Subject: Need some help people

From: Reggie <reggie@...>

Hello all, I have programmed 11 scripts for the PLG an in VST 5.
I am now writing an update with more functions such as Morph control,
ARP Keyboard split, LFO key on reset. I am also updating the scripts to
show more names of functions in popups for ease of use.

Now for the help I need,

I have come across a small problem, with certain Values such as tempo or
ARP play effect Velocity, these functions require a number greater than
127 and therefore require special objects to be written. VST midi track
mixer only uses a min/max value 0-127, So you can either write 2
objects, the 1st deals with 0-127, 2nd 128-255 or You can use another
type of function that gives you all of the even values between 0 and
254.

So here is what I would like to know from all of you AN1x/PLG an users,
I am debating whether to use the 1st or second method for the functions
that I have mentioned, for arp/seq Tempo it might be a problem if I used
the second method (0-254) as you wouldn't be able to get at the odd
numbered tempos i.e. 135, 141, 97 etc. But would you notice the
difference if the ARP play effect Velocity was done using the same
method?

TIA,
See ya,

Reggie
