first experiments with polyphony

[woodslanding]

It's great fun!

This post isn't really about the polyphony, though. I had the idea I would like to have a bank of 8 faders that could affect parameters on a selected track. I wanted the faders to update to show the parameters of the vst on the selected track, as well as change color to indicate which track they affect. I've got that working, with 2 tracks, 2 parameters per track and 2 faders. If I can get it to work, maybe it would be a helpful addon. Here's my preliminary wkp:

There are a couple of probs with this setup tho.

First:
The patch select combos are not being saved with conductor. I can't see what I could be doing wrong.... ????

Second:
When the patch is first opened, the values flicker between colors and tracks. This will be a real problem with 16 tracks! I turned off 'stored with conductor' on this module Iit didn't help) but I'd want to store this setting with a patch. Maybe I just need to put a wait1 after

Third:
The parameter changes made with these controls do not 'stick' when stored to the conductor. You can see my presets fail the test of showing what they are supposed to with the positions of the green and blue faders.... Do I need to store all the parameters in an array, in order for these kinds of changes to be saved? How do I do that?

Finally:
I've got a lot of wait1's in here.... maybe I don't need so many. It's a little hard to figure where they need to go!

Thanks in advance for any tips!

i confirm there's maybe a bug with the combo box ( when visible in IB) and conductor when you save and reload a workspace
now, I'm gone to try to understand your patch for others questions..:/

ok, i've simplify
in fact i've delete the hide and disable sub-patch, just add 1 wait 1 block
waiting for an other solution I've replace the combo by a fader
all seems ok..

Thanks so much!

I'll have a look at this and see what you did....

That definitely works, and much cleaner! No more pulsation on startup!

The remaining problem is to save the parameter changes I make with these sliders into the conductor preset. That way, with sounds that I'm in the habit of tweaking a lot, they can get saved with the right tweaks in different conductor presets. I tried wiring in an array to the parameters in and out (with OIC modules) and that didn't seem to work. Is there an addon to do this? Or is it trivial, and just something simple I'm missing?

I'll read up on arrays....

thanks as always!
