Latest version of HISE breaks existing presets....

[Lindon]

@Oli-Ullmann Sadly - see below I don't think this is flexible enough or fits with my current approach to using macros...

@David-Healey
I might be OK with this solution as I don't actual use or include Macro controls in my interface, so as usual (when will I ever learn?) I'm doing it a bit different to most people....here's an explanation:

First there's a set of Macro Modulation Sources: every one of them is an LFO:

I "just" define these as macros like this in the code:

	const NUM_MACROS = 6;
	reg mpos;
	
	Engine.setFrontendMacros(["LFO1", "LFO2", "LFO3", "LFO4", "LFO5", "LFO6"]);

Each LFO gets a UI to manage the LFO itself..only:

..and the user can thus freely assign/unassign them to any UI widget they like, by right clicking on a widget, here the Voice 1 Pan control:

When they are assigned the UI control looks like this (using LAF):

Its pretty simple but it seems to be upsetting HISE post April 6th....meanwhile when I get some space I will build a recent version of HISE and try your fix....

@Lindon
If I understand correctly, your project would actually be very easy to implement with the new modulation system, and you wouldn't even need macros anymore. However, you would have to rebuild your project, of course... It would take some work, but it would make it super easy to add new modulators in future updates, if you wanted to.

But maybe I'm misunderstanding something. :-)

@Lindon Yeah I'm not using macro modulators in mine. I'm just using the macro knob's as a way to make one knob on the ui control multiple modulator parameters without me having to script it.

so pretty much the exact opposite of what I'm doing then....that should be enough of a set of test cases to test if any fix was completed.

Hmm, it appears that there is a pretty big matrix of all combinations of macros / matrix modulation / plugin parameters to be tested manually.

The commit in question was perhaps the worst thing I did in 2025 but there's no way back now so we have to somehow find a method to fix all cases and add some regression checks going forward.

[Lindon]

@Christoph-Hart wel as I say I can send you my project to use for testing - and if not then I can surely test using it...

[Lindon]

@Christoph-Hart So how are we going? Is this fixed by any chance? Im stuck on an April 2025 release until it is....

[David Healey]

@Lindon Not fixed yet as far as I can tell.

[Lindon]

@David-Healey bummer...

So still looking for this to get fixed, any chance?
