Very interesting, I’m loving this series of videos as I’m new to clyphx and the possibilities seem huge! Can you select playback on a random track and also a random clip within that track? For example, I have a whole list of pre-programmed midi Arpeggiator patterns that I copy over several tracks each with a different soft synth, so it’s the same list of patterns playing through different synths. I dont want any two playing at the same time, so with one button press, I want clyphx to randomly select a track and also a clip within that track, then the next time I press the same button, again it randomly chooses a different track and a different clip within that track. Hope this makes sense!
Hey @dannybrazen! I'm glad you enjoy the videos. To play a random clip (e.g. on Track 1) use: [] 1 / PLAY RND If you want to be more precise on what track or want to play ONLY ONE random clip you would need a user action, which require some python programming or being part of my higher tier patreon ;) Or you could take this user action here and adapt it for your needs: nativekontrol.proboards.com/thread/4486/random-clip-paying-repeating-clips
@@clyphxpro hey man, thanks for the reply. I’m no coder, so I’m still easing in at the beginner stages. If I can’t get clyphx to pick a random track to play, can I get it to play a random clip from a pre-selected group of clips on a track? I could probably use this instead. I’m sure I saw something like this in the manual… for example; the code would state: [] 1 / PLAY RND 1-8 Where the command would pick a random clip from clips 1-8 on track 1? Then after this I could have say: ; 2 / PLAY RND 6-14 Where the command would also pick a random clip from clips 6-14 on track 2? The way my live workflow is setup is a bunch of pre-recorded hat patterns/ kick & snare patterns/ bass lines/ arpeggiator patterns etc so I want a one-touch system where I can press one button and the software picks randomly from a pre-specified list of clips, I.e., I could press “intro” as a scene and the software picks a random combination of pre-recorded intro hat/kick & snare/ bass/ arp clips, then I could press “verse” as a scene and it would pick a random combination of a different set of pre-recorded clips. As long as all the clips are in the same key, it’ll all fit together, but different clips get triggered randomly every time a scene is launched
thank you for this!! my question: i have a clip that is named [verse] ARM ON -- this obviously arms to record when i play the clip, and the clip's name is verse. but if i try to trigger that clip from a different x-clip, and i don't want to say CLIP(2), but would like to reference the name, CLIP("verse") doesn't work, i need to do CLIP([verse] ARM ON) --- have you noticed this, and do you have a workaround? the problem is that if i then add more to the action list on the verse clip, i have also change the name of that clip on the triggering x-clip. thanks in advance for any insight
what if the clip is named something like [verse] "bass" / PLAY -- when i put this in quotes, the quotes that are already there mean it doesn't work. do you know what i'm supposed to do to nest it properly? i tried changing the ones inside to single quotes but that didn't work. thanks!!
@@clyphxpro do you mind if i ask another question? i'm trying to use CLIP ENVCLR to delete pitchbend envelope i've created on a clip. i can get it to delete things like pan and volume, per the manual, but i can't get it to delete any midi ctrl envelopes like pitch bend or mod wheel. any thoughts? thanks so much for your time!!
@@charlieotto Hi there! As far as I know and tested it is indeed not possible to access the Midi Control aspects of a clip. I'll put that on the feature request list.

@@dannybrazen yes, 2 / RND4-16 will play a random clip in the range 4-16 (leave NO space after RND) it is described in the manual on page 9
@@clyphxpro cool, that should be good enough for what I need. Many thanks!

unfortunately there is no real workaround. it is either the exact name or position.

Gleich nach 1:50 einen acha Effekt gehabt :)
On scene your ClyphX clips should start at slot 30. Now scene 10 will play and start also the clyphX clip at track1 slot 10
