Global variable monitoring

Is there a way to actively monitor values of all used global variables, other than a translator that logs all of them—which then presents the issue of running the log live? Thanks

Hi, and welcome to the Bome Community!

In the log window, you would need to click on Dump Vars. image

Any global variable that does not have a value of 0 will be shown.

Usually when I want to track the state of a global variable (such as ga). I turn the rules checkbox on in the log window and would put something like “ga=” in the quick filter.
Finally, you can use the logging feature of Bome MIDI Translator Pro to send a log entry to the output as specific points in the project that may be of interest

For instance a rule that says
Log “The value of ga is %ga%”

The filter and logging feature are available on MT Pro version 1.9.0 .

Once you have everything working, of course you can then close the log window.

Also, I usually document use and initialization of all global variables in the rule of one translator as described in this tutorial.
