Hello!
Im working on a project where I would like to access the parameters names and types.
Here is an simplified example of how would like to do so:
...
function printParams()
print("These are the current params: ")
for i, v in ipairs(params.params) do
print(params:get_id(i))
print(params:t(i))
end
end
...
function init()
printParams()
...
That test code outputs:
These are the current params:
nil
7
output_level
3
input_level
3
monitor_level
3
engine_level
3
softcut_level
3
tape_level
3
nil
0
monitor_mode
2
headphone_gain
1
nil
7
reverb
2
rev_eng_input
3
rev_cut_input
3
rev_monitor_input
3
rev_tape_input
3
rev_return_level
3
rev_pre_delay
3
rev_lf_fc
3
rev_low_time
3
rev_mid_time
3
rev_hf_damping
3
nil
7
compressor
2
comp_mix
3
comp_ratio
3
comp_threshold
3
comp_attack
3
comp_release
3
comp_pre_gain
3
comp_post_gain
3
nil
7
cut_input_adc
3
cut_input_eng
3
cut_input_tape
3
nil
7
clock_source
2
clock_tempo
1
clock_reset
6
link_quantum
1
link_start_stop_sync
2
clock_midi_out
2
clock_crow_out
2
clock_crow_out_div
1
clock_crow_in_div
1
Sorry for that awkwardly long output, I couldn’t concatenate the names with the types because the names are sometimes nil… which is finally getting me to my question!
How do I access the type enum in the lua api so that I get a text description of the type?
When I see “nil” that means a group (7?) or separator (0?) correct?
I see that we can add a group with the params:add_group(name,n)
function is there a way to get the text name of the groups from the lua api? Or is there a way to get the name of the group from the params?
When adding a param is there a way to specify which group it should be in?
Sorry for so many questions at once!
Thanks!
Eric
