Hello again,
I am a few steps further with my light show...
However I have a problem or question:
In VC I have a Cue List with a Chaser of all my Moving Heads positions. Additionally I've got a Time-Widget for altering the Fade-In Times of the steps of this particulary chaser.
Now - when I change the time for the Fade-In the Cue List Item jumps to the beginning.
I'm controlling QLC+ via Midi - so when I have 16 Items in the Cue List and change the time and the next thing I want to have is the last item in the list - then I have to fire 16 Midi events in series to get to the item number 16. When I use 64th notes to do this it sums up to a whole quarter note.
So: Is there a way (yet) to select a Cue List Item directly via Midi?
Thanks in advance and greetings from germany,
Ingo

In Cue list properties, tab side faders, you can set mode to steps. Then the fader will directly select the active step (you will loose manual crossfade).
You can assign MIDI control to the fader, and depending on the value, the step will be selected.
The value computation: 0-127 is expanded to 0-255, and then divided by number of steps. So your best bet is to aim somewhere in the middle of the interval.
E.g. when you have 16 steps, 127/16 is almost 8, so your target CC value or Note velocity is step# (counted from 1) * 8 - 4.
