Hi Folks I’m new here, I play in a band called Coastal Drift in Perth, Western Australia. I’ve been looking for an alternative to the wifi apps for controling our in-ear mixes from an Allen&Heath Qu-SB desk. Since we have added everyone on in-ears as well as having wireless for three instruments and two vocals (using antenna combiners etc.) we are definately seeing a marked deciline in the wifi performance for the connection to everyones phones (to control their mixes). I saw the VSN1L and thought it may be a solution to replace the phone app problem. My thinking is as follows:
- We will have a single VSN1L on a stand in the center of the stage
- The four small buttons beneath the screen will be used to select the monitor mix for each user.
- The eight large buttons will be used to select the required channel to control, vocal. bass, guitar, etc.
- The encoder will adjust the volume for that channel.
I believe this is possible with the controller but I am new to the software so need some guidance please. I am not looking for someone to spoon-feed me the solution as I need to learn the softaware. As such I have two questions: - Is there a current ‘Getting Started’ vidio tutorial or manual?
- From what I can see of the Lua code, I need to create, what would be called a ‘global’ variable in some other languages, to save values, so that pushing one of the small buttons would populate that variable, to select the mix, then when a large button was pressed, to select the channel, and finally when the encoder was rotated, it would use those two variables to send the required midi message.
What I don’t know is how to create a global variable that can be used in multiple controls.
Sorry for the log winded post but I am exited about the posibilities for this!
