set VoiceLimit of sine Wave Generator

[Chazrox]

@rglides shiiid. You're all good then!

[rglides]

@Chazrox oh interesting, yeah I would have thought that'd be some kind of mute hack but nope

[d.healey]

@Chazrox said in set VoiceLimit of sine Wave Generator:

Voice Limit" is paramter [2]

Avoid the magic number, use the parameter name instead OSC1.VoiceLimit

[Chazrox]

@d-healey ah, are these the proverbial "magic numbers" I hear about? It worked either way, I just chose the short version obviously thinking it was better. Thank You!

[d.healey]

@Chazrox Yeah a magic number means you're using the value of a constant instead of the constant itself. So to anyone else looking at your code - or you in the future when you've forgotten what your code does - they just see a number that magically does something but have no idea what it refers to.

[Chazrox]

@d-healey That makes sense. Now I know wth that means. haha Ty. Hope all is blessed!

[rglides]

Yeah it's true, I did update to this

inline function onknb_OSC1_VoiceLimitControl(component, value)
{
		OSC1.setAttribute(OSC1.VoiceLimit, value);
};
Content.getComponent("knb_OSC1_VoiceLimit").setControlCallback(onknb_OSC1_VoiceLimitControl);

but it was very helpful to discover that the function was always working, just not updating in real-time in module window, so the help was massive edit: 'update' I mean revert hehe

@d-healey It would be even better if instead of this:

OSC1.setAttribute(OSC1.VoiceLimit, value);

we could do this:

OSC1.VoiceLimit = value;

but I'm guessing that's too dynamic (or something) for C++?

[d.healey]

@dannytaurus OSC1.VoiceLimit is a constant with a value of 2. So what you're suggesting wouldn't work.

[dannytaurus]

@d-healey Yeah, it's quite different to what I'm used to in Ruby and Rails.
