Overview of functions 

There is an overall of three tabs in DiceTools 1.1.0, 

1 - Check your connection 

As the name says, this allows you to perform a simple test whether your Dicers are connected properly to your computer or not. If they are connected properly, you will see a rainbow effect on both of your Dicers while the test is running. 

2 - Set Dicer to "Shift-Lock" Mode 

This unlocks a function where you don't have to hold down the mode buttons to trigger your own midi-mapped functions in Scratch Live. You can configure the duration you have to press the mode button to activate the hold-mode. Each Dicer and each mode button can be configured seperately. 

3 - Turn LEDs on Shift-Pages on 

This allows you to turn the LEDs which are not dynamically controlled by ScratchLive permanently on. More precise, you can control the LEDs on the shifted LoopRoll pages and the shifted AutoLoop pages of both dicers. 
Every button can be configured independently. Available Colors are "Off", "Red", "Red-orange", "Orange", "Orange-amber", "Amber", "Yellow", "Yellow-green", "Green". 

Quick How-To 

- Connect your Dicers to your computer 
- Start the DiceTools by double clicking on the diceTools.jar file (it may be named differently, depending on whether you are using Windows and Macs) 
- You will see an error message if the Dicers can not be found 
- Please read the "About" information. Remeber: YOU ARE USING THIS TOOL AT YOUR OWN RISK! By clicking on "Close" you accept the displayed terms of service. 
- You can start testing the connection to your Dicer by clicking on "Start", stop testing by clicking on "Stop". This step can be skipped. 
- In the Hold Modes Tab you can configure the duration you have to push each mode-button to enable the hold mode. Set it to 0 to disable the hold-mode 
- In the Lights Tab you can configure the LEDs which are not dynamically controlled by ScratchLive. Chose the color for every button independently. 
- Click on "Apply" to send the settings to the Dicer 
- Click on "Exit" to close DiceTools 

The Dicers will lose their settings whenever you disconnect the master Dicer. Make sure you repeat the procedure above to send the settings back to your Dicers. The settings will be stored on your computer, so whenever you start DiceTools it will recall the last used settings on that computer.
