I really like that new inline view for the vst~ object in Max7.

Is there a way to save/recall several different snapshots? Or is there a way to include that vst~ in a pattrstorage and recall different slots?

Hello,
I really like that new inline view for the vst~ object in Max7.
The snapshot function is also great.

was looking fo rthe same answer, have you find a solution in the meantime?

nope, I haven't really investigated this, especially since I've read threads like these:

this is no good news at all, I was hoping to find Max able to manage some serious real time processing.

I understand this weakness might be one of the reasons why there's such a poor literature about vst chains in Max.

It is clearly not one of the developing team's focus, but I can't help to find this quite surprising though.

ouch!

yeah I know, I'm sure you'll find more info about this by digging in this forum and in the beap library

the weird thing is I've been using vst~ in Max for years, along with pattrstorage and never had any issue...

Hi, I came up with this combination of vst~ , multislider and pattrstorage to save vst presets within pattrstorage presets. I like it because I don't have to manage multiple fxp files and I can interpolate between vst presets. Maybe it will help some of you.

yay! thanks for sharing!! never thought about using multislider to save a vst's data

one limit I just discovered seems to be that some adjustments on some vst plugins don't necessarily output anything from 4th outlet. In this case you will still need usual vst presets (fxp or manufacturer's formats).

I've noticed that most of the built-in presets inside a vst usually don't output from the fourth outlet.

You could have an update mechanism though: uzi n> get $1 > vst~ where n is the number of parameters

I think there is, the [route -4] sizes the multislider and tells [uzi] how many it should bang. all this comes from (get -4) earlier.

Oh yeah you already have this in your patch sorry.

So basically just send a get -4 right before saving the pattrstorage, this updates the values that haven't been output.

Works great for me.


vst inline view = snapshots or pattrstorage?
