Thanks guys.
Basically, I'm coming up with a solution to be able to see my library of clips (folder level) where I can quickly select the "folder" that has the right content for that track that the DJ just dropped, very handy when you are a house VJ at a festival and need to react to what's happening on stage.
So I'm assigning buttons on Streamdeck (I fact in the Companion emulator) to decks on Arena, each button displays a thumbnail that visually represents the content of that deck (So my decks are essentially folders).
It's all good when I create my first design and have all the decks of my master composition assigned to buttons on streamdeck. But if I add a new deck to (let's say) the beginning of the dec klist/tabs then those buttons will no longer be selecting the correct deck, which is not the end of the world because I can just add the new deck to the end of the deck list and in streamdeck I can move that buttom to page 1.
BUT if for whatever reason I decide to delete a deck or a few decks in the future then I'd have to reprogram Streamdeck again.
But if the OSC message could select a deck by it's name (instead of it's position), then no matter where the deck is in my composition, that button (on streamdeck) would always select the correct deck
Does this make sense???
Now I'm intrigued by something Arvol said:
Would not assigning a channel value to each deck be the same thing?
Can I manually assign a channel value to each deck?? and then use that value in Streamdeck? If so then this would solve the issue I guess???
If so, how??
Again, Thanks for your help
