@Christoph-Hart We only need MIDI , no audio , so can it be done via the MIDI fx plugin ?

What we need is to send a sysex stream for settings , LFO as CC and MIDI note as trigger.

Maybe @jonhallur can chime in here as he is the one doing the programming and has got the Standalone working.

@d-healey Sorry I made a shortcut to quickly...

It makes no difference unless you've made manual changes to the batch file and you don't want HISE to overwrite them.

@Eskano Of course, just add a button into the panel, and in the button callback, just use Panel.showControl(false);

Well, if you look at the code, you can see that the panel is showing after 3 sec, then the timer stops in its own callback, hence will not popup again if you close it. (unless you tell him to do so in the close button callback...)
By instance, do you mean plugin or panel instance?
The panel will show again after 3 sec when you relaunch the plugin. If you want it to appear only once when you launch the plugin for the first time and not after that, you'll need to store a flag in an external file using dumpAsJSON/loadFromJSON.

@TNTHM For this, you need to combine what I explained above with: https://forum.hise.audio/topic/1204/simple-copy-protection-done-right

Can you legally release vst2 plugins for free without a license from Steinberg?

I'm not 100% sure of the rules. Christoph has a license for VST2 so I think you're okay as long as you're not redistributing the SDK but I could be wrong.

If you're making a non-proprietary plugin then there is also the option of using the GNU GPL licensed alternative - https://git.iem.at/zmoelnig/FST

I think the answer is "no". You will need to enter a company code in your plug-in setting/preferences in HISE - this is the code issued to you by Steinberg when you got your VST2 license.

VST2 does not have any sort of open source license, it's entirely proprietary, to issue (sell, give away, distribute) a VST2 plugin you need a license from Steinberg - or that was how I read the license agreement when I got it, but as I say it was a while ago now.

Could you make 2 versions of the plugin? Like plugin(aux) and plugin(insert)
Or maybe just make a button on the interface to set the functionality

@Eskano I don't think so. You'd need to write some custom C++ which you might as well do directly in JUCE.

I create all my graphics with Blender.

@Natanr No idea

@ustk Ahhh! It's starting to make sense now. Thanks mate. I'll try a few things and see how it goes :) Much appreciated!

@Eskano Bear in mind that they only appear if you're controlling the slider with the mouse though. If you are using a MIDI controller they won't pop up. It only seems to work when moving them with the mouse.

@Christoph-Hart Thank you very much. I am a music composer and enjoy using different daws programs to create my own crazy plugins.

Yes you can use the precompiled binary, but you need to compile the plugin anyway using the same setup you would use to compile HISE so it doesn't really matter.
