Multiple instruments, single project or multiple projects?

Yes. It does the same thing as copying a module with Ctrl+C.

This is excellent news, I'm glad I checked in with you before I went any further :D

The functions only seem to be available for Modulators and Effects, I get a function not found error when attempting export state on a Midi Processor.

const var script = Synth.getMidiProcessor("Script Processor");
script.exportState();

I've put together a script using the export and restore state functions that will save all modulators and effects with the preset, the global userPresetData and the panel should be in whichever script is going to have the front interface of course but I've included them all in one script for the purpose of this demo. If we can have these export and restore functions working for scripts too then it will be really easy to use the preset system without having to hard code the saving and loading for each control of each script.

Alright I added the missing functions (along with the functions for restoring synths as a whole).

I also spent another tool that creates such a Base64 String from the currently selected module (Edit -> Create Base64 string).

This solution is not yet 100% clean because it recompiles the scripts which is actually not something you want when restoring presets. I'll have to change it so that the string only contains the content values.

It's commited so feel free to check it out.

d.healey

Awesome, thanks Christoph!

Christoph Hart

Alright, I just commited the improvement for the script processors - it just restores the content values without recompiling the script - the onControl Callbacks get executed of course.

Check out the example that switches the table values of another script processor:

Thanks, going to build this now :D

"(along with the functions for restoring synths as a whole)."
Could you tell me a bit more about this?

Also I noticed an issue with the script I'd made, if you add a modulator to an envelope and then click the save button, then you remove the modulator and then hit load the saved modulator won't reappear until you add another modulator to the envelope. Playing around with this and changing the values in the modulator etc can also cause HISE to crash and close.

Christoph Hart

Just use Synth.getChildSynth() and call the export / restore methods on this object to restore whole sound generators (and even samplers with sample maps).

Adding modulators programmatically is a bit difficult because it sometimes doesn't update the interface (if it's of any help, the compiled versions won't have this problem...)

I'll need to check this a bit more thoroughly. Can you reproduce a crash with certain steps or is it just random?

d.healey

I made a quick video to demonstrate how to cause the crash using the script I posted yesterday. Also how do you post code here so it's on one line like you do? I use the ``` but it's always placed in a large box.

Christoph Hart

Thanks, I'll investigate.

You are posting XML snippets. If you post HiseSnippets (the ones you get using File -> Export -> Export as Web Snippet), you'll get a String without line breaks which fits nicely in one line...

d.healey

Cool, I found another way to crash HISE :) this time I'm using restore and export on childSynths, basically whenever I make a change and hit save and load it crashes. Try adding a container and a sampler to the container and it crashes instantly without having to press any buttons even!

Christoph Hart

Alright, thanks. BTW, do you know how to run HISE in debug mode from within Visual Studio?

Just change the configuration to Debug in VS2015, compile and it should open a debug instance. If you get a crash there, it stops in the debugger and points to the line of code which causes the crash.

This information will vastly improve the efficiency of tracking down those bugs - not that there are any left :)

d.healey

That's a good idea, I shall do it :)

d.healey

Just tried building the debug 64bit and I got this fatal error:
"1>D:\HISE Development Builds\HISE-master\projects\standalone\JuceLibraryCode\hi_native_jit.cpp : fatal error C1128: number of sections exceeded object file format limit: compile with /bigobj"

The regular standalone 64bit build worked fine though.

Christoph Hart

Ah yes, that one. Go to Project -> Properties (Alt+F7) -> C++ -> Command Line and add /bigobj in the
Additional Options box (which should be empty).

This happens because the Debug version creates a bigger intermediate object file before linking it to the executable and your computer is maxed out on RAM for these steps.

d.healey

With the code I posted a few days ago and the crash I described with the container and sampler the debugger breaks here:
alt text

Using the same code, adding a sampler, making changes, saving and restoring them using my scripted buttons crashes HISE at this point
alt text

I'm really not sure what I need to be looking for in VS it's been many years since I did any work in it and nothing on the scale of HISE so hopefully these images are of some use!

Christoph Hart

That's what I suspected, thanks for checking this. BTW, if you click on "Break" in the last picture, it should point you to the line (that would be interesting, because the second error is a bit more critical because it wants to read from an object that was already deleted (and even then, it should say 0x0000000005 and not 0xFFFFFFFFF.... :)

d.healey

Have you found a solution for this crash?

Multiple instruments, single project or multiple projects?
