Hi there

In my new plugin I'm looking at having loading / saving banks built in the plugin itself i.e. you don't need to use the host's preset loading to load in presets (this is because of a message I've recieved about preset loading)

Is there an easy way to code loading/saving of presets/banks or do I need to hand code things using the structure in VSTFXStore

Cheers

you could do what Muon did with the CM free plugs, and have a proprietry file format (.404, .202, etc); and let the host do the fxp/fxbs. That way, the host can do it's formatting, but you can order things how the heck you like!

Hi there

I used my own file format's in some of my previous software for that reason , but in my most recent one I returned to fxp / fxb.

Is there a procedures which are called when host's load / save presets ?

Cheers

Jon
