start take playback with MIDI ?

Hello, is it possible to separate play individual takes/markers/regions using MIDI notes ? Thanks for answers

You could make custom actions, eg Custom: play 1 Markers: Go to marker 01 Transport: Play Then assign a shortcut to this action. If you want to control this from a keyboard, you'll have to make sure it's enabled for "control" Alternatively, if you want to fire this off from pre-recorded midi - I think you'll need to put VST: MIDItoReaControlPath (S&M) on that track. There's probably other ways.

Thank You for Answer! "Go to marker" is only available for 30 markers, I need much more ...

brilliantly simple, many thanks, guys!

you're welcome ;)

but this is not all ... 

I need to create a custom action to trigger playbacks that will be triggered by MIDI notes from the mixing console. After each take is played, the playback should stop and the cursor should stay at the final position (not return to the edit cursor) due to the need for time code continuity. Is something like this even possible without reascript ? I created this: Track: Select track 01 Markers: Go to marker 02 Xenakios/SWS: Select items under edit cursor on selected tracks Xenakios/SWS: Play selected items once It works fine, take 02 is played, but cursor always returns to the start position ... Any ideas ? Many thanks!

Solved. if anyone needs it:

If you've got many markers to play from, and you want to trigger this from midi (eg. a keyboard), here's a lua script that might do what you want. It uses the midi note number to select which marker to play from. There's one user configuration possibly required in the script - the base note. So if you want note 36 to start playing from marker 0 (that's the way it's set below), then note 37 will play from marker 1, etc. But you can change this to start at whatever note you like. base_note will always play from marker 0. Code:

Thank you very much, I will test how the script will work for my needs. I'll have to get on with learning scripting ...
