JesuSonic and hotkeys

[VomitHatSteve]

Can the JesuSonic effects language read input from the keyboard? I'd like to make a plugin that can mute and unmute a bunch of channels while a song is playing. (Long story short, I want to control playback with a Dance Dance Revolution pad).

Anyone have any pointers how to do that? Thanks.

I believe you can setup triggers to perform specific actions and bind them to the number pad. I honestly haven't dove into JS enough to say for sure though..

Here's the programming reference for JS: http://www.cockos.com/reaper/sdk/js/js.php


I did a quick search for the word "keyboard" and the only thing I found was under the heading "Special Variables." Hopefully that will point you in the right direction.

Good luck!

Oh. There's totally a "trigger" mechanism in JS. That looks like exactly what I want.

thanks.
