Macro Controls link/unlink

[Adam_G]

hey all im experimenting with macro controls and have some knobs linked to a macro script and an on/off button for the script which works well.

the issue im having is that i would like the user to have the option to use the knobs individually if they want when the macro is turned off. currently the knobs stayed locked to the macro controls even when the macro is turned off.

is there a way to release and connect the macro controls via the on off button?

@Adam_G
Do you have an example of the script, how you connected the knobs and the button to the macros?

@VorosMusic sorry i worded that wrong. i actually used Math.random to create a sweep in an effect knob, then setMacroControl to link it. the button just starts/stops a timer. i then manually linked the macros by clicking the pencil then the main knob. what i want to do is basically setMacroControl to 0 but it doesnt seem to work how im expecting.

@Adam_G You'll have to start sharing a minimal snippet so we can help better

@ustk sorry i understand, i was really just wanting to know how to link/unlink macro controls like this one via a button. ```

when i use addToMacroControl it does link the knob to the macro but it doesnt lock it as it does with the one in the snippet. im looking for a way to accomplish that

@Adam_G
Soo...
I took a look at it and saw you also had a short forum talk with Christoph.
I haven't found a way to unlink them (even though, there is probably somewhere a possibility).

For me it mostly begs the question, is there another way of achieving, what you wish for without macros.

If I understood correctly, you just want to switch from a predefined value(automation, sine, .... whatever it may be) to custom control via a button.
Is that correct?
