One thing I haven't decided yet is the precise function prototype of the
functions that can alter the synthesis parameters directly. For example to
change the current volume of an active note, Kontakt has this KSP function:
change_vol(note-id, volume, relative)
- "note-id" is the event ID of the precise note (voice) you want to change its
volume of.
- "volume" is the new volume value of the note (voice) in millidecibel
- "relative" is special thing: if you pass 0, then the note's volume will be
simply overwritten, if you pass 1 then your new volume will be applied
"relative" to the notes's current volume value.
Now that last mentioned parameter probably outlines, that their function
prototype is a bit suboptimal. Because first of all, what is "relative"? Does
it "add" *or* "multply" the new volume value against the current value? Then
the next thing is, this "relative" behavior is just meant to be applied to the
value that *you* might have set before with a previous call of change_vol().
This "relative" option has *no* impact on other volume modifiers, like volume
LFOs, volume envelopes, etc. So what do we want to do with the current volume
changed by those mentioned other sources (LFO,EG,...)?
- Should this function simply override them completely and thus
effectively disable those other volume control sources?
- Should it rather add its value to the volume levels of the other
sources instead?
- Should it rather multiply its value against the volume levels of the
other sources instead?
Probably we rather want the script author to decide this, and then we need to
add more options for the change_vol() function. Comments appreciated.
