@MikeB -- Lindon, Hull UK, Audio Developer, before that I worked in Telecommunications (real time and all that - not as complicated as it sounds) and before that I was a record producer....before that I was a starving/failing musician.

So for those of us who have spent the required hard-yards in the sampling business we have a very specific idea of what "legato" means, and frankly this aint what "modern" synths behave like. Stiil we are often asked to recreate this "synth-based" glide portamento legato, what th ***k else you want to call it...thing. And in my experience its a royal PITA to do....

Essentially notes glide between any currently held note on play or release as long as something is held down...and if a truck load of notes are held then they glide in played order....(where truck load == 2+)

HISE is not best set up for this sort of thing - or so I thought.

So after about 6 goes at this and also after the realisation that I really really need a holiday. I think I have it (or a close approximation of it). As I wouldn't want anyone else to have to go through the outrageous process I went thru to get here I decided to release it. So here it is - again MIT licensed so all yours to use...

Frankly I never want to have to do this again......so please dont ask for amendments, you will have to make them yourself, and if you find a bug - again you will have to fix it yourself - please post your resulting code here.

Meanwhile I'm off to Italy see you in a month, well from next week anyway...

@Lindon ....

Feature Request
@Christoph-Hart - Please can we have bus effects (send and receive) as per this discussion :

https://forum.hise.audio/topic/1983/feature-request-the-case-for-bus-containers

-- wow I just re-read the thread I pointed to - I've been a pita about this .....sorry.

So happy holidays to everyone who has them at this time of year.. Anther great year for HISE and this community, tho I did get too many t-shirts this year...

Feature Request

MIDI out.

......Ok that's me done for 2023, so wishing you and yours a safe and festive holiday season and a prosperous, healthy and happy 2024...

Thanks to all of you for making it a great community..... now where did I put that T-Shirt?

So I've seen a few posts here asking how to "do" an LED-style control, and there's been a few answers - all of which seemed to require adding in a png for the LED itself.

So as I needed (or wanted) one of these that used vector drawing, and one that had some level of "red-line" warning as well as momentary peak measurement too I coded one up. You might want to use it - or adapt it to your needs.

So caveat no.1 : as @ustk has said elsewhere - this is not really a gain meter - its approximates one as it uses 100 milliseconds between each measure - so it may miss some peaks. But in any case:

I'm pretty sure the code could do with re-factoring so I'm always interested in a better version if you want to comment or contribute...

...sliding in late... happy holidays everyone...

Happy holidays everyone...have a fun safe time.

@Christoph-Hart thanks for getting this back on track...OK well Im using a Hardcoded master FX to host my filters as they are korg and obi models not available in HISE, and Im using(not that Ive mentioned it) another HCFX for the FM modulation as FM mod seems to be broken in Syntheseiser groups now....So i think this points me down path 2, which is a problem as I have no idea how to script an extra mod chain to respond to note on and get an array value with a counter...

Ok so whilst my post about timing problems and modulation disappears into an evangelical discussion about AI.....

I cant seem to get the Global Routing Manager to work with EventData modulators when placed in HardCodedMasterFX, it works fine with std fx and places we'd put modulation, gain, pitch, filter freq etc.

Any one else have this problem?

@Lindon ok so heres my first question:
assuming Im attaching to Filter frequency using index 0, what do I put in nextValue, can it be a normalised value or does it have to be in the applicable range (20 ->20K )??

@dannytaurus thanks, sadly Claude has it wrong as the interface script isnt deferred and point 1 was Daves idea so thats worth a try, point 2 is interesting never thought of doing it this way might give it a go, tho my knowledge in this area is very very limited.

thank again.

@David-Healey said in Instrument Design problem.......:

@Lindon If it's a custom effect could you implement the MIDI handling directly inside it using MIDI nodes?

perhaps, not sure that will solve the delay problem, but itas not so problematic on the FM side so I will look at it... thanks again.

@David-Healey said in Instrument Design problem.......:

@Lindon said in Instrument Design problem.......:

Sadly I dont think so, its a drum player, so the note number is the same for every incoming note,

Does it have to be?

For gain and pitch you can change these on the individual events instead of using an effect or modulator.

Yes thats true, i might look at doing that at least for these values, it still leaves me with Filter Freq and FM depth (its a scriptnode Faust effect), but it should improve things, thanks.

@David-Healey said in Instrument Design problem.......:

@Lindon There is a note number modulator you can put in the modulation chains, would that solve it and avoid scripting?

Sadly I dont think so, its a drum player, so the note number is the same for every incoming note,

@Lindon said in Instrument Design problem.......:

I set these new "FX Params" in the interfaces on note call back.

If you do need to script it I'd put this stuff in a separate MIDI processor and leave the interface deferred.

Yeah once I have it working I will attend to that...

So I have an instrument design problem....

I'm implementing a per-note modulation system: for each sampler in my system - each time a note arrives I look up the next value in an array and set the target effects parameter. I am aiming to modulate Gain, Pitch, and Filter freq.

I set these new "FX Params" in the interfaces on note call back.

This all works, but.......

I have a timing issue: the note passes to the sampler and it begins to play before the FX param change has completed. So this produces an audible effect, for instance if the previous note had a loud gain setting, and the new note has a quiet one, the new note begins to play at the old setting before moving to the new setting giving me a nasty audible click.

So I need to not start the note until these FX changes have completed, and for the life of me I cant think of a nice way to do this....

So the ugly ways to do it....

1. ignore the incoming note and then use a fixed length timer to duplicate the note event.... now I have to manage publishing some fixed delay time to the DAW- with no g'tee everything is done...

2. Publish(use Globals - ugh!) each modified value for each FX param, use a while loop to make sure the target samplers FX params are currently == the published value....

3. use Message.delayEvent - with no g'tee everything is done...

Anyone got any better ideas???
