Index issue with Sample maps?

[ThinkTank]

Hello all,

I have 3 samplers, with a combobox each for selecting samplemaps.
However presets gets messed up, and the samplers load wrong samplemaps when i add new sample maps in HISE.

How would i go around this issue?

ChatGPT recommends doing it in a manual way:
const var sampleMapNames = ["SampleMap1", "SampleMap2", "SampleMap3", ...];

That just seems and feels so wrong

Put a number at the beginning of all sample map names and sort the array so that new sample maps are always at the end.

Would you care to share a code of that?

• or snippet?
  Not sure how to make a combobox sort by number...

ChatGPT says:

const var pianos = Content.getComponent("pianos");

// Manually list your sample map names here in the order you want
const var sampleMapNames = ["01_Piano", "02_Violin", "03_Flute", ...]; // and so on

pianos.set("items", sampleMapNames.join("\n"));

inline function onpianosControl(component, value)
{
    var selectedSampleMapName = sampleMapNames[value];
    Sampler1.asSampler().loadSampleMap(selectedSampleMapName);
};

pianos.setControlCallback(onpianosControl);

But i dont want to write all my sample maps in manually

ChatGPT says:

There is a built in function to get an array of sample maps. Once you've got it you can sort it using the built in sort functions.

// Make Sound Selector (Layer A)

const var pianos = Content.getComponent("pianos");

// Retrieve the array of sample map names using the built-in function
const var sampleMapNames = getSampleMapList(); // Assuming this is the correct function name

// Sort the array
sampleMapNames.sort();

pianos.set("items", sampleMapNames.join("\n"));

inline function onpianosControl(component, value)
{
    // Directly use the array and index without re-declaring a local variable
    Sampler1.asSampler().loadSampleMap(sampleMapNames[value]);
};

pianos.setControlCallback(onpianosControl);

Seems to not work

@ThinkTank The getSampleMapList() function is part of the Sampler class so needs to be called on a Sampler reference. For example if you had a reference variable called Sampler1 you could use Sampler1.getSampleMapList();

I think i got it, thanks!
