The definitive feature request & bug fix roadmap

@ustk said in The definitive feature request & bug fix roadmap:

Documentation

Seeing the number of questions we all have concerning building Hise or compiling projects, having a compatibility chart in the documentation would be great.

• OS version
• Processor
• Xcode/VS version
• IPP version
• known DAWs issues maybe... but that would require DAWs version for it to be reliable so...

I don't think Christoph should do this, this can be a community job. Maybe make another thread to gather all the info before adding it to the docs.

Feature Request

Add Server.getPendingCalls() API

EDIT: API added, pull request done. Accepted.

[Lindon]

Feature request
Message.isNoteActive(id)

Done: Synth.isArtificialEventActive() - only works with artificial events, but it should cover almost all use cases of this method.

[d.healey]

Feature Set number of times to play loop. A sampler option (probably) that lets us specify the number of times a loop should play before continuing on to the end of the sample (with the option of endless looping of course).

Nah, that's too complicated (plus I think the streaming engine caps away the audio material after the loop point so making this edge case work would be super complicated).

[ustk]

Bug or Stupid Greg 2.0
The Server.getPendingCalls() I implemented does not seem reliable.
The array length is zero while I still have a pending call in the serverController. The thread shouldn't be empty right?

EDIT: It seems that to get at least 1 element, you need at least 2 calls pending. Otherwise with 1 call at a time it stays empty...

EDIT2: I changed the method to use getNumPendingRequests instead but the result is the same...

Feature Request: TABLE CURVES: An alternative to having to use the mousewheel to curve the paths. I think its much more intuitive to either have a 'curve node' in the middle of each path or just being able to grab the path line itself and move it (the path would need to react to mouse hover)

[UD AUDIO]

Bug:

[UD AUDIO]

Bug:
Can't set a table curve back to 50%
once it was set to 100 or 0 using mouse wheel.

It jumps from 47 and 52 if you move from 0 to 100
and from 53 to 48 if you move from 100 to 0.

[UD AUDIO]

Feature Request:
More advanced LFO
-Panning
-Wider frequency range (maybe stepwise)
-Bars/Beats settings

For more, you might take a look
at the bottom functions on the GUI in the first screenshot here:

[DanH]

BUG?

AudioWaveform now has a nice green box around it in Develop Branch that can't be changed / removed

[Lindon]

Feature Request

It would be nice to be able to set the line width in Custom drawn tables...and in LFO displays:

[ustk]

@Lindon Unless I'm wrong, I reckon it is the job of the Table LAF
https://docs.hise.audio/glossary/custom_lookandfeel.html#table-editor

[d.healey]

@DanH I think that will disappear once you compile. It's the same for tables.

[DanH]

@d-healey indeed you are right. Better to remove altogether imo :)

I had the exporter pointing to wrong version of HISE, the compiled plugin using develop branch crashes on load

[DanH]

BUG FIX:

Issue when changing sample maps that manages to trigger fx in send / return using routing matrix

EDIT - potentially something to do with Simple Gain module as this can still happen without using the Routing Matrix

https://forum.hise.audio/topic/4370/combo-box-fx-routing-matrix-bug/2

[ustk]

Node Feature
envelope.simple_ar doesn't yet have an external data slot menu.

[MikeB]

BUG AudioLoopPlayer is empty

In my current project, they appear at init through Engine.loadAudioFilesIntoPool();
a sample in the AudioLoopPlayer. Others are loaded via script.

if I open the project with the last develop version
the AudioLoopPlayer is empty
Loading samples via script does not work!

[Natan]

@MikeB You Need To Change The Audiowaveform Index To 0 And It Will Show Up :)

[Lindon]

Feature Request

Its a bit of a pain every time I build a new HISE image to have to go modify the source to account for these so....:

The ability to set (in ProJucer) the text of a couple of dialog boxes:

• audio interface not found:

https://forum.hise.audio/topic/4079/looking-for-audio-interface-not-found-message/2?_=1625066208727

The Samples not found dialog:

https://forum.hise.audio/topic/2006/the-sample-directory-does-not-exist-how-can-i-change-this-text

So can we have a couple of variables like the one for envelope animation...?

[d.healey]

@Lindon Can't those dialogs (including text) be customised with LAF?
