Playlist & Track Nr
The Playlist Nr and Track Nr settings are used to select a playlist or track using a number.
This is mostly useful if you want to keep things flexible.
For example, if you have multiple buttons set to Playlist Control and Playlist set to Select by Number with playlist nr's from 1 to 10, you would always have control over the first 10 playlists in Foundry, also if you change playlists.
Offsets
Playlist and Track offsets can be used in combination with Playlist Nr and Track Nr to give an offset to the respective numbers.
For example, if the playlist offset is set to 10, a button with Playlist Nr set to 1 will then have playlist 11 selected, a button with Playlist Nr set to 5 will have playlist 15 selected.
This can be used to browse through playlists or tracks.
For example, say you have 5 buttons with Track Nr set from 1 to 5, and a Track Offset button with Offset Mode Increase/Decrease and Offset of 1.
If you then press the offset button, the offset will increase to 1, so now tracks 2 through 6 are selected.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Offset Mode | Sets how to set the offset: -Set to Value: Sets the offset to the value set in Offset.-Increase/Decrease: Increases the offset by the value set in Offset. |
| Offset | The value to set the offset to (in case of Set to Value), or the value to increment the offset with (in case of Increase/Decrease).The offset can be any value, positive or negative. |
| Display | -Offset: Display the current offset on the Stream Deck. -Icon: Display an icon on the Stream Deck. |
| Colors | -On Color: (Set to Value only) A border is drawn on the Stream Deck of this color if the current offset is equal to the offset configured in Offset.-Off Color: ( Set to Value only) A border is drawn on the Stream Deck of this color if the current offset is not equal to the offset configured in Offset.-Background: Background color of the button. |
