Thanks a lot, I will definitely implement as you suggest.
How can I combine several lists?
No I think i create a list in a list for the remainingArrowBytes.
This doesnât work with midi.sendSysex.
I tried al sorts of things and got stuck on this.
â125310 error running function ârunFunctionâ: ctrlv2/p000.lua:82: bad argument #-1 to âsendSysexâ (number expected, got string)
downArrow=66
negativeArrowValue = 4
endCommand=07
if (negativeArrowValue < 5) and (negativeArrowValue > 0) then
print (negativeArrowValue, "Sending remaining bytes")
--remainingArrowBytes { for negativeArrowValue in.... add 1 downArrow }
remainingArrowBytes = {}
for i = 1,negativeArrowValue do table.insert(remainingArrowBytes,tonumber(downArrow))
end
print(table.concat(remainingArrowBytes,", "))
print("negativeArrowValue here we are, should send less then 5")
--125310 error running function 'runFunction': ctrlv2/p000.lua:82: bad argument #-1 to 'sendSysex' (number expected, got string)
--sysexMsg = {15, 1, 1, table.concat(remainingArrowBytes,", "), endCommand }
sysexMsg = {15, 1, 1, table.concat(remainingArrowBytes,", "), endCommand }
--midi.sendSysex(PORT_1, sysexMsg)
print(table.concat(sysexMsg,", "))
print(sysexMsg[4])
end
Still have to update the if, elseif, elseâŚ
With your suggestions and some updates I did I got:
With is I git the error
â125310 error running function ârunFunctionâ: ctrlv2/p000.lua:82: bad argument #-1 to âsendSysexâ (number expected, got string)
I think because I pass a list to a list⌠Any hints on how to do this will be great.
