Main features: Plugin (Select & Edit)
1. Plugin Select: When a track is selected that has PluginInserts, pushing the "Plug-In" button on a mackie will list these across the strips. Clicking a vpot of a strip enables editing the parameters of this selected plugin.
2. Plugin Edit: When a Plugin is selected for editing, the input parameters of the plugin are shown across the channel strips and the vpot is assigned the corresponsing AutomationControl for the parameter.
Minor features
- When the number of plugins or the number of parameters exceeds the number of strips available on the surface, one can flip through "pages" of views using the Cursor Left and Right keys (this logic I took from http://www.emagic.de/media/support/content/manuals/LogicControl_en.pdf)
- When in the Plugin Select mode, rearranging the plugins in the mixer strip is reflected on the surface.
- When in Plugin Edit mode, rearranging the plugins in the mixer strip still retains the edit view of the selected plugin (rearranging does not take away the current subview)
- When removing a plugin in the mixer strip, this is reflected in Plugin Select, while the view jumps to Pan/Surround (the None subview) when in Plugin Edit mode.
- Removing a track resets the subview to None
- When in a Subview that is track-specific (Track, EQ, Send, Plug-In, Inst), selecting a different track retains the subview but updates the channel displays and vpot assignments accordingly. When in Plugin Edit mode for track A, and track B is selected, it changes to Plugin Select mode for track B (if plugins are present).
This may need some small tweaks for MB channelstrip to set
print-format (like LV2 plugins would) for cases where the default
value_as_string() differs.
* Depending on individual strips to watch the selection property is prone to failure.
* Stripable_selection_changed() is called when a selection operation is completed.
Strips now maintain a pair of pending display strings (upper and lower).
A periodic timeout writes the pending value to the actual hardware if it
differs from the current string. This new design makes it easy to put a
message on the display and then after some period of time, revert to
whatever was there before.
Fixes all kinds of miscellaneous issues with MCP. Also removes several theoretical pan modes, replace "Tracks"
pan mode with "Trim", and takes a tiny step towards view modes
* implements Metering on/off through Button::Read as per Seablade's suggestion. I choose this button as it's the "Show meters" button in Traktion;
* removes redundant code from Meter::update_transport_rolling();
* renames Meter::update_transport_rolling() to Meter::notify_metering_state_changed();
* renamed Surface::notify_transport_state_changed() to Surface::notify_metering_state_changed();
* renamed Strip::notify_transport_state_changed() to Strip::notify_metering_state_changed();
* created MackieControlProtocol::notify_metering_state_changed() and made MackieControlProtocol::notify_transport_state_changed() use it;
* implemented turning off of timecode display and two char display in Surface::zero_all ();
* implemented master fader zeroing in Surface::zero_all ();
* calling Surfaces->zero_all() at MackieControlProtocol destructor;
* implemented restore of 2nd LCD line content after metering being active.
