Hey!
Coming here today to ask whenever beat/hit triggers are possible, either "natively" or via expressions etc.
And if via expressions, some tutorial/example would be nice
Thanks in advance!
Beat triggers!
Re: Beat triggers!
I don't really understand your question but perhaps this might help.

Re: Beat triggers!
Hi Korro, I would build the trigger with Ramp and the Threshold function, it works in my attached test project.
What surprises me a bit is that it only works under 0.94. Would have assumed that Ramp always reaches 1 and therefore should also work with a threshold setting of 0.99?

Re: Beat triggers!
There are Trigger modifiers for exactly this purpose.

Re: Beat triggers!
He thanks for the input! But I don't understand how to use that if I need it for on/off (0/1) because it increases by 1 to the infinity or generates a random number in between 0 and 1? Any tips how you would use the trigger to generate a 1 every time the threshold is reached?Magic wrote:There are Trigger modifiers for exactly this purpose.
I have also noticed the same behavior in combination with Ramp, that it does not work if I set the Threshold to 0.99 while I expect that the Ramp always rises to 1?

It's similar to this tutorial: https://magicmusicvisuals.com/forums/vi ... ?f=3&t=986
The only difference is that your source would be audio, not MIDI. But you would still use Trigger (.5) and Wrap (2).

Re: Beat triggers!
Sorry for the delay, only today i had time to test your suggestion. But for me it does not work because it only triggers every second beat? As the source i use a BPM synced Ramp.Magic wrote:The only difference is that your source would be audio, not MIDI. But you would still use Trigger (.5) and Wrap (2).
Nevertheless, i have now noticed that i could achieve beat exact switching of the scenes with the trigger and warp (as an example Trigger = 0.98 / Warp 4).
