Plugin parameter values in Pro Tools doesn't load as saved

[JulesV]

Has anyone previously encountered a situation where the plugin parameter values in Pro Tools didn't load when the DAW project was loaded? VST and AU work, but AAX settings don't load when the DAW project starts. PT 2025

@JulesV I think this is a known issue

Were you able to resolve this issue in Pro Tools? Which AAX SDK are you using?

Frankly I abandoned AAX...

Oh no!

@Christoph-Hart Could you find a solution for this? This is a big one.

@JulesV I ended up using a script that checks a flag if the plugin has been initialized or not. something like:

const var ProtoolsParameterFixer = Engine.createTimerObject();
const var InitialState0 = Content.getComponent("InitialState0");

inline function InitializeState()
{
	if(InitialState0.getValue() == 1)
	{
		Engine.loadUserPreset("/Factory Reset.preset");
		InitialState0.setValue(0);
	}


}

ProtoolsParameterFixer.setTimerCallback(function()
{
	InitializeState();
	this.stopTimer();
});

ProtoolsParameterFixer.startTimer(200);

@Dan-Korneff But this isn't a solution for loading the plugin with the settings the user saved in their DAW project, is it? This issue happens on sliders too, not only buttons.

@JulesV My solution is to use a flag. If the plugin is being initialized, load a specific preset that has my settings. if the plugin isn't being initialized, it doesn't do anything special.
