Can I keep changes to the ADSHR upon reload?

Hi

I have a comm lib that I want the attack in the ADHSR to be different than how it was delivered. Whenever I change it and, a) save the patch, or b) save the project, it reverts back to how it was delivered by the dev.

I asked the dev about this, and they said that b/c these settings are loaded from within the script, the changes will be lost upon reload.

Is there anything I can do to prevent this? Either with a multi scrip[t, or some other way?

Thanks in advance.

 

You'd need to edit the instrument script. Pretty uncommon that they would force certain values like that...

 

Assign it to a cc and just give a quick twiddle upon loading.

 

Well, the dev told me that they DID force those values. Can I add a script into an open slot to override that?

 

You could, yeah, if you have a free slot after the one that forces the value.

 

I have three free slots after the one that forces the value!

Where do I fond the code to do this? I don't mind doing some research and trying to figure this out on my own, but I need a starting point, por favor

 

You need to use:

set_engine_par()
$ENGINE_PAR_ATTACK
find_mod()

 

Thansk!

So, I got somewhere

on init

declare ui_knob $Attackknob(0,1000000,1)
set_knob_label($Attackknob, get_engine_par_disp($ENGINE_PAR_ATTACK, 0, 0, -1))
make_persistent($Attackknob)

end on

on ui_control($Attackknob)

set_engine_par($ENGINE_PAR_ATTACK,$Attackknob, 0, 0, 1)
set_knob_label($Attackknob, get_engine_par_disp($ENGINE_PAR_ATTACK, 0, 0, -1))
end on

That works, to an extent....

1) Only the 1st group responds to the attackknob
2) That group's attackknob still doesn't remember it's position upon reload

Is this where find_mod() comes in?

I read this:

https://www.native-instruments.com/forum/threads/how-to-modulation-in-kontakt-via-ksp.266690/

But still don't really get it :/

 

You need to do this in a while loop across all groups (use loop counter instead of first 0), and yes use find_mod() instead of the second zero.

 

Instead of putting another script on top of the original script, I'd simply bypass the original AHDSR and add a new one (for all groups).

 

That is a good idea, unless the library has snapshots - they would override this.

 

Oh wow - I didnt think of that. That works - thanks!
