okey, actually I read through the VisualMIDI Guide and it seemed logical but when I tried it didn't worked out that well.
The issue was, that I wanted to implement the loop section for deck A and C. For deck a everthing worked but it didn't for C. Everytime I pressed something it also activated the it deck A also.
My solution
Modifire #1 for switching between A and C
M1=0 Value 1 Deck A
M1=1 Value 0 Deck C
Modifire #3 for switching between loop and transport mode
M3=0 Value 1 loop mode off
M3=1 Value 0 loop mode on
and now every button in loop mode deck C has condition M1=1 and M3=1
The problem was that I forgot/ didn't know to put a second condition
Next problem is, that I don't know how to implement a thrid function to the buttons, as mentioned in my former post.
You can only have two modifiers per button.
So if you, hypothetically, have 8 buttons that set different values for the modifiers (M1=0, 1, 2, 3 and M2=0, 1, 2, 3) then each button can have a large number of commands.
Your combinations include
M1=0 M2=0
M1=1 M2=0
M1=2 M2=0
M1=3 M2=0
M1=0 M2=1
M1=0 M2=2
M1=0 M2=3
M1=1 M2=1
M1=2 M2=1
etc, etc, etc, etc, etc. That's just with two modifiers and 4 values. Also keep in mind that you can set buttons to go to the "Next" Modifier value so it can cycle through all 8, just need to have some sort of output to alert you as to what value you're on, I guess
Hmm, so is this possible?:
Modifire #2
M2=0 Transportsection (play)(cup)(cue)(set cue)
M2=1 Loopsection (loop in)(x)(loopsize +)(loopsize-)
Modifire #6
M6=0 Transportsection (play)(cup)(cue)(set cue)
M6=1 Hotcue mode (hc1)(hc2)(hc3)(hc4)
In the current state M6=1 activates also the function M2=0, so how can I limit the function? Or which condition do I have to put in?
So in this case what your conditionals would look like are
Transport Section
M2=0 M6=0
Loop Section
M2=1 M6=0
Hotcue Mode
M2=0 M6=1
and, keep in mind, you can have something else (like beatjumping) for
M2=1 M6=1
Okey guys! Everthing is working fine and fits to my purpose. I think I totally understood the Modifires
Next Problem: How do I implement the joggs? I want the conventional setting with seek and vinyl mode.
thanks so far
