JUMP to next song before current song ends

+JUMP tag only jumps to next section, I would like it to jump to the next song
SInce I have a two bar Click loop on the end of every song, I would like to place +Jump markers before this section so it continues to play songs without those Click sections, but still be able to cue this section if needed.

If i do +JUMP [SONG NAME] it does jump, but pauses the playback even though autoplay is on. On SONG END it jumps and continues playback.

Hey @Ondrej_Pernica, welcome to the forum!

Currently, the +JUMP flag only works on STOP locators, but I get the idea of having some sections you don’t want to necessarily play in your song, but need to be able to jump to just in case.

My proposal for this would be to have a separate locator called something like ALTERNATIVES or SKIPPED which you can put before the end of a song. All sections that come after it and before the SONG END locator will be seen as being part of the song, but when the playhead hits the SKIPPED locator, AbleSet will jump to the next song in the setlist.

Alternatively, I could imagine extending the automated jumps feature to allow jumping to the next song at the end of a section, e.g.

Would one of these work for you? Which one would you prefer? :slight_smile:

so I’m trying to do a similar thing here. I want a click-only loop for each song at its tempo available at the end of each song, before the next one. Then I can launch those click loops if needed on the fly. BUT, I want to have the end of the song with tracks behave like normal, and have a SONG END cue at the end, so it auto-fires the next song in my setlist. (or if I want it to stop and cue up the next song I would make it +JUMP) - BUT I also want to have a +JUMP at the end of the click loop, so when I release the click loop, it jumps to the next song in the setlist, but also stops, so its cued up for me. Currently, I’m not able to make it do this. The +JUMP after the loop is released will always launch back to song 1 no matter what, because I have the SONG END cue before it. I tried the SKIPPED method, but that creates a new locator separate from the song, and also +JUMP at the end of the loop just stops, it doesn’t jump to the next song. I have to believe there is a way to accomplish this! I want to set it up as my template. Thanks for any help!

I also tried setting up each click loop as a separate song marker, and that seemed to work, except the SONG END cue will just launch that click loop, when I need it to SKIP that loop and launch the next actual song. so it looked like this:

so yeah is there any way to make the SONG END cue skip a song in the setlist? like SONG END+SKIP ?? can’t find anything like that.

EDIT: FWIW, I did try making the end of song cue SONG END [SONG 3] to skip to song 3, but it doesn’t work. still just fires the click loop (which is the next song in the setlist). Tried making that cue +JUMP [SONG 3] as well, and that doesn’t work either. I have to be missing something here!
