    • RE: Notarisation help please!

      It was that certificate that needed the permission change that was the block.

      Honestly thank you so much to all of youf or your help I'm going to put together a post later this week step by step on what I had to do to get it working just incase anyone does face the same issues and at least then it summarised in one central location

    • RE: Odd complied behavior of VST3 in DAW

      @dannytaurus so just to update on this it was clearly a UI issue as all sound function were working, so after going through part by part it is filter displays that trigger this behavior for me when using more than 1 sampler in a project at this time.

    • RE: Sampler randomly triggering help!

      @iamlamprey I unplugged all midi devices and then plugged them back in and haven't seen any issue since so bit odd but solved thanks for the help!

    • RE: Automated exporter script for MacOS Help

      @DanH cheers for that the AI heavily judged me for not quite having the correct type of certificate and I was able so far to successfully sign the things!

      @d-healey thanks for your advice of doing it manually first so everythigns in place solid as always!

      @JamesC @d-healey as predicted I missed a step, thanks so much for the videos that you have put out there, should have started with them!

    • XY Pad with Optional Motion + Speed Control (HISE Script)

      Hey everyone,

      After my question yesterday I wanted to share a the script I’ve been working on. Would love to hear thoughts on updates as to whether this is the most sensible approach. Particular mention should go to @David-Healey whose original XY Pad videos sent me down the rabbit whole with this and did a lot of the heavy lifting!

      Overall it’s an XY Pad that supports:

      • Manual user control via mouse or XY knobs
      • Optional motion driven by a simple sine-wave “LFO”
      • Adjustable motion speed
      • Fully modular and easy to extend

      The idea is that you can move the XY pad automatically, but still allow the user to take manual control at any time.

      Features

      • btnMotion: toggle automatic motion on/off
      • knbMotionSpeed: adjust the speed of the motion
      • Motion is applied as a small offset on top of the manual X/Y position
      • Gains are mapped from the XY pad to two gain modules, with scaling

      How it works

      • baseX/baseY store the manual (user) position
      • lfoX/lfoY store motion offsets generated by the LFO
      • updateXY() combines base + motion values and clamps them 0–1
      • LFO speed is multiplied by motionSpeed for easy adjustment

    • RE: XY Pad Gain Scaling...

      @JamesC So for those interested this is how I solved it in the end with a bit of AI help:

      inline function onxypadControl(component, value)
      {
      	local x = component.data.x;
      	local y = component.data.y;
      	
      	local gainX = -40 + (60 * x);
      	local gainY = -40 + (60 * (1 - y));
      	
      	gains1[0].setAttribute(gains1[0].GainValue, gainX);
      	gains1[1].setAttribute(gains1[1].GainValue, gainY);
      	
      	gains2[0].setAttribute(gains2[0].GainValue, gainX);
      	gains2[1].setAttribute(gains2[1].GainValue, gainY);
      	
      	knbxy[0].setValue(x);
      	knbxy[1].setValue(y);
      	
      	component.repaint();
      	
      }
