I asked Jorgen about it a ways back, according to him it's all on their end, and he made it sound like its as simple as pie to fix, "They need to dispatch the audioMasterSizeWindow opCode, index=width, value=height... "

Thanks for supporting v4.4.2! The feature list looks great to me. Regarding the energyXT gui size issue, the max. size setting should be fine enough for me.

nutsadamus; it might be the case that the wrapper does that on its initial scan, but if the wrapper only gets run intermittently, it wont make any difference to Sonar. And anything Sonar detects probably isnt passed back to the wrapper's registry information.
KLG; I'm actually surprised that v4.4.4 isnt available as a downloadable update, because the older versions dont support the new temposync setting. Since there are two possible 'up to date' versions in use, thats what I reckon I have to support. Luckily it has been relatively minor to do so, because of the way that I've rewritten my code...

Hey, there's Java VSTI support ... why not perl? My windows perl.exe (ActiveState 5.8.4) is "only" 41Kwhyterabbyt wrote:Hehehe. Although to be honest, I dont know offhand of another host where you can get access to change the menu structure...
My code is in Perl, Im afraid, so it would be a bit clunky to amalgamate into Sonar.

Yeah, perl.exe is small. But the perl58.dll (which the Activestate PDK adds when you compile to an exe) is about 750K. And from experience, perl::tk is going to add about another Mb to that at least.

The current version has virtually the same functionality as v3, although it's a total rewrite with much cleaner code. It will however, work for both old and new versions of the adaptor, and supports a couple of new things like the tempo-ync flag.
The rest of the new features and the GUI still have to be finished, but Ive had no real time to work on it for a couple of weeks.

First of all
SubSonar has made working with VSTs much easier in Sonar. I really appreciate it.
The features you have mentioned sound great, even though I just browsed this thread and have an immediate response to the tread title. Here are my thoughts, please excuse the redundancy.
Resizing VST GUIs would be GREAT. I don't know how Synth1 did it but I wish more developer would make plugins like it.
Nesting plugin groups would be nice maybe something like:
[effects]
EQ, REVERB, DELAY, FILTER, DYNAMICS
[/effects]
[eq]
GRAPHIC, PARAMETRIC, MASTERING
[/eq]
[dynamics]
COMPRESSOR, LIMITER, GATE, DEESER, MASTERING
[/dynamics]
[instuments]
SYNTH, DRUMS, STRINGS, KEYS, SAMPLER, BASS, MONO
[/instruments]
[synth]
ANALOG, ADDITIVE, WAVETABLE, FM
[/synth]
[you get the idea]
Just a thought.

Hi wwwill, and thanks.
Unfortunately its Sonar which creates the menus, so there's only one level of nesting possible. However you can be slightly creative with the naming to get soemthing close. I've already got that (slightly kludgy) solution in SUBSonar3 which can create menu folder names like
EQ__graphics
EQ__master
EQ__parametric
dynamics__compressor
dynamics__limiter
dynamics__gate
et.c.
Check out the section "Advanced : Folders Within Folders" in the documentation at http://whiterabbitdesign.co.uk/main/stu ... _docs.html
Given the way Sonar itself works, thats the best I can do, Im afraid.

Thanks for this, WR. My VST-wrapped plugs list has grown longer than my arm and scrolling down near the bottom is a pain; I'm looking forward to using SubSonar to help alleviate the situation.
A well-behaved signature.
