Factory Preset Creator
-
Yes some font customisation would be good. I'll see if I can work my GUI to make a bit more room for the preset browser. My GUI doesn't have a lot of controls so I don't need it to be too big.
-
With the floating tile system this function no longer seems to work
Engine.setLowestKeyToDisplay();Perhaps it should be included in the styleData? -
Ah yes, this is deprecated. I'll remove this function.
You can already customize a few things with the keyboard. This is the full JSON:
Content.makeFrontInterface(600, 200); const var keyboardData = { "Type": "Keyboard", "LayoutData": { "Size": 72 }, "KeyWidth": 14, // change the width per key in pixels "LowKey": 9, // set the lowest key to display "HiKey": 127, // set the highest key to display - no need to change that actually :) "CustomGraphics": false, // if true, it looks in {IMAGE_FOLDER}/keyboard for files called up_0.png ... to up_12.png and down_0.png to down_12.png "DefaultAppearance": true, // set this to false to use custom graphics "BlackKeyRatio": 0.69999999 // change the relative height of the black keys } const var FloatingTile = Content.addFloatingTile("FloatingTile", 0, 0); // [JSON FloatingTile] Content.setPropertiesFromJSON("FloatingTile", { "width": 600, "height": 80 }); // [/JSON FloatingTile] FloatingTile.setContentData(keyboardData); -
Excellent!

I noticed the exportScriptControls functions show up in the API browser for effects and modulators too but when I try to use the restore function it produces an error.
-
I've called them exportScriptControls / restoreScriptControls so that it's pretty clear that this works only for script modules.
Yes, if you call this on a module that isn't a script, it will produce an error. The API function is there because you can create scripted modulators and effects which use this function.

I think I've finally finished my first full HISE library - with the exception of some URL parsing ;). A collection of woodwind instruments. I've completed a factoryPreset creation library that I've used to save and automatically load all of the settings of the various instruments in this collection, including keyboard range and colouring, and sample maps. There are a few caveats which I'll get around to explaining in a tutorial video at some point but you're welcome to use it as it is. The code is available at my GitHub repo - https://github.com/davidhealey/HISE-Scripting-Framework/tree/master/v3/libraries

looks great! im hoping i can learn from this. it seems you have presets and samplemaps all the way down which i was still having an issue with
-
nvrmnd i have no idea what to do with this stuff lol
-
I've just compiled the instrument to a VSTi and opened it in Reaper but the preset browser doesn't show any of my factory presets... any suggestions @Christoph-Hart?
-
ive been having the same issue with my project. none of the user presets show up in the preset browser on standalone and vst compile
-
i found it wasnt copying the user presets to appdata/roaming(yourpluginfolder) and i was able to get it to show my presets by pasting them in there. however it doesnt load a preset initially and also im still having issues with it recalling samplemaps per user preset
-
The user presets are supposed to be copied by your installer to the app data directory but there are some weird file permission issues on the latest macOS which is why I am thinking about embedding them in the binaries and extracting them at first launch anyway.
-
And it doesn't load a preset but restores the exact state when you exported it.
-
I see, I was mislead here
"On compilation, all files within these folder will be embedded in the plugin (which will then be available as read-only factory presets. Additionaly there will be a folder where the end user can store its preset files."
-
Ah you're right, I changed this after writing this blog entry because the combination of hardcoded presets with user presets was a mess. I'll update the post.
