isPluginParameter and Midi CC (not working in HISE 4.0.0 and 3.x.x)

@Christoph-Hart @d-healey You are much more experienced than me. If you think the expected behavior is the actual one, I'm ok with that. I just saw the opposite on commercial grade plugins.

@Christoph-Hart said in isPluginParameter and Midi CC (not working in HISE 4.0.0 and 3.x.x):

You end up with two automation tracks which do the same thing if you have recorded a MIDI CC automation and the plugin parameter automation, so that's a point on my side, no?

This is the problem. We should be able to record everything in the parameter automation lane, but as it is it appears we have to use a controller lane for CC data and a parameter lane for parameter data when the knob is moved with the mouse on the GUI.

To put it another way, recording into the parameter automation lane with MIDI learn doesn't seem to work.

@Christoph-Hart having two automation tracks for the same parameter seems no good.
Which one wins the contest when playing?
What happens when correcting a live recorded track (aka cc) with, let say a touch-latch mode rec with the mouse?
A lot of weird case scenari are waiting to show... well maybe not so many, seeing this came out just today

@Christoph-Hart Apparently you fixed this issue before - https://forum.hise.audio/topic/8695/ismetaparameter-automation-help/5

:)

[Christoph Hart]

@d-healey I think that was related to directly recording automation through a mapped parameter in the DAW and not through the MIdI assignment within the plugin.

[d.healey]

@Christoph-Hart ah yes that's a good point!

[d.healey]

@hisefilo In your second gif (the Jimmy's shack one) are you using MIDI learn to control the slider?

[hisefilo]

@d-healey no. Comes learned. But I unlearned and learned again to check. Same results

[d.healey]

@hisefilo I remembered that when I'm automating parameter in my DAW I assign the CC directly to the automation lane rather than using MIDI learn, I don't know if that's available in all DAWs though.

[hisefilo]

@d-healey logic live reaper afaik does that. Both ways are available
