Sujet Control a plugin via Midi?

Hello VDJ World :)

Recently VDJ user (changed from the others)

Maybe someone can help me?

The short version:
Is it possible to send a Midi note to a plugin via settings/script by keystroke or custom button?

The long version:
I want to load certain presets from the launchpad into the plugin.
The plugin (Looperator)
https://sugar-bytes.de/de/looperator
allows the preset to be started by MIDI note.
( D#1 for example )



Is it possible to send this Midi note to the plugin by pressing a key?

The other version:
Launchpad
BUT_VERT_5
PAD_1_1 glows white
if pressed -> Load plugin "Looperator" in Player_01 EffectSlot_2
PAD_1 lights up red
------------
BUT_VERT_5
PAD_2_1 lights green
if pressed->enable effect in Player_1 Effectslot_2
PAD_2_1 lights up red
if pressed again->deactivate effect in Player_1 Effectslot_2
PAD_2_1 lights green
---------
BUT_VERT_5
PAD_3_1 lights green
if pressed->send Midi Note D#1

------------------
Can this be realized via VDJ script? Or do I need other tools for it?

My setup:
MCX 8000
Novation Launchpad MKII
OS: Windows 10
VirtualDJ 2021 PRO Infinity
I use the default mapping for the MCX and the Launchpad.

I have already searched the forum and the help pages, but unfortunately I didn't find anything suitable.
I hope that my question is understandable...
(sorry for the not perfect English)

I don't think you can do it with VDJ alone, but you can use a script to pipe OS2L commands to a virtual MIDI device.

Not sure for MIDI from VDJ,
"miditovst_active" in a way to pass midi through VDJ to the VST
in conjonction with a script to pipe OS2L commands to a virtual MIDI device.

the other solution can be to control the VST directly from VDJ :
the VST exposes 120 controls that can individually be used as a slider using "effect_slider" "LoopOperator" <slider> <value>
maybe the needed controls are accessible this way

Thanks for your answers.

I'll take a closer look.
At the moment I have solved this quite unspectacularly.

The plugin remembers the last status.
I simply copied the plugin and started several instances.

at least one workaround but not the final solution yet :)
