How to add an Lfo modulator to an hardcoded Faust FX?

[Sounddiy]

Hi!

I would like to modulate a parameter from an hardcoded faust FX.

• I compiled Hise both "visual studio" and "release with faust" with :
  NUM_HARDCODED_FX_MODS=12
  NUM_HARDCODED_POLY_FX_MODS=12

• I check and I have 12 extra slot :

• I add a extra slot to parent script FX and Change external modulation to combined.
• I compile dsp network and reload Hardcoded network dll but it seems to not work.
  I Do not understand really how to make it work ord perhaps that Faust Fx cannot be modulate...

Thanks !

@Sounddiy the warning icon is telling you what the problem is. the doc says:
https://docs.hise.dev/scriptnode/list/core/extra_mod.html

Note that these two modes are mutually exclusive and you cannot connect a root parameter to a target while having a extra_mod node connected to the same index. If you do so, you'll be greated with this aggressive warning icon:

In fact the connection is happening behind the scene. So just disconnect your parameter and connect the extra_mod node to your FAUST parameter. The index of the node becomes you selector.
So 4 parameters = 4 extra_mod nodes, and indexes 0 to 3.

Thanks @ustk for your help

I find the right way ! :

1 - Just add parameters at the top as many as FX slot, for me : 12

2 - right click on parameters and choose "externalmodulation : combined"
3 - choose colors you want for each Fx slot
4 - export dll
5 - import the new network DLL

I can now add a lfo modulator or a global time variant modulator :

But how max FX slots could we create, 16?

@Sounddiy You can set it in Projucer and it will show you in HISE, Help > About
