Is it possible to make an automatable vst parameter with a fixed number of possible values? eg. 2 values for mute (off and on), or 128 different values for level? I'm looking at the VST Parameter module and I can't see how to do this.

AFAIK all VST parameters are floating point numbers - if you want to limit their range to integers, between 1 and 4 for example, you'll need to do a little maths with the float in your schematic. There may be a way to have your parameters saved directly as integers or strings etc using 'chunks' but AFAIK SM doesn't use chunks.

    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.
