Trying to get a slider animation to follow the LFO mod

SteveRiggs

After racking my brains for the last week or so on this in another thread with no luck, I've thought of a possible third workaround for this job making a filmstrip slider (Knob1) to solve my animation problem and having that linked to the lfo modulation (LFOModulator1).

I'm basically trying to get the slider to animate up and down on its own so that it reflects the behavior of the custom table in the lfo modulator (so frame 0 on the slider when the custom tables volume is 0, and frame 128 when the custom tables volume is all the way up)

I have a similar thing in another project running gain reduction meters from the dynamics module reduction that works perfectly so I'm trying to adapt it to fit this, but it doesn't seem to work the same way trying to link the slider to the lfo modulation.

I think I know where the problem is in the code but not sure what I need to replace it with. (I think 'GainModulation' needs to be replaced with something else. I've tried a few things but I'm still stuck :( )

Can anyone please tell me what I need to change it to instead of "GainModulation"? ..or if there is something else that I've got wrong?

Heres the code:

const var LFOModulator1 = Synth.getEffect("LFOModulator1");

const var Knob1 = Content.getComponent("Knob1");

const var t = Engine.createTimerObject();
t.setTimerCallback(function()
{
    var v = LFOModulator1.getAttribute(LFOModulator1.GainModulation);
    
    v = Engine.getDecibelsForGainFactor(v);
    
    GainModulation.setValue(v);
});

t.startTimer(30);

Snippet here if anyone can please help...

Bump Bump :)

@SteveRiggs the reference to the LFOMod seems to be wrong, if you want it declared as "generic script"

const var LFOModulator1 = Synth.getModulator("LFOModulator1");

or as Typed table script

const var LFOModulator1 = Synth.getTableProcessor("LFOModulator1");

toxonic

I don't know, if i got you right, but i think you need "LFOModulator1.getCurrentLevel()" to modulate the slider.

@ulrik @toxonic Spot on fellas! Thank you. That makes much more sense now.

:) Nice one

crd

Does this snippet export correctly for anyone using the latest develop build?

It looks correct within hise interface preview but the animation of the knob does not work for me when I export the project as a vsti or standalone. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

This post is deleted!

DanH

@crd works fine here

crd

@DanH Did you try and export it?

I think Engine.createTimerObject() works for gui elements in the interface preview but not on an exported plugin.

I think using an empty panel's timer is the right approach. I'm exporting that attempt now to see if that works.

ulrik

@crd In hise it works fine, but compiled as a standalone it's not working

crd

@ulrik
Thanks... I'm not going nuts :)

maybe it is a getCurrentLevel() issue. Using a panel timer in the above scenario doesn't work either. (It'd be easier to trouble shoot if I didn't have to wait to export to see if what I've done helps.)

crd

I think it must be an issue with getCurrentLevel. The snippet below should export okay but doesn't. It does work fine in the Hise interface preview though.

@Christoph-Hart Am I missing something?

-- remember when using panel timers, they are suspended when you hide your plugin in the DAW...
