Pardon if this is a doubling of my MSE thread - but how do I convert the float bool from the Playing module to something that can gate a MultiStage Envelope? My design has no voices (osc's or wave players) - it's an effect VST.

Any help appreciated - demo time almost up - won't buy SM unless I can get this to work.

Hi,

Use a compare primitive to convert float to streambool like this: Also be sure to activate the gate function in the envelope properties or inside the gate module.

Thanks for the hint - had to set Gate true in Gate module and used a Stream Greater to compare the Float Bool to False. That much is working. Now to find out how to get the Playing module to work reliably.

If your host has an always playing function, set it to on. It works only in Orion if set so.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
