That's the only time I've seen it. And that > didn't srictly NEED to be exposed, but it was nice to see the knobs move :) How would the host handle that if the cutoff and resonanance were automated simultaneously? Most filters I know link the resonance to the cutoff internally, but they dont expose that to the user in that way. You have a consisent resonance value that sound appropriate over the usable range of cutoffs. - Steve ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Generalized Music Plugin Interface (GMPI) public discussion list Participation in this list is contingent upon your abiding by the following rules: Please stay on topic.
