Hey, has anyone figured out how to add a delay or quantized delay to the go button? I want my general jump setting to stay at end of section so that when I use the setlist drop down and click a section, it will jump to it after the current section has ended. but In a case where I’d like to go to another section halfway through one, but in a quantized bar instead of waiting for the end of that section, is that possible? like, adding a delay. the current jumpToQueuedSection OSC is for an instant jump, but is it possible to add a setting where it will jump to that after a quantized bar or measure, that can be defined within it? like if I want this button to jump to the queued section in 2 bars/measures, or in 1, or in 3?? idk, just mainly asking for flexibility in how these are triggered without affecting the general settings.
Please fill out these values to make it easier to troubleshoot:
- OS and Version: macOS Sonoma 14.8.9 (23J631)
- Version of AbleSet: 3.1.5
- Version of Ableton Live: Ableton 11.3.43
Hey @TheBrayns, welcome to the forum!
Yes, you should be able to achieve this: /setlist/jumpToQueued actually respects Live’s global quantization (only /setlist/jumpToQueued true and the GO button jump instantly), so you can temporarily change the quantization, jump, and then restore it:
/global/quantization 2; //sleep 100; /setlist/jumpToQueued; //awaitJump; /global/quantization 1
This sets the quantization to 2 bars, waits 100 ms for Live to apply it, jumps to the queued section, waits for the jump to happen, and sets the quantization back to 1 bar (replace it with your usual value).
You can create one button per value (1, 2, 4, 8) as a Custom OSC MIDI mapping or an OSC button on a Canvas. Keep in mind that the jump happens at the next 2 bar line of Live’s grid, not exactly 2 bars after pressing, and that 3 bars isn’t an available value.
You can also see the quantized and instant jump options in the official tutorial.
Would that work for your use case?
the /setlist/jumpToQueued seemed to be jumping instantly but that’s because It would automatically add the true statement afterwards, I had tried taking it off and testing but I would get the same result so I had given up and came to the forums. Now it’s working suddenly. Thanks! also
thanks for the value you shared up top, will experiment with it!
