Check the MacroHandler Class https://docs.hise.audio/scripting/scripting-api/macrohandler/index.html

I think it would also require changing the plugin code - at least on Mac os

@paper_lung
Yeah I had this as well. I sort of assumed the cold was out of date, so I ended up rewriting my own version. I needed additional functionality anyway, because I needed to display a start/end range as well as a loop range, all at once.

@paper_lung Search the forum for custom preset browser examples, there is at least one that uses viewports. That will be a good place to start, once you have that working you can swap out presets for audio files.

Nobody forces you to use the range defined by the knob in the module editor.

@d-healey Haha, well that was easy. I just didn't change it enough to see the change, thanks!

@paper_lung said in Play audio file in fx plugin?:

@Orvillain Thanks, is it as simple as switching the gate on inside the module and leaving it? Totally new to scriptnode.

There's a playback mode knob and if you set it to midi, it will act like a synthesizer. I'm assuming this is because you want to test out a DSP network that you're intending to build? You could also just add a regular old Audio Loop Player to your module tree, and build your FX network on top of that, and then move the network to where it needs to be later on.

Awesome, thanks @Lindon, I'll take a look at that!

@paper_lung In addition to @d-healey's example,. if I'm understanding you correctly, you could simply have an if/then that read the FX parameter, and set the new value based on the current value.

@paper_lung said in Streaming mode:

Anyone know what this actually does? It's in the floating tile - settings. There's 2 options - Slow - HDD and Fast - SSD but not sure what does does behind the scenes? Can't find anything inside the docs.

its sets the pre-load amount so for disk streaming it accounts(partly) for the speed of your disk.

@paper_lung I reckon this is fine personally, I do it for my Lite and Demo versions. Never had an issue.

@paper_lung Sounds like it. You can also test it. If you click on the keyboard icon in the top right corner, you'll see the realtime voice count. So play it, do some brute force testing for edge cases and find a comfortable number.

It does not need to be a multitude of 8.

I think it would be covered by the alert windows LAF, but I haven't tested it - https://docs.hise.audio/glossary/custom_lookandfeel.html#alert-windows

@d-healey Thanks, didn't think of looking in the MIDI scripts!

@paper_lung you can do this in the source code I think. Search for the strings and comment out those bits.

I think this was related to changing presets too quickly. I've added a 'loading' panel which prevents this, so rather than cycling through multiple presets quickly, it's essentially forcing the loading of presets one at a time.

@paper_lung said in Animate panel via MIDI?:

Hi all, does anyone know how to animate a paint routine via MIDI? I want to display an animated panel which shows when notes are triggered in the MIDI processor for one of my modules in the module tree. I've got a few working with LFO's using getCurrentLevel, but unsure if this is possible with MIDI?

set up your panel to repaint based on some variable, set the variable in the note on...

Ah, fixed it - for anyone curious, I just removed any strings from the setFrontendMacros array and they no longer show

Engine.setFrontendMacros([]);

@paper_lung No you only copy the file to the AudioFiles Folder it does not automatically overwrites the file in the AudioLoopPlayer. You could change the file in the loop player manually or on PresetLoad load the correct one from the AudioFiles Folder.

@paper_lung Yep that's the one :)
