This may have been requested, but I did not find it, (maybe there is a trick to do this)
Now that we have PFL, :-) audio mixing is more powerful.
We need a "Clear all Solo" function. On the GUI it would be nice to just click on the orange solo light.
But we need an API Shortcut to do this.
Thanks!

I'm not sure I understand the question. But API already offers this function, including the normal shortcuts. You can assign the same key several times in the shortcuts and delete all solos with the command BusXSoloOff , Value A, BusXSoloOff , Value B etc. or via script: Code:Dim busValues As String() = {"A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "G"}
For Each value As String In busValues
API.Function("BusXSoloOff", Value:=value)
Next

Thanks Peter, but I want One command for all.
We have the busses and 100+ inputs and finding the one input that is soloed can be a challenge. Audio consoles today have a clear all. Yes I could create a script, and it will list all inputs, but this is a messy solution.

Hey Peter,
Your code is much more efficient that what I was going to do. Each one separate...
How would you format this for adding inputs 1-150 to go solo off?
Thanks!
Steve

The solo is exclusive, isn't it. So whatever solo you press it automatically disables the others. The script could be optimized by just soloing one input on and off. Then all solos are cleared.

sorry, I forgot the inputs. mavik's method is good, but you may want to avoid having something other than what you want on the solo output. you can simply determine the number of all inputs in the script and then switch soloOFF on all input numbers in a loop. it doesn't matter whether it's an audio or other input. The first part of the code is the one already shown above, followed by the new code to switch off the input solos There are 2 methods, both work. the more elegant one that first counts how many inputs you have Code:'switch off all solos on busses
Dim busValues As String() = {"A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "G"}
For Each value As String In busValues
API.Function("BusXSoloOff", Value:=value)
Next
'switch off all solos on inputs
Dim xmlDoc As New XmlDocument()
Dim i as integer
xmlDoc.LoadXml(API.Xml)
Dim inputNodes As XmlNodeList = xmlDoc.SelectNodes("/vmix/inputs/input")
Dim inputCount As Integer = inputNodes.Count
for i = 1 to inputcount
API.Function("SoloOff", i)
Next
the brute force one, assuming you have no more than 500 inputs... Code:'switch off all solos on busses
Dim busValues As String() = {"A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "G"}
For Each value As String In busValues
API.Function("BusXSoloOff", Value:=value)
Next
'switch off all solos on inputs
Dim i as integer
for i = 1 to 500
API.Function("SoloOff", i)

Then all solos are cleared. No. If doing via API, or right-clicking on the S button, you can Solo multiple channels.

This is great, I appreciate you sharing your scripting expertise! Thank you, The "brute force" is what I was looking for, but I am learning from the more elegant version. :-) Steve
