Hi, first time with the Yamaha Companion module.
Iโm looking to get a Fader Level value into a variable, to use it to fade other thing via Companion.
How to get it as a variable? I donโt see FaderLevel into the Variable tab.
Thanks!

Hello and Welcome!
The way variables are created is a little different with my modules.
I would recommend watching the tutorial videos to get a better understanding. If you have questions after that, let me know!

Hi Andy, thanks for your help.
I assume that the variable is not created since I am not connected to the QL yet?
I understand why you did this that way, otherwise there would be too much endpoint to listen for.
But is there a way to force it to be able to program it without have the QL with me ?

And then now you can remove the Q-Sys ๐

Correct.

You could just create a custom variable for testing, then replace it with the auto-created variable once you connect to the console.

Are you speaking to me? What Q-Sys?

No sorry, to @reidwwall, forgot to mention.
