Looking at the example synth, it seems that the whole patch management is hardwired into the schematic. How can I enter patch names? I'm assuming that patch managment not done yet? When using the compiled S_FM3x VST I also couldn't save and load patches using the VST-host's patch system.

I think a simple patch management would be ok. I'm thinking of a simple filesystem browser for *.fxp files. Also the possibility of synchronizing patch names with the VST hosts would be great.

Are there GUI elements for editing/displaying strings, numbers on the GUI surface?

What do you think about "drawable" elements for envelopes, LFO shapes, additive bins,...

Its done but not released yet. If you dont want to wait until the next release, we can send you an internal version with patch management.

You can already display strings. The control for editing strings in the front panel is already done too, just a question of releasing it.

I think its a good idea, we have already done a drawbar high-level module that stefan is using in his synth, should be available in the next release but once again we can send you our latest internal version.

Luckily enough, you seem to be asking for the features/components that we have already done lately.

Keep your comments coming please.

    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.
