Waves Tune Live Key-Change Script

Thanks Dustin! I created the presets in the waves plugin but i'm having a hard time finding an action that will open up the preset selecting pulldown menu... the only one I found was "select insert preset" but it says “please use the output of another action to connect this property” and I can’t find a solution to that.

Does this require a script instead of a simple macro? Thanks for your help!

Don't know why you don't see every track on the list but, this won't work on the mix window.

Most default soundFlow scripts are meant to work on the edit window, there is a lot more information and easier for soundFlow.

A common way to do what you are looking for is to focus the edit window, open the plugin, and finally open the mix window. It's really fast. Doing it on a script is easier as well.

try this,

function setPluginPreset({ pluginName: pluginName, presetName: presetName, slotNumber: slotNumber, trackName: trackName }) {

    const isMixWindowFocused = sf.ui.proTools.getMenuItem('Window', 'Mix').isMenuChecked

    if (isMixWindowFocused) {
        sf.ui.proTools.menuClick({ menuPath: ["Window", "Edit"], targetValue: "Enable", });
    }


    try {
        const track = sf.ui.proTools.trackGetByName({ name: trackName, makeVisible: true }).track
        const pluginWindow = sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is(`Plug-in: ${pluginName}`).first

        track.trackScrollToView()

        track.trackInsertToggleShow({ targetValue: "Enable" });

        pluginWindow.elementWaitFor();

        pluginWindow.popupButtons.allItems[3].popupMenuSelect({
            menuPath: presetName,
        });

    } catch (err) { throw err }

    finally {
        if (isMixWindowFocused) {
            sf.ui.proTools.menuClick({ menuPath: ["Window", "Mix"], targetValue: "Enable", });
        }
    }


}

sf.ui.proTools.appActivate()
sf.ui.proTools.invalidate()


//  Set info here, must type exactly as in pro tools
setPluginPreset({
    pluginName: "FabFilter Pro-Q 3",
    presetName: ["Preset 1"],
    slotNumber: 1,
    trackName: "Track 1"
})
