HISE Changes and additions...

@DanH I think the Sample and Hold node should do the trick and be a lot more flexible.

[Lindon]

Ok if there are no more I will shuffle these and post to the thread.....

@Lindon Make sure you big up that AI thing

I was thinking of starting it like this:

PHA!!! YOU SCRAWNY GOOD FOR NOTHING KONTAKT KIDDIES - WE ARE ALL AI MONSTERS HERE NOW!!!!

Over the top?

[d.healey]

@Lindon If anything I think you're under-selling it. You definitely need the words "Game Changer" in there.

You can also lead with "30 new features in HISE. Number 29 will absolutely blow your mind! Make sure to read until the end", this way people will be more engaged. Trust me, it works!

..gonna do it....

@Lindon I think you might have misunderstood the modal text input (or I have). I think modal just means it's a popout, rather than it having different modes.

[Lindon]

@d-healey oh likely me then... it jsut pops up and you can type into it?

[d.healey]

@Lindon I will check it now and report back

[Lindon]

@d-healey okey dokey...

[d.healey]

@Lindon Ah found the original post with Christoph's explanation - https://forum.hise.audio/topic/8068/script-panel-label-keyboard-entry/25?_=1707410038122

[aaronventure]

@d-healey It's like the value input that happens when you shift-click a control, you can input the text, and then you get a callback with a function that returns success if user pressed enter or fail if they pressed ESC or clicked elsewhere or exited the input mode by any other means.

The callback allows you to parse the string and then do your thing.

This essentially allows the panel-based controls to have value input but is not locked to panels... it allows any kind of user input anywhere with a callbacks that lets you do... whatever you want!

OK modified the post on VI-C

[clevername27]

@Christoph-Hart HISE is Turing-complete. It doesn't require new features. It needs the existing features to work. And to be documented. HISE is a beautiful train wreck in slow-motion.

[d.healey]

@clevername27 I agree somewhat with this. Shiny new features are great but there there are some long standing bugs that need attention.

[aaronventure]

@d-healey

1. Feature no work
2. Fix it
3. Hey we have new feature
4. Everyone win

[aaronventure]

@aaronventure Jokes aside, a lot of the stuff on this list were fixes in form of features, i.e. upgrades to existing workflows or additions made in a day or two that, by themselves, opened a lot of new possibilities, like modal text input, scriptnode nodes, detect bypass, change slider modifiers, more event control etc.

The work right now seems to be on the multipage creator which looks like it'll be a lot more than just a simple installer, and HISE would truly benefit from a unified deployment method allowing less tech savvy users to deploy plugins, which the MPC will seemingly provide. What's the point of an incredible IDE which lets you connect signal cables to make FX and drag and drop UI elements to create a production ready UI in a few hours without writing a line of code if you then drop the user into the hell that is learning about deployment on 3 platforms including codesigning and not getting lost in it all once you have more than 4 products.

So... this is all fixing (in this case, addressing one the biggest roadbumps for any newbie).

[Christoph Hart]

@aaronventure yup I‘m currently heads deep in the multipage stuff. At some point I‘ve realized that whatever I come up with default styling, people will immediately ask for all kinds of customizations, so now I‘m writing an extensive CSS parser / renderer which you can use to style the dialog like a HTML website. So yeah that‘s a shiny new toy, but it emerged from countless forum topic asking about installers.

When that‘s done I agree we‘ll put in some love into the docs. Dominik is working on a included snippet browser that you can use next to your current project for simple copy and paste of code examples and we think that this might be a good way to organize the resources that are scattered across many places at the moment (forum, docs, tutorial repo, etc)…
