Topic: Queries For level on individual freqs/bands...

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

I'm writing a script for LEDs on my DDJ-XP1 to display a Graphic EQ, and need to be able to ask VDJ for the levels on a particular frequency or band of frequencies on the master output. Does this exist? If not how hard would it be for devs to implement in an upcoming release? To keep it simple 8 bands would suffice 0-80hz, 81-200hz, 201-800hz, 801-2khz, 2k-5khz, 5k-10khz, 10khz-15khz, and 15k-20khz, or tied into the built-in 3band eq and using those 3 bands set by the user prefs.

There is also a 10 band EQ plugin, that you might prefer to map
Will be quite easy

Thanks Rune, I'm familiar with the eq settings; I'm looking for a VDJ Script query to return the levels of a particular band in real time. I'm trying to build a multi-band VU meter(or graphic eq display) script for a controller.

Below is what I've done so far, but it's just the L/R VU meter repeated with slight variations to make it appear like a GEQ. I had to filter the audio because YouTube are DR nazis.

Currently only available as a whole for skins with "equalizer" skin element, but would indeed not be too hard to make individual spectral bands available through vdj script as well.

I think it would be a nice addition.

It used to be possible in old versions of VDJ.

Certainly skinners such as DJ Format used a method to create multi-band analyser displays in their skins.

When I modified Mixlab for VDJ 8 I couldn't use that part of the code any more.

There is a skin element that allows you to build spectrum analyzer.
But you can't use that element to output values on controller leds/bars.

For skins, it's absolutely possible to add spectrum analyzer. And I think some skins (including one of my own) use it already ;)

What about add new verbs?
get_vu_meter_1
get_vu_meter_2
get_vu_meter_3
get_vu_meter_4
get_vu_meter_5
get_vu_meter_6
get_vu_meter_7
get_vu_meter_8

And if you need less, "get_spectrum_band 1 8", "get_spectrum_band 2 8", etc... should now also work

Nice, thank you! But in VERBS there is no mention about it.

I know, there is wrong thread, but we need also action for set POI CUE ACTION via pads. Something like that
cue_action 'Fog' 'green' 'marker_only' 'os2l_button "Scene 1"'
cue_action 'Strobo' 'green' 'marker_only' 'os2l_button "Scene 2"'
etc
Without this is very anonnying set each track, editing in POI editor.
