TOX not working as expected in some projects

[ray12]

Hi Everyone!
I modifed a midi mapper TOX base from Patreon that was intended for Novation Launch Control XL 2 and modified it for my Launch Control XL 3.
I dragged it to my pallet and from there I drag it into other projects.

However the strange thing is if if I put it into projects, sometimes it is working as expected and sometimes it is messed up, and I am having troubles with two logic chops that now behave completely different. (I can’t get a trigger signal from the buttons, it still behaves as toggle on/off).

I tried also to fix it by paying attention not to have the same names inside (logic1 for example) the base and outside the base but that didn’t help either.

Any idea how I could debug or prevent this from happening?
I would upload the project file but since it is something I have from patreon I’m afraid the original creator would be happy if I upload it here.

Best,
Ray

ok, I made a bit of progress with the help of these two threads:

Logic CHOP not working properly (On Value Change)

Logic CHOP not working properly (On Value Change)

Hi there, I’m having a little problem with the Logic Chop. I am using it to trigger a loading animation in TD via OSC (when any button on my OSC interface is pressed). Therefore, I merged all of my OSC In channels and connected them to a “On Value Change” Logic CHOP which then triggers the animation. It works fine in a blank TD file, but if I am using it in my larger project file the signal from the OSC In doesn’t reach the Logic. All the CHOPs before the Logic display a signal when a button …

Movie File In dropped frames

Movie File In dropped frames

Hello @Zara7 Is your whole process dropping frames ? Or you just see the video randomly freezing ? You can use a Perform CHOP and have look at the dropped_frames channel. [image] You can add a Trail CHOP after the perform CHOP to have a better look at any possible spikes in frame drops. I hope this helps, Best, Michel

It seems I’m loosing frames and that’s why I can’t see the trigger impulse, from what I understood. Putting a trail after the logic CHOP clearly shows that there is a trigger bang.

How can I avoid loosing frames? I’m using a HAP movie file…
Is this a CPU issue? Since it happens in bigger project I assume that’s what’s the case, right?

Best, Ray

Hi @ray12

The Logic CHOP is timesliced meaning in the a case of skipping frames, the potentially missed data is still present in the Logic CHOP, now as multi sample data - so it depends a bit how you use the data from the Logic CHOP after.

Would you be able to share the tox and also mention the build you are running this with?

cheers
