here is a small idea i requested some years ago (a several Module for tagging that ACTS like the ToolTip Primitive when doing Toolbox Searches). in this example you see a lot of usefull informations can be included, you can Tag your Modules, see whats going on inside, add comments and hints. this can really speed up searching things A LOT. But be carefulll, if you add too much useless / double words to your Tooltip Primitive search will be harder than before 😈 😀

You don't need to do "connection type"; SM's toolbox does that for your already; type "float" in toolbox & see! I usually put version number at end of module name lately, since that is important & I look at alot. Tags is a good idea!

yes i know. the categories are just examples, change it to whatever you like . i personally give my modules nicknames like Mono the Magician , Harris Filltone or Trevis Trigger LOL....ähhmmm, let´s talk serious: of course the toolbox allows filtering the connection types BUT it is NOT possible to find a module that has EXACTLY ((oh man i feel like i´ve eaten 2 clowns with a lot of example salad today....) ):

1Float Input 2 stream inputs 1 stream Output and 1 MIDI output 1 Wireless Receiver AND 1 wireless Out

example :when searching "All Modules that have wireless float Receivers inside "or something like that you are lost with the SM toolbox. i remember MyCo started creating a nice standalone app some years ago [old link] where you can organize/view/delete synthmaker *.HOM files and related informations.... MyCo where are you 😝 don´t you want to finish this little jewel? 😕 😉

Tags is a good idea!

requested almost EXACTLY 1 year ago hehe Primitive for "tagging" modules

Before your first post

A few rules keep this a friendly place. You agree to them once.

Shown next to what you post, here and in the app. It doesn’t have to be your real name: 3–24 lower-case letters, digits or _ (capitals become lower case, spaces become _).

    Then your post goes up straight away.

    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.
