pattr not capturing vst~ state in 9.0.5?
Hello all,
I'm sharing this issue to make sure I'm not the only one facing it. When using pattr and pattrstorage, I can't save a vst~ state anymore. This is a new issue from 9.0.5 for me, 9.0.4 works fine. It seems to be a problem with snapshots as well but since I'm not using them, I have not made extensive tests.
I'm in Windows 11.
To reproduce:
Use the attached patcher
Drag and drop a
vst~- I've tried with Soundtoys Echoboy (where some parameters aren't exposed to automation and therefore can only be saved with the pattr/snapshot approach), and Valhalla Supermassive.Store/retrieve the 2 presets - In 9.0.5, the object appears in the pattrstorage but the data field remains empty.
Important: it has to be a vst~, the amxd~ still work.
I'd like to know if others face the same issue before issuing a bug report.
Thanks!
it's a known issue that'll be fixed in the next release
As far as I could find, neither Google or the forums know about it... And kind of a big deal :/ Would have saved me a couple of days of debugging before my next gig!
Anyhow, thanks for the reply 👍
yeah, I lost a day to it too & reported it.. shoulda made a forum post too and saved you some time, sorry 😬
😕 No worries, I was actually complaining about the fact that the dev team let this through and didn't think it useful to mention it to the users. You did your job by reporting it to the relevant people.
Meanwhile, until the next release, I've reverted to 9.0.4 and pattr seems to work fine with VSTs.
