Scripted bindings

Cantabile

Hi,

Would be really great if we could use a scripting language like Python or Lua to create custom bindings. Unlimited power!

Thanks

Cue evil-sounding world domination laughter…Mwaa-haaa-haaaaaaa.

That would be very cool though! Did you have any specific ideas about what you could do with that?

Now I’m a new user so I might be missing some options that are already possible, but for example, I’d like to bind an expression pedal to switch a VST on at different levels, combined with blending arpegiator presets, stuff like that. Mostly I do find ways to do things, except a do X when exp pedal goes below something. But there’s things, like BlueArp’s arp enabled option that takes scalar value, and I wanna toggle it. Scripting these things would be really great, open up a lot of options to create some different things :slight_smile:

@Hristo_Velev this soft might help a lot:

And there is a VST version which could be used in cantabile sessions

kind regards, Alexandr

Thanks @Alexander, I’ll check this out - second time it’s getting suggested, and looks pretty interesting!

I have actually considered lua for this before and agree it’d be handy but there’s never been much visible demand for it. I’m certainly open to the idea.

If it’s implemented in a way that allows people to script a binding and then publish it for others to easily reuse, the general coding averse public would benefit a lot from the work of a few coders :slight_smile:

@Brad Cantabile already is the best solution in the visible universe! :smile:
But if this functionality will not cause any performance decrease issues, I am in! :blush:
