ColaEuphoriais there a reason that the onus to load a plugin UI is on the host?02:32
drobillaer... how else would it work?02:53
*** ricardocrudo has quit IRC02:59
ColaEuphoriaoh wait, nevermind03:08
ColaEuphoriai didn't know VST actually gave developers an HWND handle. i thought plugins did that themselves for some reason03:09
ColaEuphoriai'll admit i'm very new when it comes to gui stuff03:09

dsheelerhow do i use pprops:logarithmic?12:22
dsheeleri was hoping this would make a controlPort log scale... but i couldn't get it to work... couldn't find use in examples12:23
grejppidsheeler: it's just a hint for the UI to set the behaviour of the widget13:23
grejppi(iirc)13:23
dsheeleragreed, but i think i was getting some syntax errors and i couldn't figure the syntax13:25
dsheeleri'm new to lv213:25
rgareusdsheeler: I don't think jalv honors log-scale when creating the UI.  Ardour does.    it's mainly useful for frequency controls.13:32
dsheeleryep... that's what i wanted :D13:32
rgareusvolume is usually exposed as "dB" (which is already log-scale by itself)13:32
rgareusso the GUI control for volume is a linear slider with the unit "dB"      (equivalent to  log-scale slider of "coefficent")13:33
rgareusdsheeler: example for log-scale freq:  https://github.com/x42/fil4.lv2/blob/master/lv2ttl/fil4.ports.ttl.in#L8213:33
dsheelerthanks!  i think i gave up before trying that13:36
rgareusThe turtle syntax can be somewhat strange (to users not accustomed to semantic web and federated data).13:37
dsheeleryeah, i'm getting to know it13:38
rgareusbut RDF in general (subject - predicate - object) was a IMHO great idea to describe interfaces.  esp for plugins: no need to actually load and open the plugin to discover the interface.13:39
rgareusif LV2 was developed a bit later, it'd probably be JSON-LD (instead of turtle).13:40
dsheeleri would go JSON13:41
dsheelerit's the easiest to read thing i've seen13:42
rgareustoo late for changing it now.  LV3 maybe.13:51
dsheelerooo, yeah, but i'll be used to turtle by then :P13:52
rgareusbesides it's mainly a notation. one could actually convert 1:1 turtle to JSON and back.13:52
dsheeleryep... it truly might be just what i'm used to using, JSON vs. Turtle13:53
rgareusthen again writing a tool that does that is on the same order as coming up with some utility for a user to define  the ports   and generate  (ttl, or ....)13:53
rgareuscould even be XML...  but let's not go that way :)13:54
dsheelerno more XML for me!13:54
dsheelerJSON is better than XML, objectively13:55
