@WepaAudio Sure, give me a little time. I'm not sure I fully understand your problem. Just so you know, multi-output only works properly after compiling your instrument to VST3/AUi/whatever. It will not work in the standalone or plugin version of HISE.

You can also select lblSearch and enable "updateEachKey" for a search that doesn't require you to hit enter after typing. ;)

@ulrik That's an interesting solution! I came up with something a little different. Any XY cursor and pad shape I use is likely going to be symmetrical, so I have the XY cursor area bounds set to a smaller version of the XY pad shape. When the mouse cursor moves outside of the XY pad bounds, the XY cursor locks to the smaller XY pad shape path. Not perfect for all shapes, but maybe close enough for my needs.

That's probably difficult to read. lol. Snippet below.

@skyscapeparadise
Yes - the documentation is not amazing. (Sorry to people who worked on it.) Coming from a platform like Native Instruments Kontakt, their KSP guide includes examples and use cases that are decently commented. At least they tell you possible values for function arguments.

So my encouragement is to USE THE FORUM!

@Lindon Sure, I can do that, but it doesn't address the points in my original post about script working for arbitrary path shapes or the quick mouse movements. :face_savoring_food:

If it has to be done with trig, so be it!

Is there an easy way to detect if two paths intersect? I want to make a circular XY pad, but I want the outer perimeter of the draggable XY cursor (tiny circle) to stop at the pad's boundaries (larger circle). Ideally, the script would work for arbitrary path shapes.

I can check if the pad's boundaries contains my mouse cursor position while clicking or dragging, but that does not account for the shape of the draggable XY cursor. It also leads to a case where the draggable XY cursor stops in an odd position if I drag my mouse quickly outside of the pad's boundaries.

See the snippet for what I've done so far.

@d-healey Hmm this might work for monospace fonts, but I get different results based on getting the string width of a space or any character. I don't see why the kerning adds a space at the end of a string. I don't think this is common.

Maybe Christoph can provide some insight? @Christoph-Hart

Might anyone know how to calculate that extra bit of kerning so I can account for it?

I see the source of my confusion.
Using g.setFontWithSpacing(font, size, spacing); results in a length of spacing at the end of the string.

For example, if I write
g.getStringWidth("TEXT");
I expect TEXT's width and spacing (shown with underscores) to be calculated as T_E_X_T.
Instead, it is calculated as T_E_X_T_.

So using
g.drawAlignedText("TEXT", [0, 0, this.getWidth(), this.getHeight()], "centred"); doesn't actually center the text due to that kerning offset.

@d-healey Oops. You are right. Something else must be wrong in my code. Thanks!
I'm off to debug. :)

@d-healey Are you suggesting to keep using that, or asking for clarification? I am using g.getStringWidth("TEXT"); after setting the font using g.setFontWithSpacing(). The value of g.getStringWidth stays the same as if the spacing was set to 0.

@d-healey Excellent! Now if I want to get the width of that text, getStringWidth doesn't work anymore. Is there an alternative for that?

Hi all,

Is there control over the space between each character when using drawText in a paint routine?

Thanks!

I don't know if this is a workaround or if this is actually the way to do it.

The Sampler1 routing matrix was changed to like the image from post 1, except without the blue lines indicating sends.

I created a Send Container (to people who don't know, this works as a receive for any audio you send to it. That took me a little while to understand).

Then I added 5 send effects to my sampler, sent them all to Send Container1 (set to channel 0 inside each effect), changed each send effect channel routing to cover all 5 stereo pairs, and set their gains to 0dB.

The send container goes out plugin channels 1+2, and the remaining outputs have the individual drum mics routed to them from the Sampler1 routing matrix.

Hi all,

I have a snare drum with 10 mic channels.
I'm exporting a plugin with 12 outputs.
I want a mix of all 10 mic channels to go to output 1+2, and I want the individual mics to go to their own separate channels from plugin outs 3-12.

I figured I could do this using sends, but I'm not getting any signal out of channels 1 and 2 in Reaper. The other channels work properly though.

Any ideas? Thanks!

@d-healey Never mind. Something went wrong when I compiled HISE. I suspected it was a permissions issue since HISE normally asks for permission to access folders on my desktop on first startup, but this version did not.

I deleted HISE, recompiled a fresh version from github, and now everything works as expected.

@ericchesek bump :)

Hi all,

I made a project in standalone HISE 3.6.2 which I compiled with 32 outputs in release mode.
Then I compiled a new HISE (same version) to have 42 outputs.
My .HIP project loads, but the sample maps don't show up in any of my samplers. The stereo audio output doesn't seem to work either if I reimport the sample map XMLs. I can click on a sample rectangle, and the file appears to be a silent wav in the sample preview player. It is still pointing to the correct directory where the samples are stored though.

Any ideas why this might be happening?

@Christoph-Hart

True! I hope that is all I have to worry about.

When I open the sampler, I see the green bars showing up at various velocities as I play notes on my keyboard. They never go away. The instrument sounds right though. These green bars are the stuck midi notes I'm referring to. If those are not a problem, then that is wonderful. Haha
