@MikeB -- Lindon, Hull UK, Audio Developer, before that I worked in Telecommunications (real time and all that - not as complicated as it sounds) and before that I was a record producer....before that I was a starving/failing musician.

So for those of us who have spent the required hard-yards in the sampling business we have a very specific idea of what "legato" means, and frankly this aint what "modern" synths behave like. Stiil we are often asked to recreate this "synth-based" glide portamento legato, what th ***k else you want to call it...thing. And in my experience its a royal PITA to do....

Essentially notes glide between any currently held note on play or release as long as something is held down...and if a truck load of notes are held then they glide in played order....(where truck load == 2+)

HISE is not best set up for this sort of thing - or so I thought.

So after about 6 goes at this and also after the realisation that I really really need a holiday. I think I have it (or a close approximation of it). As I wouldn't want anyone else to have to go through the outrageous process I went thru to get here I decided to release it. So here it is - again MIT licensed so all yours to use...

Frankly I never want to have to do this again......so please dont ask for amendments, you will have to make them yourself, and if you find a bug - again you will have to fix it yourself - please post your resulting code here.

Meanwhile I'm off to Italy see you in a month, well from next week anyway...

@Lindon ....

Feature Request
@Christoph-Hart - Please can we have bus effects (send and receive) as per this discussion :

https://forum.hise.audio/topic/1983/feature-request-the-case-for-bus-containers

-- wow I just re-read the thread I pointed to - I've been a pita about this .....sorry.

So happy holidays to everyone who has them at this time of year.. Anther great year for HISE and this community, tho I did get too many t-shirts this year...

Feature Request

MIDI out.

......Ok that's me done for 2023, so wishing you and yours a safe and festive holiday season and a prosperous, healthy and happy 2024...

Thanks to all of you for making it a great community..... now where did I put that T-Shirt?

So I've seen a few posts here asking how to "do" an LED-style control, and there's been a few answers - all of which seemed to require adding in a png for the LED itself.

So as I needed (or wanted) one of these that used vector drawing, and one that had some level of "red-line" warning as well as momentary peak measurement too I coded one up. You might want to use it - or adapt it to your needs.

So caveat no.1 : as @ustk has said elsewhere - this is not really a gain meter - its approximates one as it uses 100 milliseconds between each measure - so it may miss some peaks. But in any case:

I'm pretty sure the code could do with re-factoring so I'm always interested in a better version if you want to comment or contribute...

@rzrsharpeprod said in Expansions preset tagging:

@Lindon so that means it is possible to have the preset browser affected (in this case filtered) to show just the presets I want based on the click actions of a separate panel (containing my tags)?

I've no idea how to begin with that as I don't know what calls can affect the preset browser and can't seem to find anything from poking around here. As I says I wasn't even sure it was possible at all tbh

No, this ahs nothing to do with the default preset browser -..... you have a list of all presets, and some piece of JSON with each preset listed with its assigned tags right? so read thru the JSON getting each tag uniquely, now you have a non duplicate list of tags, draw them using a paint routine in a panel......

@ustk said in Expansions preset tagging:

@Lindon Couldn't the object described here be able to hold the tags (aka any custom things per preset) instead of relying on external JSON?

https://docs.hise.dev/scripting/scripting-api/userpresethandler/index.html#setusecustomuserpresetmodel

yes it could, I just find it a royal pita to use so I built my own - where you apply persistence is a bit arbitrary really.

@rzrsharpeprod said in Expansions preset tagging:

So my next hurdle is now can I/is it even possible to filter the preset browser to show just the presets that have that particular tag?

Looks like you are more than half way to building your own custom tag-based preset browser....now all you need is a way to render the filtered list of presets, and the total list of tags..

Here's a clue:

as title.

@It_Used yeah that would work I think.... ch10 ? - Grief how big is a single sample map ?

@It_Used said in How to control loaded samples with preset.:

Still, I was able to figure out how to search for files, but one thing is still not clear to me, I can't use my wildcard variables that could change, I have to search for all files, I can't make it so that only *.ch files are searched.

dont you need to search for .ch1 files? not .ch files...

fFiles = FileSystem.findFiles(samplesPath, "*.ch1", false);

@Straticah yep very cool, well done, and good luck.

@DanH said in Preset Browser - List item background:

@ustk ok back on this again

What would be a crafty way of adding multiple 'tags'?

So the preset name could be something like BA_LD_PRESETNAME to indicate that it's a bass as well as a lead sound.

Maybe some kind of divider is needed...

Really I watch this sort of discussion a lot here, that can be characterised as "how to bend the preset browser to my will". My experience is that its nearly trivial ( a few days at most) to write your own custom preset browser...

I think thats the essential problem here... there are already players in the space, and even then, none of it looks exciting...solving the " manage the entire backend of the business" issue, isnt really an issue...."the entire backend of the business" can get resolved in several different ways, but all of it in a few months at most, whilst the biggest problems: piracy, sales and distribution are all open ended difficult to solve issues...

..if I was going to "do this", I'd start by asking:

What would be a meaningful distribution platform/brand/site and how would it be organised so a bunch of developers could on-board, sell product and get a fair shake of the "front page" stick...??
