This article covers topics related to controlling the mixer with Loopy Pro actions.

Mutually-Exclusive Inputs

if you have instruments or hardware inputs that you want to be mutually exclusive, use a Radio Button grid or Stepped Dial. For each step or radio button, add a Mute/Unmute action with Invert Value turned on as the Select/Deselect action. We use the Invert Value setting so that the selected input is unmuted rather than muted.

The video below shows the steps to set up a mutually-exclusive input selector.

Controlling Sends

Send knobs are controlled by Adjust Parameter actions for the mixer channel in which they appear:

  • Color Channels: Color Group Actions -> Adjust Parameter
  • Hardware inputs and Audio Unit Instruments: Audio Source Actions -> Adjust Parameter
  • Buses: Bus Actions -> Adjust Parameter

To add an action to control a send:

  • Add an action of the appropriate type. For example to control an audio input's send know, choose Audio Source Actions -> Adjust Parameter.
  • In the Adjust Parameter setup panel, tap on Target and select the mixer channel whose send you want to target.
  • After choosing the target, tap on Parameter. A list will appear of that mixer channel's parameters. If the channel has a send, it will be listed.
  • Choose the send that you want to adjust.
