Controlling a V4 Zynthian with Notenumbers on Masterchannel

Using Zynthian
1

Hi Jofemodo,

I try to control my naked diy-Zynthian with notenumbers on Ch#16. That works so far, but now I can’t send a select-Massage (last stable image fron 2023).

The Zynthian receives all commands (cursor left/ right/ up/ down/ into several screens, back etc.) but it doesn’t receive Select (Note#57). I tried to send Note#93 for ZynSwitch 3. But nothing happends. Do you see a solution? Thanks for your help and have a good time

Hi @Micki !

Welcome back!!

Perhaps you need to update your config. CUIAs have changed and some of them have different names or assignments.

Please, use the webconf to configure the CUIAs you need in the notes you like.

Cheers!

Hi Fernando,

I used the Webconftool. And I made an update twice. Whatever: I found the numbers for cursor left/right, back, Screen Admin etc.

But the number 57 for SELECT did not work!

I also tried the number 93 for Zynswitch 3.

I tried all numbers from 48 to 96, but i didn’t find select. That’s awesome. Have I to try all of the other numbers to find select?

if you can say me the right number, please do it. Thanx

Cheers

I tried to set number 19 on select. I can do that.

But the function SELECT did not work.

SELECT is the wrong command. Try replacing with: 57: ZYNSWITCH 3,S.

7

“SELECT_ACTION” also works.

8

Really? I can’t get SELECT_ACTION to work!

9

i tried that. It doesnt work. I think ZYNSWITCHES are not Encoderswitches

AFAIK, it works. It’s currently used in latest V5 wiring profile.

11

SELECT_ACTION does not work on my RPi4 basaed V4. ZYNSWITCH 3,S does work on the same device with hardware Customization Profile = V4 Studio.

Hi Micki!

Both:

  • ZYNSWITCH 3,S

and

  • SELECT_ACTION

should work. I’m pretty sure of this.

SELECT_ACTION is quite recent, and only available on vangelis.

It is available to configure on my Vangelis V4 but does not work.

The implementation is this:

    # Select action => it receives type of action: S, B, L
    def cuia_select_action(self, params=None):
        try:
            self.get_current_screen_obj().switch_select(params[0])
        except (AttributeError, TypeError):
            pass

And it’s used in V5. It’s not exactly the same than using “zynswitch 3,s” so for replicating V4 knob-switch it’s better to use zynswitch.

Regards

Ah! It must be “SELECT_ACTION S”. I was missing the “S” argument.

I checked and for short and bold actions both CUIAs should do the same. The difference is on long press only.

Regards,

You mean “SELECT_ACTION S” , right?
