Always working Listen button for Cubase

[jbgeluid]

This a simple solution for people using Lemur controlling Cubase, for the folowing problems:

1:The listen function (available when you use the controlroom in cubase) only works when the mixer is open.
2:Solo and listen defeat are two different buttons in the generic remote.
Both totaly unnecessary and confusing IMHO.

My solution:
1: A "selected channel(s)" LISTEN button that also automaticly "toggles" (opens and closes OR closes and opens...) the mixer when pushed, and
2: A single DEFEAT button using two commands at the same time, one for solo defeat, the other for listen defeat.

Here's how you do it:

In lemur you create two custom buttons, both set to capture/pad on the "behaviour" tab.
name them "Listen", and "solo defeat".

the listen button:
create 4 expressions for this button (x, xoff,x2,x2off)

parameters to assign in Lemur:
x : assign a cc or note of your choice (A, for example: cc100 ch 10) >>scale 0-127
xoff=x : assign a cc or note of your choice (A, for example: cc100 ch 10) >>scale 127-0

x2=x : assign a cc or note of your choice (B, for example: cc101 ch 10) >>scale 0-127
x2off=x : assign a cc or note of your choice (B, for example: cc101 ch 10) >>scale 127-0

parameters to assign in the cubase generic remote:
in the cubase generic remote assign a cc or note of your choice (A, for example: cc100 ch 10) to: command/devices/mixer
in the cubase generic remote assign a cc or note of your choice (B, for example: cc101 ch 10) to: command/mixer/channels:listen On/Off

--------------------------------------------------------

the solo AND listen defeat button:

create 2 expressions for this button (x, x2)

Parameters to assign in Lemur:
x assign a cc or note of your choice (C, for example: cc102 ch 10) >>scale 0-127
x2 assign a cc or note of your choice D, for example: cc103 ch 10) >>scale 0-127



Parameters to assign in the cubase generic remote:
in the cubase generic remote assign a cc or note of your choice (C, for example: cc102 ch 10) to: command/edit/deactivate all solo
in the cubase generic remote assign a cc or note of your choice (D, for example: cc103 ch 10) to:command/controlroom/switch:listen cancel
