Different values for Steinberg VST

2014-11-25 by Paul Donnelly

Hello all,

I was wondering if you could help me out.

Having looked through the BD implementation pdf, royce craven's "secret BC" pdf and the BC manager pdf, I seemed to have hit a wall in respects to my programming of my BCR. I am relatively new to programming/coding so please bare with me.

I have Steinbergs Cubase (6.5) and I am using the BCR to control it's transport functions using a template I found online.

I also use a built in VST called padshop. Some parameters go from 0 - 1000 (0% - 100.0% @ 0.1% at a time) and some -200% to + 200% (400 increments altogether) and so on...
They work with CC however, I can only change them in midi values(0 - 127). So When I turn a knob the BCR sends 1 and on a parameter which has 1000 as it's max value, it then changes 1.6% up until it reaches 1000%. These jumps are quite noticeable.

I have looked into writing a custom code for the value that the BCR sends out.

for example.

$encoder 33
.showvalue on
.mode 1dot
.resolution 96
.default 500
.minmax 0 1000
.tx $B0 118 val0.6 val7.13

Also when I try to program an encoder using BC manager, even when I use a max/min of 0 - 1000, once the encoders turns to 127 it resets and the knob on the VST starts back at 0!

I actually don't know what to do. I would expect that the VST can accept smaller values because when I use the mouse jog wheel, the parameter moves at 0.1% at a time! So why can't this be done using the BCR? I hope I have explained myself, it is all very confusing to me.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Paul
