It is actually valid for parameters to have values outside this range. The synth supplies parameter properties to the host specifying whether each param is floating point or integer and what the min and max values are (for those hosts that support this).
Cheers.
I stand corrected 8-)
Next VSTHost version will do that properly, too (haven't come across a PlugIn before that needs it).

Having added calls to getParameterProperties() to VSTHost's parameter editing, I unfortunately have to say that you still should overhaul your parameters - while you do insert min/max integer values, you don't set the kVstParameterUsesIntegerMinMax, kVstParameterUsesIntStep, or kVstParameterUsesFloatStep flags.

I can't make it work on my machine.
It displays an error message about a "background.png" (if i remember well), and in Live, it is not "seen"...

Oops! Sorry. I'll add that into the next release. By the way, well done on VSTHost being one of the very few hosts that actually support that part of the VST spec.

I just put a new version of the manual on the site (http://www.humanoidsounds.co.uk) by the way. It's got some info about the GUI.

Are you using V0.9.3? What operating system are you using?

You might want to delete one small word here... :wink:

I have a suggestion in reference to people who's scanned synth gui isn't working.

I tried putting my old scanned synth .dll back into a random folder in my VST folder and the new one stopped showing up in FL until I took it back out. Perhaps it's n ID conflict of some sort. Ya'll have the old scanned synth still in your vst folder?

no?
I had installed once an old versoin of scanned synth, but deleted it as it didn't worked neither.

Still not working in MiniHost - Just stalls for a bit (blank screen) then reverts to previous plugin...:(

Hi everyone. I just posted version 0.9.4 that puts the GUI files in a separate directory. I hope this will help. I'll try out Minihost now!

Thanks John!

still getting nasty CPU spikes when it's not in use. I guess these updates were just for the gui problems.
