That is what I did in the end I created a shell file. I could not get the bash -c to work. This solution probably won't work in Windows.

One thing that would work for this use case is if the scripting allowed for the interim storage of the result of a systemcommand call - some like this

%v = systemcommand:audtool arg1:get-volume
systemcommand:audtool arg1:set-volume arg2:%v - 1

Not sure about how the syntax will work but that would give us the start of the capability to read and set dmx channel values via these variables.

systemcommand:/bin/sh arg:/home/pi/PP-QLC-Lights/ShowVoxON.sh // copies show file with vocals to correct location


This is what in a few different versions I use to change audio files used in a show... works great. Attach it to a button and OSC command.
