds other questions but I’ve gone on long enough

That makes perfect sense though and it’s very clever. Thanks again!!

Does anyone know if "Move item loop section contents" from mouse modifiers have an API entry? But perhaps it's of no use for making the scripts I'm looking for since it's a drag function...?
