Help with my Solo in Place script

Dan Korneff

I'm scripting a solo/mute matrix for a mixer and have gotten 99% of the way there, but can't figure out the last step without making HISE crash.
I'm storing the value of my mute buttons in the variable muteStatus and the solo status is called soloOn. Hitting a solo button enables the mute buttons for all other channels. Once soloOn = 0, I want to transfer the muteStatus values back to the mute buttons.
I've commented out (what I think ) is the right code on line 62, but it's crashing HISE when I compile.
Snippit and code attached.
Any help is appreciated

Hi, I haven't tried to fix it yet but I've done some clean-up which you might find makes it easier to maintain the code. I renamed all controls and fx so their numbering starts from 0, I replaced all your getComponent/getEffect code with a single loop - btw it's rare that you should need to use getComponent with the same component name twice in the same script.

I'm guessing the reason this line mutebuttons[i].setValue(muteStatus); causes a crash is because muteStatus is an array and you haven't provided an index.

Btw if you're going to release your source code under the GNU GPL I have already created a mic mixer with mute and solo functionality

@d-healey
Thanks! I'm gonna check this out.
This is going to be a closed project, so no GNU GPL.

speaking of cleaning up, is there a better way to express:

solobuttons[0].getValue() == 0 && solobuttons[1].getValue() == 0 && solobuttons[2].getValue() == 0 && solobuttons[3].getValue() == 0

d.healey

@dustbro Yes. What I do is I have a single variable that is set to 1 whenever any solo button is enabled, then all I have to do is check that one variable.

Christoph Hart

I also second David's approach, but even if you're sticking to your method, there's room for improvement.

The laws of logic say

(!A && !B) == !(A || B)

so this expression is shorter (because you don't need the zero comparator)

!(solobuttons[0].getValue() || solobuttons[1].getValue() || solobuttons[2].getValue() || solobuttons[3].getValue())

Programming is fun :)
