How can I inc/dec patch numbers on VSTis that don have inc/dec switches?
Question: I want to be able to increment/decrement patch numbers using program changes on vstis which respond to prg changes but don´t have switches for inc/dec patches, such as Virsyn Tera. I know I can change patches using an environment fader cabled to the sequencer input. It would be cool if I would be able to do this with some +/- buttons in the environment but I cannot figure out how to do this. Answer: Create a button-style fader (Environment window’s New menu). Select the fader and in its parameter pane (left side of window) set its Out definition to “Meta”, -1- to 99, and range to 123-123. Copy/paste this fader, and set its range to 121-121. Cable both into a PrgChange fader (which is cabled into the VSTi’s channel strip of the Audio Mixer). The 1st fader will increment and the second will decrement, both with rollover (incrementing 127 will roll over to 0, and the other way around). If you don’t want rollover, replace 123 and 121 by 127 and 125 respectively. See the 4.0 manua
