automatic connection suggestion

[borgmekanik]

Dear All,


when i click from an exitisting port USINE creates some suggestions where i can select sth.

i.e. on the midi in port of a VSTi USINE suggest piano roll, random, step etc.

Is it possible to edit these suggesions ? Imagine i have build a sequencer patch and
i would like this patch to be suggested on every midi in port, so that i don have to manually
seek + connect these items, instead or additionally to the default suggestions.

Is this possible ?

yes, it's possible ( but you don't begin by the simplest things in Usine.. )
it's called templates and you'll find some instructions about it here in the manual:

http://www.sensomusic.com/wiki/doku.php ... ]=template

quickly, it's a text file you add in the templates dir of Usine/files/templates who give the name and the way you want link this sub-patch

here an example template where i add the possibility to link a sub patch name VstMorph.pat

Code: Select all

Vst Morph
*   // file name ext ('wav', 'usr', etc...)
-1   // none=0,in=1,out=2,
3   // term flowtype (ftNone=0,ftPCM=1,ftInternText=2,ftData=3,ftMIDI=4,ftArray=5,ftUser=6,ftEvtText=7,ftPointer=8,ftIntern=9,ftOther=maxInt)
6 // term display flow type (dftText=0,dftgain=1,dftDir=2,dftSwitch=3,dftButton=4,dFtInt=5,dftFloat=6,dftColor=7,dftListBox=8,dftArray=9,dftIpAddress=10,dftSmpte=11,dftFileName=12,dftMidiNote=13)
*   // termainal name can be '*' or "any string"
0  // on wire
7  // vst

SET_TARGET_PATCH SENDER_PATCH
CREATE_MODULE vstmorph 6 MOUSE_X MOUSE_Y "VstMorph.pat"
CREATE_LINK vstmorph "out" SRC_MODULE SRC_TERM_NUM
SET_STRING_VALUE vstmorph caption SRC_TERM_NAME
RENAME_MODULE vstmorph SRC_TERM_NAME

you can also read the default templates files to study them...

thanks.

OK, this looks like i have some learning to do...

Just bought the pro version, so now i will have to spend some time diving through the
hidden gems. Expect a lot of stoopid questions then..

no problems

here an other example for what you're looking for :
_your patch is named here mystep.pat
_this patch is in your personal library ( you 've add the path in the global setup/interface /patch library )
_this patch as an outlet named midi out
_copy paste this code in a text file and name it something like midiIn07-mystep.txt
_put this text file in your files/template dir
_restart Usine,
_now,you'll see this template added in the menu from the midi in of a vsti

Code: Select all

mystep
*   // file name ext ('wav', 'usr', etc...can be '*')
1   // none=0,in=1,out=2
4   // term flowtype (ftNone=0,ftPCM=1,ftInternText=2,ftData=3,ftMIDI=4,ftArray=5,ftUser=6,ftEvtText=7,ftPointer=8,ftIntern=9,ftOther=maxInt)
3   // term display flow type (dftText=0,dftgain=1,dftDir=2,dftSwitch=3,dftButton=4,dFtInt=5,dftFloat=6,dftColor=7,dftListBox=8,dftArray=9,dftIpAddress=10,dftSmpte=11,dftFileName=12,dftMidiNote=13)
*   // termainal name can be '*' or "any string"

SET_TARGET_PATCH SENDER_PATCH
CREATE_MODULE mystep 6 MOUSE_X MOUSE_Y "mystep.pat"
CREATE_LINK mystep "midi out" SRC_MODULE SRC_TERM_NUM
RENAME_MODULE mystep

wow.

something to try out now.

this opens a lot of possibilities and make patchbuilding much easier.

thank you for your help.
