Accessing sampler instance from within midi processor

[Orvillain]

Heya. So I want to access the name of each midi processor instance that a particular script is attached to. Or optionally, I'd just like to get an object reference to its parent.

So this is my generic midi processor script, for example:

var sampler_name = "Sampler1";
var samplerObj = Synth.getSampler(sampler_name);
samplerObj.enableRoundRobin(false);
samplerObj.refreshRRMap();


function onNoteOn()
{
    // blahblahblah
   // round robin processing code here
}
function onNoteOff()
{
    // process biscuits into face
    // etc etc etc
}
 function onController()
{
	// empty
}
 function onTimer()
{
	// empty
}
 function onControl(number, value)
{
	// empty
}

So the issue I'm having is that I want one single generic script for all of my midi processors - around 10 of them, because I have 10 samplers.

My slot_name variable cannot be a hard-coded variable. I was hoping for something like:

var slot_name = this.name;

But the 'this' keyword does not seem to work from inside of a midi processor.

Ultimately I want an object reference to the parent sampler for the midi processor object.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I poured over the docs a fair bit and couldn't see an obvious solution.

@Orvillain You can get the sampler that the processor is within using Synth.getIdList("Sampler")[0];

nnnnghhhhhhhhhhhh!!! This works!

I was misunderstanding the documentation for that function, at the same time as misreading the hierarchy in the module tree. I thought the midi processor was a child of the sampler, but it isn't. It's a child of the synth chain! Doh!

Thanks Dave!

I'm fairly confident this will enable me to have my generic script,

That's how I do it
