I started coding a quick proof of concept for recording chasers in real time for a show. The code is forked on my github. https://github.com/lelazary/qlcplus
To use it, set up a show and add a chaser and set the per-step for
the duration. There is now a rec button next to the play and stop. Press the rec button and then play the show. Based on the fixtures in the
scene, it will map the inputs where 0 is the first bar in the scene, 1
is the second etc. For now I am using a midi input, so I mapped 0 to
value 128 which is the lowest c on the keyboard. When you hit the rec
again it will stop. To see the values click away from the chaser and
then back again.
I coded this in a couple of hours as a proof of concept. This might
be highly buggy, but I wanted to see if there are any other solutions
for this before going forward. The method using a separate midi software going to virtual console does not work for me (I want this to work on
the pi, and there are not allot of resources).
I love QLC+, and in my option this is the one thing thats missing from it.
Hello Lior, sorry for the delay.
It sounds like an interesting functionality.
A few little requests:
- if the code is ok and tested, can you please send me a pull request on Github ?
- can you also give an example how to use the recording feature ? For example which DAW you used, MIDI routing, etc...
A video showing it would be even better
It's gonna take a few days before I can process this, among other inputs that came out lately
Thanks

Thanks for the response,
The code still needs some more work, so I am going to wait a while before sending a pull request. I was just checking if no one else is working on it, and if there are any other better ways of doing this. I am trying to finish my Halloween display so I will need to finish the code before that. I will to wrap it up in a couple of weeks as well as documentations and a video.
Thanks again,
