I made a wavetable based oscillator, in similar manner like the basic oscillators (sinus, triangle, and so on) are in SM, plus manual reset to default shape.

Now one thing I'd like to add is related to presets and preset manager. How to make it remember - last filename (relative path) to load? I don't want to remember the content of the shapefile, only the file that should be loaded. But don't know where to connect or how to modify that little preset fellow that I borrowed from SM slider.

I think this is what you are after...

...you have to use a 'Preset String' primitive instead of the standard float one - here are a couple of other bits in there that make sure that the file gets loaded at the appropriate time.

Thanks, starting to check.

You can use this: http://www.thecorestylerz.net/tools/syn ... layer.html

It use relative paths. (ex. Documents)

Is ready for waves, but you can change it quickly to load wavetables. To make a default, you can save a file into Doucments and settings with the filename. With a "find" primitive you can get the index of the file into the folder. Then switch, sample and hold, this index when is default. (default saved last time).

@CoreStyler - I have some difficulties with the website provided. Could you post a direct download link or send it to PM? Thanks!

CoreStyler ·

Thanks!

Mostly - the website did not loaded (server connection reset after a longer while). Plus - I did not understood what the antispam machine wanted from me when I tried, so I could not register in order to download.

Tanks for the feedback... They captcha requires to assembly an image instead writing text. The server could be slow because is a shared server here in italy. I will move the site soon to a better place. 😉

    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.
