Description
This feature request proposes the ability to dynamically reassign the targets of widgets in Loopy Pro—such as XY Pads, Clip Slicers, and Preset Switchers—using button actions. This functionality would allow a single widget to control different parameters or effects based on the user's needs, enhancing flexibility and reducing the need for multiple widgets.
Proposed Solution
  • Dynamic Target Assignment
    : Implement actions that enable buttons to change the target of a widget. For example, a button could reassign an XY Pad to control different effect parameters or reconfigure a Clip Slicer to target a different clip.
  • State Management
    : Ensure that the state of the widget updates appropriately when its target changes, providing visual feedback to the user.
  • Integration with Existing Systems
    : Seamlessly integrate this functionality with Loopy Pro's existing action and widget systems, maintaining consistency in user experience.
Problem
  • Limited Flexibility
    : Currently, widgets in Loopy Pro have static targets, requiring users to create multiple widgets for different control scenarios, which can clutter the workspace.
  • Inefficient Workflow
    : The inability to reassign widget targets on the fly can hinder live performance setups and complex project configurations, leading to a less streamlined workflow.
Benefits
  • Enhanced Workflow Efficiency
    : Users can streamline their workspace by reducing the number of widgets needed, making project layouts cleaner and more manageable.
  • Improved Live Performance
    : Performers can adapt their control surfaces dynamically during a set, allowing for more expressive and responsive performances.
  • Greater Creative Flexibility
    : The ability to reassign widget targets opens up new possibilities for creative control configurations, enabling users to tailor their setups to specific needs or preferences.
