Action Conditions: <>
« on: July 08, 2015, 11:33:52 PM »
Hi Alexey,

While integrating your latest additions (triggers, localized comp-type), i see again some more possiblities  ;D
This brings me to the question if it´s possible for you (without too much effort) to add conditions like "greater than", "less than"?
I already have states where this would be helpful (Shift:0/1/2) but i have some more ideas...
I know i can do it with duplicating the actions and adding/changing conditions, but i can imagine that this could be easy for you. If not, then don´t care, it´s not important, i just wanted to know...

PS: second (unrelated) question: i can´t find the general ProChannel On/off - does it exist?

I am thinking about it since long time... Even simple "not" could make many things easier, while still keeping conditions inside boolean logic. With "Greater then" it is going to drift toward normal programming language (lisp/fort). But the whole concept was to avoid exaclty that. It is possible to write any program in C++, AZ Controller is not required then.

1-2 actions I normally duplicate. For more I use "functions".

Every time I was about adding "not" I could find more or less elegant solution as well.

Where I was missing comparisons are values. Especially in case of "broken" parameters, like ProChannel EQ type. For that more general solution is planned.

Do you mean ProChannel module "on/off" (which has a chance to work) or ProChannel panel On/Off (which is not exposed in API) ?

that seems like a very good compromise!

yes, i mean the enabled-state of PC.
Not the Ctrl-I thing, which i know can only be toggled.

Global PC On/Off - not exposed (or I have not found it)
Module PC On/Off (universal) - does not work
 :(

I have remembered how I deal with "not". I just set another state (something like "_tmpYesNo") and then use it. The same for "< and >". That adds several actions, but the result is normally does not look horrible.
