ModulationEditor - overview and edit project parameter links, LFO, audio control

Requirements:

REAPER 6.71+
ReaPack 1.2.1+

Install:

run ActionList > ReaPack: Browse packages...
navigate and install (rightclick) LearnEditor and Various_functions packages, then click 'Apply'
run ActionList > ReaPack: Synchronize packages

Wow that looks very useful! Great , I'm going to try it, thank you very much!

X-Raym · 05-01-2020, 08:55 AM

This promises to be very handy, it is definitely a widow missing from REAPER native.

Maybe it will inspire devs indeed :P

Thx for your work !

Georgedayren · 05-03-2020, 02:31 AM

good work! very useful for big live projects

Hartley Mays · 05-03-2020, 05:13 AM

MPL,

Can this script be used along with Realearn on the same tracks, or should one or the other be used exclusively?

Thanks,
Hartley

If it is possible to use TrackFX_Get(Set)NamedConfigParm then yes, I can make ReaLearn configuration support AND native learn in one window.

I don`t really know is that supported for REAPER VST plugins. So it is request more to Helgoboss. And if not - request for Cockos for making it available in the SDK for REAPER VST plugin developers.

Nice

Thanks for sharing.

Export to and import from .csv?

I would suggest not wasting time with Realearn, as it has crashing cases. If nobody experienced those, then good for them. For sure I will not use anything related to Realearn.

Regarding removing old actions, this is a bad style, maybe some people were using those, so with your removing you are destroying their future update compatibility, in case they want to reinstall all on a new machine or so. Why not keeping all older stuff, adding new, with different names, no problem at all.

The issue is old stuff implemented badly and not completely safe. I will rewrite it for sure and will share it to others if requested API will be implemented natively. After packages synchronization ReaPack asks for scripts removing. Anyone need deprecated script can just not allow ReaPack to remove it.

TonE · 05-16-2020, 08:31 AM

Ok, thanks for your clarification, and keeping on topic, contrary to some of your past posts, great improvement in style, thanks for this my friend.

mpl · 05-17-2020, 07:18 AM

mpl_Show and arm envelopes linked to learn for selected tracks.lua was removed from repository and integrated into LearnEditor.

Also I`ve build a parameter modulation data parser/generator, so it is now support changing parameter modulation values.

daniellumertz · 05-18-2020, 12:41 PM

Hi mpl, trying your script found this:

I think it is being caused by the channel number. When I learn some MIDI CC on channel 1 this don't happen. Thanks!

That seems wrong reading MIDI CC byte (writing is ok). So this should be fixed for 1.06

mpl · 05-19-2020, 12:19 AM

mpl_Parameter Modulation Viewer and mpl_Assign audio input parameter modulation with last touched parameter.lua removed from ReaPack

Link last two touched FX parameters added to LearnEditor as an internal action instead.

I know this is not an official FR - but +1 on this - especially for Learn parameters.

musicbynumbers · 05-22-2020, 03:42 AM

Nice!

I was just searching for your scripts and came across this as a bonus!

Was actually looking for the one where you could control many parameters with one other control but where you also allow some handy manipulation of those slave parameters.

I recall you updating it but I didn't get the new version yet so was looking to try it out again

EDIT: found it!

dupont · 01-12-2021, 06:15 AM

Hi,

MPL, is it possible to view the assign parameter of plugins inserted in the master ?
Also letter font is blurry and too little on 5K screen.

Vagelis · 03-20-2021, 06:56 AM

One of the most useful scripts, Cockos should do something like this natively.

MonkeyBars · 10-01-2022, 05:09 PM

Really cool tool, mpl! Thanks

mpl · 10-01-2022, 08:29 PM

This will be also rebuilt using upcoming functions for get/set learn and modulation from API. Mentioned actions will be separated back.

Amazing! Any idea when those API additions are planned to enter development?

playpm · 10-07-2022, 01:45 AM

Thanks for this convenient pack! However I found a bug wish it can be fixed, the learnEditor won't show any mapping information for the master track, other tracks are ok.

I cleared everything and rebuild this from scratch using new API (thanks to Justin). This should handle master track learn also. Let me know if you need some other learn related actions.

TonE · 01-06-2023, 02:01 AM

Wow, looks great, midi learn is most important topic in my opinion, regarding management of hardware controllers use together with Reaper, thus converting any RPP into a hardware 'feeling'. There is Realearn, now also this. I have an idea, of CSV export and import of all RPP midi/osc mappings, line by line per mapping, so those could be manipulated outside of Reaper as well, and back reimported. Mainly for name and rule based mapping manipulations using some programming language outside of Reaper. Then we would have 3 options,
1. mpl_LearnEditor 2,
2. realearn,
3. CSV export/import of all mappings (for rule and track,fx,parameter name based manipulations outside of Reaper).
Thanks for sharing, looks wonderful.

I can imagine in this current screenshot, on most left, there could be one more level, box with arrow, where you could write your hardware description, e.g. LPD8 top left button, for example, or LPD8 button 1x1, meaning row 1, column 1... So user would know which hardware component is outputting this midi/osc event as well, directly in this LearnEditor 2 interface / gui.

Only if there is CSV export/import as well, with track,fx,parameter names per mapping and non-mapping. Each available parameter in RPP should be one line in this CSV, no matter if midi/osc mapped or not.

Vagelis · 01-06-2023, 03:14 AM

Sorry but I can't see any nodes or anything in GUI, what am i doing wrong?

Maybe try to resize the window. For some reason all MPL's scripts open in very small windows.

Is it docked? Undock it and resize to almost whole screen.

I've synchronized packages and get same behavior. Looks like a bug.

Are you sure you have REAPER 6.71+?

Please share RPP (ideally with Reaper plugins with learn that doesn`t shown in LearnEditor).

Just Cockos plugins.

Are you sure you actually linkув plugin parameter to a MIDI controller in a normal way (move param -> plugin header -> Param -> Learn)?

Alias for control nodes also added for 2.01. This isn`t exported/imported since aliases stored globally in the reaper-ext.ini
