Controlling UAD Apollo Console App

By Koenraad Foesters @Koenraad_Foesters

    Hi

    Is there a way to control the universal audio apollo console app through soundflow?
    If I program a 'Click UI element' there is no possibility in selecting a element in the console app (it select the whole console app instead of a seperate element).

    Thanks,
    Koenraad

    1. Hi Koenraad

      Unfortunately, I don't have UAD myself so I cannot check, but from your description, it sounds like the UAD Console app isn't accessible for SoundFlow to control the UI elements.

          Is it possible to trigger a midi message via soundflow?
          Say for example I press 'f19' on the keyboard (top right corner) and it triggers #CC127 on channel 16?

          Because there is an app that can midi control the UA apollo console app:
          https://www.raduvarga.com/software/ua-midi-control

          This way I could trigger the talkback on/off on my keyboard instead of going into the software and other powerfull stuff like speaker switching etc...

              Any help on how to trigger a midi command?

              The idea would be:
              I press 'F19' on my keyboard and that triggers a midi command (coul be any random one).

              How could I best set this up?

                  one thing i'd love to be able to do is automate clicking "ok" on the +48v warning when loading a console preset file. any ideas?

                  1. I've done some automating by now.
                    The key is that you have the console always in the same window size (mine is in the max).

                    For example for automating talkback I've programmed:

                    1. open console app from dock.
                    2. wait for console app to open
                    3. then program a mouse click based on where the talkback button is (you can find where to click by CMD+SHFT+4 and then figure out where it needs to click)
                    4. close console app.

                    Maybe this give some inspiration.

                    I'm still waiting for Radu Varga UAD console midi control to incorporate the talkback control, that should give a more stable version with just one midi command.
