It is sometimes desirable to work only with a set of strips out of the whole
|
|
list of available strips. This could be in any case where there is more than
|
|
one engineer and one of them is responsible for only a group of strips such
|
|
as all percussion, all sound effects, choir only, orchestra only, etc.

After a strip is added to the custom strip list, it will retain the same
|
|
SSID for the life of the session so long as banking is not used. If a strip
|
|
is removed it will leave a gap in the SSID list. Custom strip lists do
|
|
not survive a session reload and need to be recreated at session start.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="note">
|
|
A custom strip list will only affect the surface that sets it. Any
|
|
other surface will continue to operate on all strips or may have it's
|
|
own set of custom strips.

The commands below control the use of a custom strip set.

<h2>Setting up a custom strip set</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The control surface may set up a custom strip list all at once or one
|
|
strip at a time. A control surface that uses banking would probably
|
|
be best served by setting up one strip at a time, while one that does
|
|
no banking (bank_size = 0) and uses <code>/strip/list</code> would
|
|
probably be best served by having them all selected at once.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>One at a time example:</p>
|
|
<code>/strip/listen 2</code>
|
|
<p>adds strip 2 to custom strip list</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>Many at a time example:</p>
|
|
<code>/strip/listen 2 4 6 8</code>
|
|
<p>Adds strips 2, 4, 6 and 8 to the custom strip list</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p class="note">
|
|
<code>/strip/listen</code> will only work with custom enable turned off.
|
|
Using <code>/strip/listen</code> while in custom mode will have no effect.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2>Using the custom strip set</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Once the custom strip set has been set up as shown above, it must be enabled.
|
|
This is done from the control surface with the <code>/strip/custom/mode <em>mode</em></code>
|
|
OSC command. <em>Mode</em> may be <em>0</em>: Off, <em>1</em>: Use custom
|
|
strip set in selected order or <em>2</em>: Use custom strip set
|
|
in mixer order. <code>/strip/list</code> will now show the custom strip list
|
|
and and its SSIDs. No more strips may be added to the custom strip list while
|
|
in custom mode. To add more strips to the end of the list, first send the
|
|
<code>/strip/custom/mode 0</code> then more strips can be added to the end
|
|
of the list. After adding the next strips send the
|
|
<code>/strip/custom/mode <em>mode</em></code>
|
|
to re-enable custom mode. It is possible to switch back and forth between
|
|
normal and custom mode as desired.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h3>Custom Strip ordering</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The ordering of strips in the custom strip set is affected by both the
|
|
custom <code>mode</code> and the <code>bank_size</code> setting for the
|
|
surface.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="note">
|
|
A <code>bank_size</code> of <em>0</em> is also described as having
|
|
banking turned off. In such a case all strips are shown.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<h4>Mode 0</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Custom mode <em>Off</em>. All strips will be used as set by
|
|
<code>strip_types</code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<h4>Mode 1</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If <code>mode</code> is set to <em>1</em> the custom strip ordering
|
|
is always "first come, first served". That is,
|
|
<code>/strip/listen 2 4</code> followed by <code>/strip/listen 1 3</code>
|
|
will result in strip 2 showing as SSID 1 , strip 4 as SSID 2, strip 1
|
|
as SSID 3 and strip 3 as SSID 4 when in custom mode <em>1</em>. Once these SSID are set
|
|
in this way, they will remain linked to this SSID with banking turned off and
|
|
will at least remain in the same order with banking on.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<h4>Mode 2</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If <code>mode</code> is set to <em>2</em> the custom strip ordering
|
|
will be set to mixer order and any deleted strips will not leave
|
|
a blank strip in the set.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<h4>With banking on</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If <code>bank_size</code> is set to greater than <em>0</em>, Then
|
|
banking is turned on. In this case <code>strip_types</code> will
|
|
be honored and only strips from the custom strip set that match
|
|
<code>strip_types</code> will be shown in a bank. However, the
|
|
order that the strips appear will still be affected by the
|
|
<code>mode</code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h2>Removing a strip from the custom strip list</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>/strip/ignore ssid</code> will remove that strip from the
|
|
custom strip list if custom strip use is enabled. In <code>mode</code>
|
|
<em>1</em> there will be a blank strip at that SSID and all other
|
|
SSIDs will remain the same for no banking. With banking
|
|
in use, <code>strip_types</code> are honored and so removed strips
|
|
which have no type, will not be shown.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>/strip/custom/clear</code> will remove
|
|
all strips and SSIDs allowing custom strip lists to be restarted from
|
|
SSID 1. Custom <code>mode</code> will be set to <em>0</em>.
|
|
</p>
