Sorry, I wasn't trying to be obtuse. If the spec requires that hosts mediate all paramter changes (to allow simple automation) - which I'd hope for then the UI talking just to the plugin is not enough - the simplest option would be for hte UI to talk to the host on the plugins behalf - that rtequires some generalised support in the host (howefver basic) and so needs something in the spec. Even if its just "use OSC with this path suffix". - 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.
