  • [REQUEST] "Always load plugin data" preference option

    I have a big template on my VEP Server (a Dual Xeon - 32 GB RAM machine).

    For all the instances loading sample-based instruments (mainly Vienna stuff), I am happy with the "Decouple" function, as I don't need either to store the plugin data inside the sequencer project file nor to reload them when I reopen the file. Good!

    Conversely for certain instruments (mainly synth plugins or fast-loading sample plugin like Omnisphere), I would like that the "Decouple OFF" automatically loaded the plugin data in VEP without forcing the user to access the options appearing under the yellow arrow toolbar button. Due to the current behavior, the user must choose whether loading the plugin data or not for each plugin where the decouple button is off.

    So my request is the possibility to have some kind of preference option in the VEP Server side like:

    "When DECOUPLE is OFF for a plugin

    1 - Always load plugin data

    2 - Always discard plugin data

    3 - Ask the user"

    Thanks!

    Hi Paul,

    thank you for your reply. I know it's still two people, but I would like to know what you think about the idea. In my humble opinion, the way the Decouple feature behaves now could be improved implementing it.

    As a matter of fact, either ways, regardless you have it ON or OFF, the server doesn't load the data from the plugin. If the Decouple is ON, the plugin doesn't send any data at all, and that's fine. But if the Decouple is OFF, the user is forced to go across all the plugins for which the decouple is off and manually load the data. I don't think this makes so much sense.

    Paul, thanks for your consideration! [;)]

    Besides, I believe that my suggestion is really nothing special to implement.
