Personally i see it as an add on to JUCE, so follow the licence scheme, flat fee £500 for indies £1000 for companies (Multi seat) if i remember correctly.
Charge again for V2, just make sure it has valid wanted features, same for v3 and so on.

I understand completely that Chris needs to get paid, and that is of course only fair, however, the margin between getting paid and this disappearing and being just a hobby project is very slim, maybe Chris has not been on the scene and seen all of these kinds of developments appear and then just fade away because the sales that were expected never happened and the developer lost interest.
Having a huge fanatical user base that contributes tutorials/scripts/code/UIs and so on, will make HISE a valuable commodity, however, if you charge the ground roots user out of this (Which is what is proposed) you can forget those contributions, because
1 it will be mainly companies and why would they share (They never do)
2 Even if it was some indie developer, they have paid a lot for one app, why should they share their knowledge.
And lets be clear here, there is zero community right now around HISE, pretty much just you and the developer, that really is not good, considering how much of an impact it could have had.

At the prices suggested it is in to mid level territory, you are asking companies who are actually full time to rely on your backend, Kontakt is proven time and time again, so that is the platform these companies are going to go for, there is little to no doubt about that, I work with quite a few, and can tell, you, they have zero interest in moving away from Kontakt right now, their skillset is in Kontakt, their sales are in Kontakt. they trust Kontakt and for something else to even register on their radar, it needs to have been around for a long time and be offering something special.

@d-healey
VST, not VSTi, we have a VSTi, not a VST.
VSTi = Instrument.
VST = Effect.
To develop effects you need an environment that will work as intended, the VSTi that we have now, has no audio inputs, so the only way to test any effect designs (VST) is to load a sampler and use audio from that, we need a compile as VST (Audio inputs and outputs) added to what we have now, VSTi.

VST 2 supports inputs on VSTi, in fact the only thing it offers that was not achieved in VST 2 is its ability to create channels for chains, everything else was already done in 2 with extensions by various developers.

Having said all that, VST 3 had major issues with presets according to a lot of developers and took a long time to mature in to an acceptable plugin format, it is only just now becoming a viable alternative, 20 year old tech in this case means matured to the point of ultimate reliability.

OK, going in circles, just wait till i do a screen recording to show it ;)

Ok i think i see why this has gotten messy, you are talking about a Mid/Side recording, so Mid is on one channel and Side is on the other, I am talking about having the ability in an effect plugin to effect only the mids or only the sides from a normal stereo signal.

I think @orange wants what i am suggesting, Mid/Side separation for a standard stereo signal.

@orange not right now, im away from home mobile, after the weekend i can try, but i dont know HISE that well right now, but i will give it the good old try ;)

Just double checked this in Reaper and it created Mid Side perfectly, so must be some issue with the way HISE is summing them or something ?

Take your stereo path, pan both left and right channels to centre so that it becomes mono, this is your mid path, take the mid path and invert its polarity (Phase, been a while since i did any code at all, think it is signal * -1) and sum it with the original left and right channels and this will cancel out the mids and leave only the side path ;)
Now you have a mid path and a side path.

@d-healey
I'm a complete newb with the compiling side of things, but it would be interesting if we could get a VST going for sure, Making some basic effects would be a great way to learn construction in HISE i think.

@Christoph-Hart
Well yeah, KVR has a lot of users, and i would suggest with attitudes like the above, not to post there, eaten alive springs to mind hahaha.
@Jay
All i did was ask if it was mandatory, its not, that's cool, also very cool that you will, personally I will not overtly mention HISE, I think it is disrespectful to HISE (My opinion, not trying to tell anybody else what to do) I intend to push HISE through promotion of HISE itself ;)

The website needs updating then, @Christoph-Hart if you need a hand with the website, I have no problems at all updating it for you gratis, obviously we all prefer you to be knees deep in HISE rather than web work, but the site should be up to date and possibly even have a bit of blog with incremental updates.

@orange frames have to be odd numbered, so 71 or 129, or is it counting from frame 0 or something ?

@Christoph-Hart thats great stuff :)

Can i ask about unprotected samples too ?
I really would like to avoid a custom format and prefer to have the samples as wav on the hard drive, I know most people want protection for their content, however i am of the other ilk, I refuse to punish the paying customer, so i wish the samples to be wav in case they wish to use them on the timeline or in Kontakt as well as the standalone, yes i know i'm rare, but i make music myself and have often pulled samples direct myself in to Maschine or so on.
I am not sure that would be possible in IOS though ?

JUCE Announces Acquisition by PACE Anti Piracy - JUCE

This acquisition provides JUCE the opportunity to grow further within an entirely developer-focused company, to execute on an ambitious roadmap and continue to serve the needs of the audio developer community.

JUCE (juce.com)

Have to see how this one plays out, but i would expect some changes to JUCE licencing.

This definitely needs theming options moving forward, UI sizing options are going to become more common as screen sizes and resolutions get ridiculous.

Will get this installed in the coming weeks and start trying to learn it, any info on licence pricing yet ?

I am new to this snippet stuff, I have loaded a few, but this doesnt seem to load anything ?

haven't watched these yet, but wanted to say thank you for this effort, i am holding out to watch them all in on go a 100 times when you get to UIs and compiling plugins and so on.
very much appreciated :)
