Good Morning! I agree. Here's something I've been doing. Aside from working on my personal plugins, I've been wanting to show my appreciation to the community by designing a set of 3d assets / filmstrips that people can use on their projects.

There are quite a few regulars in here that always get me going when im stuck. I Love it here!

This is just a mockup of one of the kits im working on. All of these assets should be available for anyone to use soon. Dont quote me on "soon". Im sure everyone in here has 10 things going at once lol.

Im still messing around with the faceplate so the actual release might not be exact.

Much Love to the community!
Special Thanks to @Christoph-Hart
and honorable mention to Mr. @d-healey who got me going on all this in the first place!
Im soaking it all in!

@rglides SAMPLE:

*HISE Logo for fun. Dont sue me. lol

Ok just sharing my first 3d Knob that I made! This is gonna be fun.

@lalalandsynth how do you get your shadows to show up in the animation? I can seem to get mine to show up on the transparent areas.

@Chazrox man I really figured this one out on my own and im proud of myself. lol

I started digging around and I opened the corresponding .xml file for the project and noticed in one of the lines that it was pointing to a default preset that no longer existed in the expected folder it was supposed to be in. Turns out I DID do something, which was move that folder that the preset was supposed to be in. I deleted that line and everything opened up as normal. fweeww! Sweats! haha.

this thing...

@clevername27 agreed. Just resubscribed for my second month and the amount that i've learned so far is insane.

@d-healey Woah! That changed the game for me! Now I can use my Blender skills to make my own assets! Cheee! Thank You Sir! Dont mind this crappy design, I just did it for testing.

chanting Lets go Christoph! Lets GO!

Im sure all my bugs are covered here so im just sending some good energy! haha
@Christoph-Hart

Besides my console models, I decided to start making some pedal kits for everyone too! Lmk if you guys have any requests.

const var screenshot = ! Render;
so dont judge my lighting so hard. lol

@d-healey Thank you for all your videos. Im literally learning everything I know from you! Thank You!

@ustk Does this allow audio input in standalone mode?

@d-healey Originally I was trying to draw in a shadow image under the black keys but that seems to throw everything off. I took the shadows off and its good now. Does this drawing function only accept one instance of "g.drawImage()"?

Got it.

jk. Just wanted to share this beauty.

Any tips on getting these dimensions right off top?

Any advice is appreciated! I really just wanted to share this because it looks goofy. lol

Hope everyone's having a great day!

So far the white keys are responsive to midi input but mouse click bounds are off. I tried setting the area for the key but that resulted in only one key being drawn (does that mean I have to loop all the white keys per this method?). I guess this would solve the issue for black keys also if I figured this out. I'll return if I figure it out.

@DabDab That would be cool.

@orange Sweet. Thanks! We'll give this a try again tomorrow!

I've seen somewhere on the forum a method to bypass Mac security using the command prompt dragging the plugin onto it.... Im trying to have a friend demo my plugin but we're stuck trying to get passed security the security block. Thanks in advance if you can help!

@Gab Woah that was pretty smooth.... You're gewwd.

@d-healey I followed along and tried to replicate this and I noticed since 'show text box' is still ticked, the text box resizes and covers the knob when you recompile. So its good when you first resize the knob because the text box somehow keeps its smaller scale and is out of the way, but when you recompile that thing covers the whole button.

@Simon Wow thats pretty impressive. I can only imagine the work on this.
