@Christoph-Hart Clicking and dragging a connection between routing.send and routing.receive doesn't draw a cable like other connections.

Is this a bug or intended behaviour?

@Christoph-Hart Ah, makes sene now! Is it possible to achieve feedback on one of the fm nodes?

I'm a total noob at ScriptNpode and I'm trying to make a basic 2-operator FM synth.

How close am I?

I can hear the familiar FM twang but why aren't my envelopes working properly? I don't understand how to get them to trigger properly, rather than being gated.

@emzy Your insights on the static vs interactive nature of a chord plugin tally with the conversations I've had with producers in my space.

Chord packs are a big no-no but chord progressions triggered by multiple user inputs (notes played, style settings, MIDI CC, etc) are considered creative.

Still unsure how AI is changing this dynamic though. Some producers are fully anti-AI and others embrace it enthusiastically.

Looks like a great move to step up from selling content for Ripcord to selling your own custom plugin. Good luck!

(I'm slowly developing my own chord plugin, but not yet experienced enough in HISE to partner with you on your project.)

@Christoph-Hart Standalone, both times - now and 15 days ago in the other topic.

@Goodflow Confirmed here with latest develop commit cb60872.

I know this was working 15 days ago because I used it myself during this discussion.

Had a quick poke around for the cause with Claude but shouldn't see anything obvious.

Add a GitHub issue, or I can if you don't deal with GitHub?

@David-Healey @Lindon @Dan-Korneff @DanSound @resonant

What are everyone's feelings on how many emails to send per week/month?

I send barely any emails, partly out of an over abundance of caution against pissing off my customers, partly laziness.

But I'm on a few lists where I get an email almost daily.

Also, what are you emailing them about? Product awareness? Offers/sales/discounts? Education? Third-party stuff?

@JulesV You want the clicked button to become wider by some amount, and the buttons to the right of it to shift along by the same amount?

I would store the x of button one and your required width of btn_off and bin_on in variables.

Then in the button callback, set the position and widths of all the buttons with something like:

PageButtons[i].set("x", x);
PageButtons[i].set("width", w);

where you increment x in the loop by the width of the drawn buttons, and w is set based on the clicked button.

@JamesC Do you think it was a bug, or user error?

If you can reproduce it in a minimal project and post a snippet, we could look into it further.

@David-Healey Yeah, I don't ever see myself doing that amount of automation. It feels too forced and contrived to me.

I've tried it before with different products (non-music related) and I ended up spending more time endlessly tweaking campaigns than actually making the product better.

My strategy over the last 3 years has been quite sparse:

Products: one launch email with a time-limited discount code, then one reminder email 2-3 days before the code ends.

Marketing: maximum one email per month with a product-specific discount code, only sent to those that don't own the product.

On top of that I've sent out a couple of cross-sell discount codes ("Since you own Product X you might like 20% off Product Y") and a DAW survey.

I do have it on my list to send out a post-purchase email, something like "Hope you enjoy Product X, here's a 20% discount code for your next purchase". It's easy to set up in Gumroad, just haven't got around to it yet. It would be very easy to measure the performance too. That's more like the kind of thing you posted above.

EDIT: just read through this again and I think I'm actually just very lazy!

@David-Healey It's got some nice features like campaigns, webhooks, autoresponders, etc. But like I say, I haven't dug into it yet. I bought the license on a deal, more out of curiosity.

Newsletters is basically just marketing emails under a slightly nicer name.

Autoresponders
Automate your marketing by setting up a series of emails in drip campaigns to automatically follow up with your subscribers at time intervals you set. Or send emails annually or one off emails at a specific date. Keep your subscribers engaged and your brand at the top of their mind.

Rules & Webhooks
Decide what happens when something happens - by creating 'Rules'. For example, setup a rule to get notified by email when a scheduled campaign starts sending, trigger a webhook when an autoresponder is sent, unsubscribe someone from a list when they're signed up to another, and so on.

Custom fields
Create custom fields to store more than just 'name' and 'email'. Not only can you store more information about your subscribers, you can use them for list segmentation or personalization tags in your newsletters for a more personalized experience.

@Lindon I should also clarify that I run ads too. I do £40/day in one campaign with 4 ads, all on Instagram.

I haven't emailed my list since November last year, and the last email before that was August. So the consistent revenue I'm getting now is mostly ad-based rather than mailing list-based.

However, I still swear by the mailing and will be working to build it up more this year.

@Lindon You could also look at Sendy. I bought a license a while ago but not got around to setting it up yet.

It's a one-time $69 fee and you self-host it, so another few dollars a month for a small shared server.

It sends using SES at $1 per 10,000 emails.

https://sendy.co

@Lindon For our level of usage, SES pricing is basically negligible. From their examples, 250,000 emails per month is about $25/mo.

It's only really when you get into sending millions of emails per month, and/or sending very large emails, that price starts to become a factor.

Since I use Gumroad, sending emails to my list is included in their revenue cut. I can essentially send as many emails as I like and pay no more for it than the usual cut.

Having said that, this year I'll be looking to move away from Gumroad to selling direct on my own website, so I'm interested to see how this conversation goes.

@David-Healey Another quirk, at least on Mac, is that CMD+D is assigned to both ScritpNode > Duplicate Node and Interface Designer > Duplicate selection at cursor.

This works fine within HISE because of the different contexts, but if you assign a different shortcut to either action, then try to assign the default back again, it will remove the other one.

So I suppose the issue is that duplicate shortcuts already exist in HSIE, but the user isn't allowed to assign duplicates themselves. Which is a little confusing.

EDIT: probably not worth the time to attend to either

@David-Healey And it fixes the second issue where storing CTRL+D as a shortcut in the XML didn't persist between relaunches - because this is expected HISE behaviour when it meets a default shortcut?

@Lurch All you need is in David's first post in this thread: https://forum.hise.audio/topic/14184/juce-submodule-psa?page=1

@Lurch Do you know JUCE was recently moved to a git submodule? You shouldn't need to drop JUCE in yourself.

The version of JUCE used in HISE is customised by Christoph. If you dropped in the regular JUCE that might be the cause?

@xxx The Projucer file you need to open is in projects > standalone > Builds > HISE Standalone.jucer

After you've opened that once, and saved it to create the Xcode project, you don't need to open it again to rebuild HISE. You can just launch Xcode and open the recent Xcode from there, and build.

The only time I open the Projucer file is to add/remove preprocessors. Which is rarely.

@Christoph-Hart Wait.. does that actually work? I thought we had to do that manually?

We're talking about plugin builds, right - not HISE builds?
