Using a Table DAT to cycle through menu options

Hi guys. I have created a custom component and one of the parameters is a menu with 10 different settings for a composites operation type. How do I use a Table DAT and chops to automate cycling through the menu options? I have a count chop connected to a select dat to cycle through the table rows and that outputting to a dat to chop. However I can’t successfully connect it to the component. I cant find any tutorials for this even though it seems like a common thing to want to do. Please help me!

Hi @Chewit13,

usually you export or reference channels in parameters to change them based on the CHOP channel value. The expression would look similar to this:

op('myChopOperator')['theChannelName']

Alternatively, if the menu values are already written in the DAT, you could also reference the cell directly with something similar to this:

op('myDatOperator')[rowNumber, colNumber]

for more on driving parameters, make sure to check out our curriculum at

especially the section on Controlling OPs with CHOPs might be of interest.

Hope this helps
