Hi,

I have EQ with lock function and it is working as I wanted (on the left side), but how to lock knobs on the right side? There are LO2, MID2 and HI2.

This is just an example - the knobs on the right side will be removed and will be controlled with CC messages from additional MIDI controller (not Lemur).

So how to lock CC messages on the right side?

First of all do keep in mind that even the sliders that DO lock now, if they receive midi messages (by feedback) the incoming messages will bypass the "lock" (I think). have you tested it?

Secondly, what exactly are trying to do with "lock"...the knobs can't be "locked" per se....but there are million other ways to do "tricks" depending on the goal.

One would be to "disrupt" their output. One other would be to use the "z" attribute and "reset" them when needed.
A third one would be to just overlay a blank "canvas" object set to "mono touch" (with show(object,1) ) so that they dont respond to touches.
A fourth would be to create your own lockable knos with canvas.

If it's possible it will be good to have switch off(no MIDI or no MIDI output) function of EQ on the left.

In some cases I want to use Ipad/Lemur for EQ, in some cases just MIDI controller's knobs.

P.S. By the way, switch on will reset values - this is good thing also.

Here's the easiest way I can think of - no reseting although you could do it by scripting if you need to

Thanks Softcore. Just note that MIDI1 working good now, but MIDI2 still not working (Traktor knobs returned). You can see parameter x=k. There are MIDI1 for Ableton and MIDI2 for Traktor.

Ableton port is MIDI1 (MIDI2 not selected on app)
Traktor port is MIDI2 (MIDI1 not selected on app)

I have two questions. I think first or second will solve this issue.

1) How to reset values with special button? - Solved (with On expresion x - <object name>.x = value;)
2) How to turn off/on "Physic" with special button? - Is it possible to do it?
