Can the last used Keyswitch still be active after restarting DAW? (Group start Options)

coramusic

Hi all,

Great to be here and hoping for some help.

I'm making a Kontakt instrument with keyswitches using Group Start Options. I'd like for it to remember what key switch it had selected after I quit and restart the Logic project.

(I've set a default Keyswitch for when the instrument first initialises so that's sorted at least)

I appreciate any advice, I've been reading around for a while trying to crack it.

Thanks

Cora

Thank you so much Milos!

I've made it work in the meantime with the help of more sripting-minded family members.

Here's the script if anyone else needs it:

*I think potentially the "on persistance_changed" section is not strictly necessary> I think it's there to activate the correct UI Label attached to the Kyswitch.

on init

set_snapshot_type(0)

declare $key_switch

make_persistent($key_switch)

end on

on persistence_changed

play_note($key_switch, 1, 0, 1)

end on

on note

if (in_range($EVENT_NOTE, 26, 27)) {THESE ARE THE KEYSWITCH NOTES}

$key_switch := $EVENT_NOTE

end if

end on

Well, I don't really know the settings for that, but the screenshot alternative might help you.

Simply make any 'x' instrument first, put the keyswitches etc... then after you are finished, screenshot the settings, then you can name the screenshot "settings for 'x' instrument".

Let me know if it helps.

Glad the problem is solved!
