lookin at the moog filter example it looks like you are initialising floats on lines one through seven but earlier in the guide it says that init commands arent supported yet. am i missing something. im no big coder or anything im a newb at it although i did leearn a few minor things.

i've also read in a forum topic that init isnt supported yet.. sorry ive made alot of posts. but im excited i saw the news of this at kvr i hear of this one time months ago maybe longer but i never really rember. i feel like im gonna learn alot here though.

With the high level code component you can declare variables but not initialise them at the same time.

float var; // this declaration is possible float var=1.234; // this initialisation is not yet supported

If you type:

float var; var=1.234;

you'll get a var that is initialised to 0.0 and set to 1.234 each time the code runs ( for each sample ) which would make it a constant. Initialisation migh be required for certains algorithms and it is easy to implement, will probably be availabe in one of the next releases. I forgot to say before: welcome to our forum, I hope you'll learn a lot with it and with SM too.

Hi laserbeak43,

The more posts the better as far as I'm concerned. It's a great way for us to see what we've got right and wrong and where we can make improvements.
