Syntax for expressions

Cantabile
1

I would be very much helped with an overview of:

  • functions that can be used in expression or fields
  • syntax for Cantabile expressions

A lot of information can be found in individual posts, where interesting functions pop-up, but I am not aware of a list with all the functions and syntax that should be used.

Have you checked the respective Guides sections?

I did, but apparently not well enough, to long ago, …

thanks!

strcat(a,b) was the one I was looking for

Is there a possibility to assign a value to a custom variable, MyVariable.

I would like to change the behaviour of my (new) expression pedal. It seems to be more sensitive than the previous that was broken (both Line6 FBV Express MKII). I’d like to change the value for expression only if the change from the previous value is more than e.g. +/- 2. If now it has the value 100 it wobbles between 99-101 just due to vibrations. So, I would like to store the actual value of 100 to ExpActual and compare the input from the pedal with this value and go to the new value when input < ExpActual-n OR input> ExpActual+2.

Something like that would be possible?

@brad,

Is there an update on the development of the scripting language we talked about a while ago?

I have the same issue with my expression pedal, and tried various approaches to filter the "stutter"out of the feed, but couldn’t find a usable solution. Still something I look into if there’s nothing better to do, but not a top priority.

Not really top, just annoying if you start looking to it. I asked on the Line6 forum as well, but no responses yet. Tightened the bolt the pedal, which did help a bit but not eliminated the behaviour. With a little bit of programming it should be easy to make something.

Currently there is only access to the previous value, and I can’t see a solution without having access to at least two values back - to capture if it is stuck between two alternating values being send.

There haven’t been any developments in this area, been focused on other internal workings and getting 4300 stable.

Was it the ability to access the previous two values that is most important here?

Yes, for me that would the request
