Hi, exploring the world of shortcuts, I cannot locate shortcut functions to control sliders. Is it a scripting thing rather than shortcuts?
Am hoping to use a midi controller.
Any assist would be greatly appreciated.

I beg to differ Quote:
functions to control sliders
Have a look at the shortcut templates, there are multiple controlers using a slider

Plenty of examples in the scripting thread that are not vmix shortcuts related like windows functions etc (heck vMix script can let you format a drive ;-) ) Quote:Originally Posted by: doggy Have a look at the shortcut templates, there are multiple controlers using a slider That wasn't what they asked.

Yes, I'm aware that scripting can control things outside of vMix, such as within Windows itself. There's a reason I specified that I was talking about control within vMix, which is limited to the controls available through shortcuts. It was a direct response to the OP's question of Originally Posted by: vjmandala Is it a scripting thing rather than shortcuts? when there's no difference between the 2 in this case (or any other when discussing functionality within vMix).

Before I dive into it, my original question was - can a midi-controller be used to map the colour control sliders. Will add this to feature requests (thanks for tip). Hello yes a midi controller fader can change the colour correction sliders but un-fortunatelly also i dont see something for chroma key. A feature request good to be exist but this will maybe be implemented at best scenario from next year 2025 this season about and vmix 29 and up. Until then it can be done but not directly by using the midi controller in vmix. But if you use bitfocus companion with vmix module and midi module is possible to be done by using triggers. Yes it is need to be done manually point to point,but possible. For more auto way i believe central control may offer it Im attaching a picture from my bitfocus companion using for audio my akai apc mini i use for my headphones The maximum value that can take a fader in the akai is 127. So we make a trigger "variable to watch" the midi device via the midi module and for example we set for the fader that is called 1_56_ when it have value 127 to go the volume to 100 by using the vmix api shortcuts Then another trigger for example when we set a little down the fader it will be value 117 and we change the volume to be 90 and so on until value midi fader to be 0 For colour correction if you see here https://vmixapi.com/?function=SetCCHue for example it takes values from -1 to 1. So at 127 in the trigger we can set it to -1 at 117 to 0.9 and so on This i believe can work for every value that work same way for colour correction in vmix. For the companion midi module you can see more https://www.youtube.com/@Remotely-Possible and more about the idea per trigger this video Central control https://centralcontrol.io/ i believe that may have a a more automated way for this kind of workflow. Screenshot_14-11-2024_13448_127.0.0.1.png (55kb) downloaded 0 time(s). For some reason the 1st screenshot trigger dont want to upload but i think you get the how to "idea"..
