I'm considering revisiting my idea of extracting GUI from processing for my long-overdue revamp on my Karplus Plus synth.
It would entail having all GUI elements sent through wireless bus connections to all the areas where the parameters are needed.
I recall the bus was widely viewed to be too buggy for real work and that it may have specific problems with the wireless system. Can anyone verify this is a problem in the current version?

The problem was with selectors and buses I think. As long as you're not passing audio through a bus and through selectors you should be OK.
I went down this route with my plugin and it seems to work fine. I have a discrete processing chain with all the controllable parameters bussed in on wireless connectors. It makes a complicated structure much more manageable, and it doesn't seem to have a down side.

I have a super complicated synth here using buses on a lot of stuff and the only downside seems to be a slightly higher CPU usage and surprisingly longer load times If you can keep those down i don't see any issues at all

Thanks guys... this one's not that complex, although it will be a lot more complex than it's predecessor.
It's going to be a three or four OSC synth with a Karplus-Strong type resonator.

Hey Oddson, I'm not quite sure if I understand you right, but I think that I did what you are asking for in this tool: http://forum.image-line.com/viewtopic.php?t=36975
GUI through wireless and selectors, can easily change GUI preset, but it takes lots of time to name everything...

The bus module does not pass all data type through. I asked malc if he could finish this as it's a useful module but nothing was ever done. 🙁
