Default Mackie Control now with plugin control ;-) And with Action-Mode.

Attention: I have released a new version in the meantime. You can find it in this thread: http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.p...242#post758242

Merry Xmas Klinke.

What a present. I hope I have the brains to use this well, after all the effort you put in.

Thank you.

a) I was a little bit in hurry when i posted the thread start message, so i forgot to thank:

- Chris (cdoerman) for his Overlay (see section 8), parameter maps (e.g. take a look at the hugh Pod Farm map, it's an amazing work) and great help while beta-testing
- Ryan (yagonnawantthatcowbell) for a hugh contribution of parameter maps
- Miquel (anticlick), Alison and JosMuysers for beta-testing
- Justin for the improved Reaper API (and Reaper in general ;-))
- Jules for the great JUCE library

b) i'm offline till 5.January, so don't be angry when you get no answers on posts/messages/emails from me till then.

Best,
Klinke

Ed, you're going to want to paste the csurf dll in the reaper plugins folder. Then start reaper, head to preferences -> control surface and add new. If you've put the csurf dll in the correct folder you'll see it in the drop down menu.

It should work as long as they are in MCU emulation mode. I believe you will want to set one up as the main MCU and the other two up as extenders. Only the 1 that is set up as "the" MCU (not an extender) will control plug-ins/sends (as Klinke noted in his readme).

I used to have a BCF2000 and it seemed to work well in MCU emulation mode but I never used them as extenders. In theory, that should work too. I have since upgraded to a real MCU so I am no longer in the loop on the BCFs.

Hi Klinke,

I can't try your new version of plug-in because my WS is down in this moment. But I have a question for you???

In the readme file I don't find anything for the "open plug-in fx window" and I don't understand if it's is possible.

When I push plug-in button on MCU and I select a plug-in on the selected channel the plug-in GUI of the fx open or not???

For me is very important this feature (like PT with MCU-HUI) for a complete control and visual control of the work.

Thanks for your exceptional work and happy new year.

Klinke is offline until 5 January so I will jump in here as I had discussed this with him.

The answer is no... for now. This is currently not supported by the Reaper API but Klinke has been in touch with Justin about adding this functionality. It looks like it should happen at some point in the (hopefully not too distant) future.

Once the Reaper API supports this, Klinke should be able to update a future version to show a plugin's GUI onscreen when it is selected from the MCU.

However, one aspect of this that simply will not ever be possible is if the plugin GUI has "sub-pages". For example, some plugins have multiple screens (like advanced settings). The future update will only be able to open the main plugin GUI. If there are sub-screens that can be viewed by clicking on buttons within the main plugin GUI, etc - those will NOT automatically display. The only way to display any sub-screens will be to actually click on them.

Klinke has made an awesome work. I asked him if we should expect a x64 version but he said 'no' Too bad because I'd use this on a daily basis.

"Hi,

sorry, but I don't plan to build a 64bit version in the near future, I
have never setup a 64bit project and it seems to be some work (because I
have dependecy to other libraries which then also need to be build for
64bit). I will release the Source under GPL, so maybe someone else
can/will do it.

Best,
Steffen"

I have sort of a work around for this. I have an action assigned to the "midi tracks" global view key that opens the fx browser window for the last touched track. (kinda sucks that it doesn't follow track selections, but as long as I remember to touch the fader for the track I want to open the fx browser for, all is good)

Once the fx browser window is open, you can use the up and down arrows on your keyboard to scroll through the different plugs you have on that track.

I have a second action "close all floating windows (except mixer and dockable)" assigned to shift+"midi tracks" global button to close the fx browser when I'm finished editing the parameters.

works ok, no need to touch the mouse!

There is an option in Preferences>Plugins to force the FX rack follow track selections

Hi Klinke - I was just doing a quick forum browse and saw this thread: http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=50386.

It made me wonder if there was any support for this in the MCU plugin. My DAW is currently in the process of upgrade so it will be a few days before I have reaper/MCU running again. I saw you were planning a new plugin release so I figured I would toss this out for possible inclusion if it isn't already in there (I don't see anything after a quick search through the documentation).

This would certainly be helpful to access from the MCU. If it's already implemented, maybe it just needs to be added to the documentation.

Also, any sneak preview of what new fun will be included in the next release?

Thanks!

Yep, this was already implemented in the original MCU plugin, you can double-press the SOLO-buttons to cancel all other Solos.

The next version will be only a bugfix update, v0.7 will get some Mixer love and/or a simple Performance mode (the Fader will just send CCs and you can enter the text in the Display, but by assign the CCs to different Plugin-Parameters you can use this to control different Plugins at once in a live-situation).
