Master Bypass Button

DanH

@ustk Help please! :face_with_tears_of_joy:

I'm getting the error: Interface:! Line 50, column 35: Unknown function 'setBypassed'

Which is the moduleArray line in the callback, but I suspect some other things might be wrong as well!

Code & Snippet below:

@DanH You're module array just contains strings, it doesn't contain any modules.

d.healey

bypassArray[0] = Content.getComponent("Button1");
bypassArray[1] = Content.getComponent("Button2");
bypassArray[2] = Content.getComponent("Button3");
bypassArray[0] = value;
bypassArray[1] = value;
bypassArray[2] = value;

More crazy code :p

Dan Korneff

as @d-healey says. Use your variables, not strings.

const var moduleArray = [SINE1, SINE2, SINE3];

ustk

@DanH Ok so many things going on here

First, the error you get is because what you stored in moduleArray are strings, not the variables you declared at the top

Then another error, why are you declaring the buttons a second time in bypassArray, and why are you overwriting it again with value?

bypassArray should be at the top too (like all declarations actually) and kept empty until the buttons callback are feeding it

So this is better:

const var SINE1 = Synth.getChildSynth("SINE1");
const var SINE2 = Synth.getChildSynth("SINE2");
const var SINE3 = Synth.getChildSynth("SINE3");

const var moduleArray  = [SINE1, SINE2, SINE3];

Even better so you declare directly the array of modules

const var moduleArray = [Synth.getChildSynth("SINE1"),
                         Synth.getChildSynth("SINE2"),
                         Synth.getChildSynth("SINE3")];

and then the buttons have the same treatment:

const var buttonsArray = [Content.getComponent("Button1"),
                          Content.getComponent("Button2"),
                          Content.getComponent("Button3")];

const var moduleArray = [Synth.getChildSynth("SINE1"),
                         Synth.getChildSynth("SINE2"),
                         Synth.getChildSynth("SINE3")];

const var bypassArray  = [];

Now we are going to feed bypassArray
Before, you would have done this (temporarily, to show the progress):

inline function onButton1Control(component, value)
{
	SINE1.setBypassed(1- value);
	bypassArray[0] = value;
};
Content.getComponent("Button1").setControlCallback(onButton1Control);


inline function onButton2Control(component, value)
{
	SINE2.setBypassed(1- value);
	bypassArray[1] = value;
};
Content.getComponent("Button2").setControlCallback(onButton2Control);


inline function onButton3Control(component, value)
{
	SINE3.setBypassed(1- value);
	bypassArray[2] = value;
};
Content.getComponent("Button3").setControlCallback(onButton3Control);

But instead, you can use only one callback for all the buttons

inline function onBypassButtonsControl(component, value)
{
    var btnIdx = buttonsArray.indexOf(component);
    
    moduleArray[btnIdx].setBypassed(value);
    bypassArray[btnIdx] = value;
};
for (b in buttonsArray) b.setControlCallback(onBypassButtonsControl);

So we put altogether:

const var buttonsArray = [Content.getComponent("Button1"),
                          Content.getComponent("Button2"),
                          Content.getComponent("Button3")];

const var moduleArray = [Synth.getChildSynth("SINE1"),
                         Synth.getChildSynth("SINE2"),
                         Synth.getChildSynth("SINE3")];

const var bypassArray  = [];    // The array that stores the buttons states (bypass)

// INDIVIDUAL BYPASSES
inline function onBypassButtonsControl(component, value)
{
    var btnIdx = buttonsArray.indexOf(component);   // Which button has been clicked
    
    moduleArray[btnIdx].setBypassed(value);         // Set the corresponding module bypass
    bypassArray[btnIdx] = value;                    // Store the individual states
};
for (b in buttonsArray) b.setControlCallback(onBypassButtonsControl);


// MASTER BYPASS
inline function onmasterControl(component, value)
{
    for (i=0; i<buttonsArray.length; i++)
    {
        if (value)                                      // If Master bypass ON
            moduleArray[i].setBypassed(true);           // Set all to bypass
        else
            moduleArray[i].setBypassed(bypassArray[i]); // Or restore their original state from the array
    }
};
Content.getComponent("master").setControlCallback(onmasterControl);

d.healey

@ustk You missed an opportunity, you could use a single callback for all the buttons ;)

ustk

@d-healey That is what I did, except for the master bypass, but I don't want to complicate it more for @DanH
Or I don't get what you mean?

d.healey

@ustk Oh so you did! I read through it too quickly :D

DanH

@d-healey @ustk @dustbro Thanks guys, I told you I find it confusing! this is going to really help me learn :)

ustk

@DanH I just updated the snippet above with some comments ;)

DanH

@ustk :folded_hands: on Daddy duty until tomorrow afternoon so look forward to learning it all then :)

DanH

@ustk Thanks again for doing this, super helpful I have a few questions if that's ok?! Feel free to answer whatever you feel like by the way!

Declarations: So I'm declaring the modules and buttons outside of Arrays because I'll most likely need to refer to them in other parts of the script. As far as I can work out, only declaring them inside of an array prevents me from referring to them in other functions - is that correct? Otherwise this is a very neat solution :)
bypassArray: In the first example of the bypassArray, the line inside the callback 'bypassArray[0/1/2/3etc] = value;' will load the '= value' value into the index of the array, is that right? So if the value was say, 59, and the index number is 0, then the first value in the array is 59?
bypassArray example 2: 'var btnIdx = buttonsArray.indexOf(component); - nice, I haven't seen this before, I assume I can use this in the same way for other Arrays? However the last line 'for (b in buttonsArray) b.setControlCallback(onBypassButtonsControl);' is confusing to me... I've not seen a callback like that before. What does the 'for' do, and likewise. what is the 'b' for?
Lastly, I'd like the buttons to all switch off as well, and then return to their previous state like the modules do. I've tried adding buttonsArray.setValue(1); but can see that's probably not going to work (and doesn't!). Make a second array for the buttons? Have a duplicate set of buttons which are linked?

Like I said, thanks so much for this, even just typing these questions is helping me get a grasp of it all.

An array is just another type of variable, you can refer to your modules from the array variables or from individual variables. You don't need to use both.

'var btnIdx = buttonsArray.indexOf(component); - nice, I haven't seen this before

You should watch more of my videos ;)

Please go read up about Javascript - this is standard notation....

This interwebs is full of explanation for this sort of thing:

W3Schools.com

Well organized and easy to understand Web building tutorials with lots of examples of how to use HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SQL, Python, PHP, Bootstrap, Java, XML and more.

@d-healey ha I do... but there's a lot to take in when learning for the first time. I have to rewatch them from time to time when I've learned more, and they make more sense to me.

DanH

@Lindon good site thanks

As Dave said, you don't need to use both, but you can if it's better for your implementation. You can also just keep the array style and refer to them later in the script with moduleArray[x]

bypassArray: In the first example of the bypassArray, the line inside the callback 'bypassArray[0/1/2/3etc] = value;' will load the '= value' value into the index of the array, is that right? So if the value was say, 59, and the index number is 0, then the first value in the array is 59?

I'm not sure of what you ask. value is the value of the button you pressed. it will be stored in bypassArray at the index btnIdx, so the one corresponding of the button pressed. Play with the buttons and watch the bypassArray content changing in the ScriptWatchTable tile, it'll make sense to you...

bypassArray example 2: 'var btnIdx = buttonsArray.indexOf(component); - nice, I haven't seen this before, I assume I can use this in the same way for other Arrays? However the last line 'for (b in buttonsArray) b.setControlCallback(onBypassButtonsControl);' is confusing to me... I've not seen a callback like that before. What does the 'for' do, and likewise. what is the 'b' for?

Like @Lindon said, go learn more javascript related stuff, try to find exercises online, it helps a lot...
for the moment I can just tell you that this is equivalent to:

buttonsArray[0].setControlCallback(onBypassButtonsControl);
buttonsArray[1].setControlCallback(onBypassButtonsControl);
buttonsArray[1].setControlCallback(onBypassButtonsControl);

Or,

for (i=0; i< buttonsArray.length)
    buttonsArray[i].setControlCallback(onBypassButtonsControl);

but for/in is better isn't it? ;)

Lastly, I'd like the buttons to all switch off as well, and then return to their previous state like the modules do. I've tried adding buttonsArray.setValue(1); but can see that's probably not going to work (and doesn't!). Make a second array for the buttons? Have a duplicate set of buttons which are linked?

So you mean the opposite of Master Bypass? In this case, just do the same thing using moduleArray[i].setBypassed(false); instead of true
With all of this, you can now even make a single callback for the Master Bypass/unbypass buttons, since the only difference is true/false. Just use the indexOf magic trick to determine which button has been clicked, and then if you should use true or false (there's even something shorter but I'll let you find your way with a simple IF statement first ;) )

DanH

@ustk Thanks mate! Making a lot more sense now :)

So my last question: I just want the buttons to do the same as the modules - they all turn off when you press the master button, and then they return to the state they were in before you pressed. So doing exactly the same as the modules.

This is because the buttons are on the ui, and need to show that the modules are off (otherwise the user can't see it). Does that make sense? Becasue buttonsArray is already in the callback I don't think it can be used again...

And I will try to figure out the quicker method, give me a few weeks :face_with_tears_of_joy:

ustk

@DanH so just add them to the Master callback

inline function onmasterControl(component, value)
{
    for (i=0; i<buttonsArray.length; i++)
    {
        if (value)                                      // If Master bypass ON
        {
            moduleArray[i].setBypassed(true);           // Set all to bypass
            buttonsArray[i].setValue(true);
        }
        else
        {
            moduleArray[i].setBypassed(bypassArray[i]); // Or restore their state from the array
            buttonsArray[i].setValue(bypassArray[i]);
        }
    }
};
Content.getComponent("master").setControlCallback(onmasterControl);

But this is weird because then the user can change individual bypasses while the master is still enabled, so the Master doesn't reflect what it should anymore and you just transferred the problem... I would prefer to hide the individual bypasses when the master is on. Another solution is to add a safety in the individual bypass callback so when you click a button, the master automatically switches off

DanH

@ustk Ah, I was trying to add buttonsArray[i].setValue(true); etc to the callback but I didn't have the extra {} - why do you have to put these in, if you don't mind my asking?

Yes could be a bit weird but I think it will work for its purpose (It's an audition tool, to let the user hear what the sound is like without all the fx and modulation on it).
