whats not working? Is it just not re-drawing maybe? I connected the output of the "preset" module to the "redraw now" trigger on the "RedrawA" module in my plugs, which seems to work ok..

the actual parameter automation doesn't work..... then the redraw too doesn't work... even if the 'Before Change" and "After Change" outlet of DragY are linked to the Redraw trigger inlet.... and the "F" output of the Preset module is linked to the 'Set' inlet of the DragY....
maybe some bug in DragY ?

Hi lalo,
I'll try and have a look for you, might not be until tomorrow as I'm a bit tight for time today.

Not sure if this is any help, but you could check the 'SimpleSynth' example I posted, all params are automatable (and I tested in EnergyXT - it worked fine.)

The problem is in the slider itself. It's our fault lalo, we didn't hook thing s up right 😊
Basically the problem is down to the fact that the DragY is giving values between 0 and 7 but presets must be between 0 and 1. There are also some redraw issues.
Try the modifications I made below: [old link]

yes..there are still some redraw issue...plus...
7 is the value of the slider position at its minimum...so the automation is inverted 🙂
and the cpu is very high ..i suspect is all about redraw issues....
we have to solve this thing...
would be useful to investigate how the VST SDK works in the relationship between the GUI and the sound process in the automation field?
probably the slider redraw too many times...probably we only need it to redraw...25 times in a second (frame rate in a typical video)...
maybe a kind of 'sample and hold' of 1/25 seconds between the preset's F output and the redraw trigger inlet?
let's work on this important issue 🙂

Maybe make it so theres a Min and Max on the automation modules so you can set whatever is needed for automation.
