Modifying mixer sends to be prefader?


#1

Hey Axo community!

This is my first post so I do hope I'm posting it in the right place, was torn between here or AxoObject coding! Novice who's been working through educating myself on how to create and process sound on the axoloti core and have so far had great fun and been very impressed with the possibilities. I've developed a few basic patches already and have trawled the forums for tutorials and resources - learning the modules and their purposes, modifying code to add inlets and outlets, and teaching myself general bits and pieces.

I am currently using a jaffa/mix2/mx4b in my project (great little object!) but I want to have the option to have 100% wet signal being outputted to the master. Is it possible to modify the code of the mixer in such a way as to make the sends prefader, so that muting the channel or adjusting the volume doesn't affect the send? Elsewise, maybe someone has a custom object or signal workflow they could share that would be able to achieve such a thing?

Thank you all very much in advance for any response, and hope you're all doing well :slight_smile:

Here is a version with pre fader sends. I did not test it but I am pretty sure it will work:

Oh my gosh! The legend himself, thank you so much!! Gonna test this out today - I'll get back to you. Any chance you'd be able to convert the larger mixer object mx4g as well, I'm gonna study the code modifications vs. the original objects to see if I can understand the process that you undertook - you the man. :smile:

Iam going to change one of the channels for the bigger mixer and give you a smal description on how to do it and then you can try to do it yoursel. It is a really simple copy/paste job :slight_smile:

Yeah, man I was literally just about to write back. The code works great. Already figured out the process and managed to change one of the larger mixers (still with one return channel) - one line of code change per channel. I imagine the two-send mixers it's just a matter of common sense altering the variables. Very efficient - your work is great and I really appreciate you taking the time to help.

So you got it working? :slight_smile:

Great :slight_smile:

It is a really simple fix, so a good place to start :slight_smile:
