Is it possible to bake in extra meta data into SampleMaps?
-
I have a system where I have sidecar files next to each of my samplemap xml files. But then I've also turned my samplemaps into monolithic ch1 files. So my metadata (custom things like category, author, studio location, sound source, etc) gets picked up in the HISE standalone dev environment. But not inside the compiled plugin. Still trying to trace down why. But it strikes me that if I can avoid a sidecar file, and just embed the data directly into the sample map and the final ch1 file, then that would be desirable.
Thoughts?

@Orvillain The ch file is just the samples, not the sample map. The sample map is embedded in the plugin.
There is no method for adding additional data to the sample map, a separate file (or files) is the way to go. If these are data files (like json or xml) you need to put them in the app data folder when the plugin installs so that you can find them. If you want them to be embedded in the plugin you need to make them .js files and valid script so that they can be included as scripts.
