Main Features:

SELECT SCENE [numberbox]

-Scene range is always equal to the number of scenes currently in the Live Set indexed from 1 to total number of Scenes

-In Live we can rearrange the order of Scenes, so in order to assist the user, SSAtool creates a comment box which displays the selected Scene’s name (if any), colour (if any) and tempo change (if any). If there’s no name provided, SSAtool displays "empty".

SELECT MODE [dropdown]

-Toggle between Remote Off/Remote On

-We can remotely turn off or turn on a device

SELECT TARGET [dropdown]

-If there are no other effects on the Track/Group, SSAtool populates the dropdown menu with “NONE” and “init” – this indicates that there are no other devices than SSAtool on given track

-If there is only 1 other device than SSAttol on the Track/Group, the dropdown menu is populated with “NONE” and the other device name

-If there are multiple other devices on the Track/Group, SSAtool populates the dropdown menu with the names of the devices in sequence as they are placed on the chain. -Replacing the order of the devices on chain re-populates the menu accordingly

SSAtool never populates the dropdown menu with an option resembling itself so the device can’t map to self by accident.
