logic

This is something where I wanted to remix a song as well as the video, for fun. I used Logic for the remix, and QC for the video.

I stripped the vocal from the original track, did a little tweaking on it, and added in different instrumentation. Then I took the video and did an assortment of glitches, v002, and datamoshing.

I have been wrestling with this problem for what feels like days and it seems like it must be simpler than it appears.

I am working on a patch that just takes photos from a folder and transitions between every photo in the folder automatically, just like a slideshow patch. I've got that part down with some interpolation and things, but it's a little too automated.

One issue is that I can't have it pause on one photo, it just keeps rolling through the composition. Ideally the process should go like this:

Receive an "advance" bang/click/message Photo transitions to next one with specified timing Photo sits there until next "advance" message

I can stop it from transitioning with the stop watch object and an external timebase on the interpolation, but I end up hitting it right in the middle of a transition and can't reliably stop it when a full photo is up. I've tried various javascript statements to catch it at the right spot, but interpolation seems to zip past the range I'm trying to catch it in so none of my logic appears to work correctly.

The attached patch demonstrates how everything is right now: 1. Receives a bang 2. Starts the first stop watch 3. Transition interpolation runs from 0.-1. 4. Precisely when the transition reaches 1, start the interpolation meant for pausing on the full photo and stop the other stop watch 5. Pause for 3 seconds 6. Repeat

Any ideas? I think somewhere in step 4 is where I'm getting screwed up..anyone else have a slideshow patch around?

Can anybody assist me with a dilemma Im having, I need to hold a value and only send it if a true value is present. Currently the only way I know how to do this is embed the value within a macro patch consumer but that kills the output.
