Activate Switches Externally? (via Stream Deck?)

0 votes
Hiya!

I have a quick (and probably quite odd) question...:

I'd like to be able to control (change) switches via an external controller like a Stream Deck. Ideally I'd like to assign a button for each switch state and just activate them accordingly, but I have not been able to figure out how to do so just yet...

Use case: switching between different sets of music playlists via simple button presses.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Ah, think I figured it out (for my use case, at least)!

Loopback MIDI + the free MIDI plugin add-on for the Stream Deck

RTPC controlling the switch group, with specific values (0-127 to make it easy for standard MIDI CCs)

Build template for your stream deck and match it in Wwise.

Heck yeah! :)
