Develop branch cannot support more than 19 scripts

[Lindon]

@d-healey meanwhile I'm going in the complete opposite direction and rebuilding from the ground up .....

So far I've re-set up all the backend sound sources and fx and rebuilt the UI, I've found:

-- only that HISE develop doesn't seem to like Slot FX very much (or copying them around anyway..)

So far I've re-set up all the backend sound sources and fx and rebuilt the UI, I've found:

-- only that HISE develop doesn't seem to like Slot FX very much (or copying them around anyway..)

....and I started adding in the scripts ... leaving the interface script until last....

they all work fine right up until I add the rangefilter scripts, and it crashes....

Here's the contents of the range filter scripts:

const var LowRange = Content.addKnob("LowRange", 0, 0);
LowRange.setRange(0, 126, 1);
const var HighRange = Content.addKnob("HighRange", 150, 0);
HighRange.setRange(1, 127, 1);
const var FadeButton = Content.addButton("FadeButton", 300, 12);

const var SubMults = [0.7,0.65,0.6,0.5,0.4,0.3,0.25,0.2,0.1,0.05,0.025,0.0125,0.0125];
SubMults.reserve(15);

function onNoteOn()
{
    //Console.print(Message.getNoteNumber());
    if (FadeButton.getValue() == 0)
    {
        // not fading out strictly cutting off
        if(Message.getNoteNumber() < LowRange.getValue() || Message.getNoteNumber() > (HighRange.getValue()))
        {
            Message.ignoreEvent(true);
        }
    }else{
        //cut things outside the fade ranges...
        if(Message.getNoteNumber() < LowRange.getValue()-12 || Message.getNoteNumber() > (HighRange.getValue()+12))
        {
            // outside everything - just cut.
	        Message.ignoreEvent(true);
        }
        if (Message.getNoteNumber() > HighRange.getValue() && Message.getNoteNumber() <= (HighRange.getValue()+12))
        {
            // in the high range fade range
            Message.setVelocity(Message.getVelocity()* SubMults[Message.getNoteNumber() - HighRange.getValue()]);
        }
        if (Message.getNoteNumber() < LowRange.getValue() && Message.getNoteNumber() >= (LowRange.getValue()-12))
        {
            // in the low range fade range
            Message.setVelocity(Message.getVelocity()* SubMults[LowRange.getValue() - Message.getNoteNumber() ]);
        }
        
    }
	    
}
 function onNoteOff()
{
    if (FadeButton.getValue() == 0)
    {
        // no fade just cut
	    if(Message.getNoteNumber() < LowRange.getValue() || Message.getNoteNumber() > (HighRange.getValue()+12))
	        Message.ignoreEvent(true);
    }else{
        // is it outside all fading ranges?
        if(Message.getNoteNumber() < LowRange.getValue()-12 || Message.getNoteNumber() > (HighRange.getValue()+12))
	        Message.ignoreEvent(true);
    }
	    
}
 function onController()
{
	
}
 function onTimer()
{
	
}
 function onControl(number, value)
{
	
}
 

-- nothing is jumping out at me....

@lindon I don't see anything unusual there. I'm off to cook dinner but I'll dig a bit deeper when I'm back.

[Lindon]

@d-healey --and now just like every other version its crashing no matter what I do to it.....grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[ustk]

@Lindon I don’t know if it’ll have an impact but instead of calling things multiple times I would store the note number in a reg, and same thing for the range values

[Lindon]

@ustk what?

Yeah I have to call it quits for today too?

@ustk what? er we are talking about using multiple scripts (one per voice) so its more modular...

You can use a local in the MIDI callbacks, I don't know if this is better than a reg...

[ustk]

@d-healey For what I understand a reg is faster, hence more suitable for real-time stuff...

[ustk]

@d-healey Also I thought locals were only declarable in an inline, never tried in a midi CB though...

Interface script should be deferred in this case and shouldn't be doing real time stuff Ignore me, I was thinking this is the main interface script :p

Also I thought locals were only declarable in an inline, never tried in a midi CB though...

With the exception of the built in callbacks that seems to be true.

After disabling everything and re-enabling it one by one, saving in between and reloading HISE. The project now opens every time without crashing!

@Lindon I'll send you a snippet that is opening for me and you can see if it magically works for you as well.

Regarding the real time UI stuff, it's parts like this.

for (ondx=0; ondx<7;ondx++)
{
    if (FMAmtVelos[ondx].getValue() == 1)
    {
        //Console.print((Message.getVelocity()/ 1.27)/100); // * (127/100));
                 
        FMAmounts[ondx].setValue((Message.getVelocity()/ 1.27)/100);
        FMAmounts[ondx].changed();
   }
}

I try to avoid loops in real time altogether if possible, but this one is just updating a UI component and triggering its callback. This should be in a deferred script. The action that you need to happen in real time (presumably whatever happens when the component's callback is triggered) should go in a separate non-deferred script. This approach will probably require a significant restructuring of your project at this stage though so if it's working for you then don't go down the rabbit hole.

The only other thing I noticed in general about the project is it takes a bit of time to open and the CPU usage idles quite high (around 10%) for me. I think this is due to the effects and other modules rather than your scripts so probably not much you can do about it.

@d-healey - great thanks mate - I will give it a try - what was the problem can you identify it?

I wasn't able to pin it down to anything in particular.

[ustk]

@d-healey Maybe comparing the 2 project folders (original and fixed) with a tool could show up the difference and point to a Hise bug (like in an xml file or something)?
