Re: [Bluemusic-users] General question regarding parameter automatisation

[Steven Yi <ste...@gm...>]

Hi Jan Jacob!

Sorry for the delay in reply, but I've been on a business trip and
have had little time for anything but work.

Regarding your question, automation of parameters for a BSB instrument
can only be done once per instrument, and does not work on the
note-level.  The only options at this time are to create copies of
your instrument and automate them individually.

In terms of abstraction, it makes sense as they are associated with
parameters and those are global values that are read by the
instrument.  I can imagine adding a feature that would allow creating
free-standing automations that would then generate just generic global
values.  Doing something like that, one could design an instrument to
then read from a global variable at note time (i.e. pass-in a value in
a pfield, instrument uses that value to lookup what free-automation to
use).  I can look into this if you would like, just add a feature
request to the Request for Enhancement tracker (from the help menu).

Hope that helps!
