Hi,
first thank you for this great work!
as the title says, any chance / plan to make preset list switchable via
Midi Bank and Program change messages?

Thanks in advance,
Yıldırım.

Hi yellukhan,
Since i'm actually working on the native successor of REFLEX PRO it's very unlikely that i'll update the old version with new features.
But i'll take your request into account for the new version.
Maybe i implement it there.

Cheers

hmm,
Thanks, understandable, its quite old gem!

i have one more question in this case,
all the knobs sliders so all the parameters/selection boxes of Reflex pro2 has all them host Automation ID?
strange question i know but,
i need to be sure first, because i am planning to do some crazy things

via the new Snapshot ability in the Reaper.
if not ill continue with the Reapers preset manager.

edit..
for the new successor would fantastic if the user can organize the Preset folders
(each will contain max 128 preset) as Banks of the plugin,
so we can easily load/browse all of them via Midi Program-Bank Change Messages.
just thinking out loud..

Warm Regards,
Yıldırım.

Most of REFLEX PRO V2 controls could be automated. If you want to check if things work like you need it simply try the demo in Reaper.

Thanks for your Preset managing suggestions. I'll look what i can do...

Hi,
first, i am not trying to insist or something,
just for the clarification this is what i was trying to achieve..so where that strange question comes from:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9hE3 ... 1pnY1plTlU
(ill remove after you watch)

...

as a final, i was planning to add that workaround to this setup.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLq2fQpPzBI

i wish, "all" (of course absolutely no idea if possible or not

) controls was automated,
maybe this would finish with the Happy End...
but anyway, no problem ill stick with the selected 128.

btw. i hope we get good news from the "native successor" soon.

Have a nice weekend!
Yıldırım.

Hi Yıldırım,
thanks for the videos! From what i can see the snapshot system seems to work with RP2? But maybe i'm missing the point here...

Hi stw,
in the youtube video:
i created a Reaper Preset Bank ... while loading from RP2 / saving as Reaper preset from Reapers wrapper
( unfortunately 128 max at a time ..bank change not supported in Reapers preset system yet.. if supported i wouldn't ask the strange Q.)...
in this video i am using that 128 RP2 preset selection / Reaper presets via Midi Program change...
so the Snapshot works actually for this program change knob ( square shape with blue font) only.
...

just in case,
if you are referring the gDrive one..
i was trying to say:
"if all RP2 controls has host automation id i would do this for all RP2 presets ..
grab snapshots of them and leave behind the Midi Program Change limitation)"
as i said, then i realized,
seems some of the RP2 parameters/controls was hidden to the user and was handling by the preset managers (RP2 - Reaper)
because sounds different, loading via snapshots vs preset managers.

btw. RP2 not alone in this case, i am still trying them but except a few ones (for example camel space&phat)
most of the plugins seems like this

anyway,

Thank you for your interest!

Well that's great news. Glad to hear a new successor to Reflex Pro is coming. Please improve the GUI with it by removing some of the crowding and make the parameter-controls a little bigger (some of us have poor vision). The GUI is my only problem with Reflex Pro but i look forward to any new surprises you may come with. The Reflex series are great plugins that are truly not getting the attention they deserve. Love them! Can't wait for the new release!

Hi sounddesigner,
the GUI will be totally different and hopefully suit your (and others) eyes way better than the actual version

But still some work ahead...

The GUI improvement sounds like great news to me, and I would definitely pay upgrade price for that alone since I do love your plugins so much! As long as no financial crisis occur I'm sure i'll be buying the upgrade when it's released. I can't wait, good luck!
