load sample bank on startup ?
Hello :-)
i´ve developed a sample player w/ some special features for my needs and am currently looking for a framework to build a GUI around it. I found IPlug, which looks very promising. I could also build and test the example project and everything looks straight-forward, so for me IPlug is the best choice at the moment.
There is one thing i´d like to know / understand.
Imagine I load a sample bank at runtime (using the IFileSelectorControl).
Somehow i want the host to keep the information (=file name of the sample bank), so that i can automatically load it on restart (of the corresponding project, of course).
How do i make that ? There is a good parameter handing between host and plugin, serialisation and deserialisation of parameters (so the host can save/reset everything on startup if i understand this right) ... but all the parameters are basically numerical values. I can impossibly code a whole filename with path into a double or so.
Some ideas how i could implement this ?
thanks & best regards
Rudi
