Anyone know what's going on with this?
Is Dexed going to support polyphonic host modulation?
The dexed nightlies are a clap

I was looking at exactly this and chatting briefly with asb2m10. No promises no timelines but the structure of the code doesn’t make it impossible. It would be very powerful in dexed and bitwig, and a few of the tricks from surge might apply.
I didn't see a clap version in the Mac build from here:
https://github.com/asb2m10/dexed/releases/tag/Nightly
Is there another build with CLAP?

Yeah he’s been moving to github actions. https://github.com/asb2m10/dexed/action ... 2642309952 There’s a run from yesterday which should include a clap build

That sounds promising. I also noticed that a resizable gui is under development. That plus poly modulation clap support would make a pretty amazing experience in bitwig.

A resizable gui!! Yes, please!! It’s hard to find plugins that scale to my high resolution monitor on Linux. 🙂

It's already resizable. 100% or 150%

Yeah but it's not a good size for many screens and it's fuzzy. The feature improvement listed for the current development is "Scalable UI upgrade, better UI redraw".

Hopefully that means something in between the 100% and 150%.

Yeah, but it doesn't work very well, and is still too small. Any improvement in this area is appreciated.

This ^^^ .....however, I'd like to see an option for 200% as well. ;)

But how do I download the build? I can't see it. Is there a direct link somewhere to the mac build with clap???
I am confused. Of course I have no idea what actions means...
I can see that it uploaded a build, but not the slightest hint where...

You need to sign into Github. Then those filenames under "Artifacts" become clickable.

This is what I see after being logged in, where is "Artifacts"?

Sorry about github account, I didn't know that this required an associated account. Please use this link and let me know if it works (and the UI scaling works better) :

Yes, please do report back about the UI scaling!

@asb2m10, is there any chance you could also give us a 200% scaling option? At 150%, the GUI still looks too small on my 14” 4k laptop screen.

125% is a nice size here. Tried the CLAP version but the resize doesn't work (windows).

Any plans to make use of the CLAP host poly modulation?
