@Oli-Ullmann Yes I think you're correct. I checked the docs and there is a line about it not meant to be a dynamic state.

@HISEnberg Yes exactly! Since Hise is an instrument and PluginDoctor can only run FXs, you need to interface it with MetaPlugin first. You just get a warning in MP because Hise is still an instrument but just ignore it

update...

I figured it out...

I found the snippet in Docs and modified it for my usage. Yee.

const var rm = Engine.getGlobalRoutingManager(); const var mc = rm.getCable("bars"); const var pnlMasterPlayheadBars = Content.getComponent("pnlMasterPlayheadBars"); pnlMasterPlayheadBars.data.value = 0; mc.registerCallback(function(value) { pnlMasterPlayheadBars.data.value = value; pnlMasterPlayheadBars.repaint(); //Console.print(value); }, AsyncNotification); pnlMasterPlayheadBars.setPaintRoutine(function(g) { var a = this.getLocalBounds(0); g.fillAll(this.get("bgColour")); g.setColour(Colours.withAlpha(this.get("textColour"), 1.0)); var x = a[2] / 100 * (this.data.value * 100); g.drawVerticalLine(x, 0, a[3]); });

@ustk
Yes, thank you very much. In addition to LAF, there is also ScriptModulationMatrix.getModulationDisplayData(String targetId).

However, I actually want to use it for modulation, and I think both LAF and the function getModulationDisplayData run in the UI thread and are therefore not really suitable for modulation. But thanks for the idea! :-)

@Dan-Korneff I haven't ran into that one. Do you have a minimal test project?

@Orvillain
At one point I looked for a way to improve the sound of pitch-shifting, it seemed that the best solution was to build one in Faust or C++. By the way, I think the ScriptNode pitchShift node even bugs during compilation.

@Orvillain @ustk & of course @Christoph-Hart you guys are absolute gems, thanks for all of your input.

For anyone else who may stumble on this thread, the critical documentation is basically found here: extra_mod.

The discussion about doing this for a C++ node seems equally relevant if that tickles your fancy (mine was certainly tickled):

@Ajak Try and see what happens. Im curious lol
