Triggering (not toggling) sequences with SendMessage

Post by DJ Mike »

I'm using SBDJ's cue plugin in VirtualDJ to talk to FreeStyler via the SendMessage protocol. While I understand the basics of issuing commands, what puzzles me is whether it is possible to issue a command to always *play* a specific cue. At the moment, it seems like all commands I issue are toggling a sequence on and off.

What I want is to put markers in a song which specifically set off certain cues during that song, but I want to guarantee that those sequences will play. If the sequence is already playing and VirtualDJ issues the command to play the sequence, all my lights stop!

Any help appreciated! :)
