hey, im new to synthmaker and having a small problem thats starting to become a big pain. I have made a multi effects unit with tabs to select between different effects. the tabs select what appears on the screen and also which effect is active so there are no dropdown menus involved. however when trying to save presets it wont save what tab is selected. all the switches and knobs save in the right position but it wont switch back to the tab that was selected when i saved the preset. dus anyone have any solutions or .osm i could have a look at to solve my problem? cheers, matt

Hi,

give us the Tabs.OSM so we can add a preset 4U...

Or steal one out of a Modul and try it yourself!

inside your "tabs" module, just after the mouseleftdown module, put a vstparam there, just like in the knob modules. ideally you can normalize the value to 0-1 before going into the vstparam, then scale it to int afterwards.

cheers for the help but it stil dosent seem to be saving in the presets. is there any other values i have to put into the 'vstparameter'? i already have a 'true' parameter going into the 'store in presets' option. cheers

Michaels hint is good and he was also faster 😉

You have to give every Tab his own preset name like Tab1..2..3! And don't forget the WIreless Preset Link!

I made the changes in Tab2 for you... You can delete your 3 redraws because each TabSet has its own area redraw when replaced...

P.S. there are more optimizations 4 you 2do: Tab size corrections etc. keep on doing!

cheers, SUNsynth

    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.
