How to read send and insert states on a track (bypass, mute, active)

2020-04-22 14:08:00.228Z

I feel like I've seen this somewhere in the forums but I can't find it now. Is there a way to get the current status of an insert and send (bypass, mute, active etc.)?

You can get the states like this:


/** 
 * @param {1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10} insertNumber
 */
function getInsertState(insertNumber) {
    var val = sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrack.insertSelectorButtons[insertNumber - 1].value.invalidate().value;
    return {
        isBypassed: val.indexOf('bypassed') >= 0,
        isInactive: val.indexOf('inactive') >= 0,
    };
}

/** 
 * @param {1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10} sendNumber
 */
function getSendState(sendNumber) {
    var val = sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrack.sendSelectorButtons[sendNumber - 1].value.invalidate().value;
    return {
        isMuted: val.indexOf('muted') >= 0,
        isInactive: val.indexOf('inactive') >= 0,
    };
}

log(JSON.stringify(getInsertState(1), null, 4));
log(JSON.stringify(getSendState(1), null, 4));

And if you want to pass in the track it should look for, do like this:
```
/** 
 * @param {AxPtTrackHeader} track
 * @param {1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10} insertNumber
 */
function getInsertState(track, insertNumber) {
    var val = track.insertSelectorButtons[insertNumber - 1].value.invalidate().value;
    return {
        isBypassed: val.indexOf('bypassed') >= 0,
        isInactive: val.indexOf('inactive') >= 0,
    };
}

/** 
 * @param {AxPtTrackHeader} track
 * @param {1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10} sendNumber
 */
function getSendState(track, sendNumber) {
    var val = track.sendSelectorButtons[sendNumber - 1].value.invalidate().value;
    return {
        isMuted: val.indexOf('muted') >= 0,
        isInactive: val.indexOf('inactive') >= 0,
    };
}

log(JSON.stringify(getInsertState(sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrack, 1), null, 4));
log(JSON.stringify(getSendState(sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrack, 1), null, 4));
```

  Hey @chrscheuer
  
  This is really helpful - I think because both insert + sends have two arrays (track, insertNumber) I'm having a bit of trouble returning the true/false info so I can fire off another function.
  
  What I'm trying to accomplish is, on a LEAD VOCAL - find out:
  
  Are there sends on the selected track, and if so are they active?
  
  If yes, select the corresponding aux tracks those sends are returning to
  
  Commit those tracks and the source LEAD VOCAL track
  
  an example result then would be :
  LEAD VOCAL DRY
  LV PITCH SHIFT
  LV REVERB #1
  LV REVERB #2
  LV DELAY #1
  
  Thanks!
