Use (when available) proper value scales for plugin automation envelopes
Often automation parameters have different value scales, exposed by plugins; why not using them?

ReaControlMIDI CC envelope values should range from 0 to 127
Same for pitchbend.

Also, many VST plugins expose the "real" value scales for their parameters (don't have details on how this is implemented in the VST specs, but some hosts support this).

Currently, all VST plugins and ReaControlMIDI have envelope node values in the range 0-1.

It would be of huge help being able to see and set real values for them.

Thanks,
Mario

ReaControlMIDI improved display coming soon. Reaper already displays "real" values for VSTs that report real values, the second post in the thread DarkStar linked explains why most VSTs do not report real values.

Pitchbend shouldn't be from 0-127, but from -8192 to +8191, IIRC.

But I can tell you that SONAR can show correct values for plugins that don't show correctly in REAPER.

Create envelopes in SONAR 8.3.1 and REAPER 3.11 for Cakewalk Channel Tools Gain L (dB scale) parameter or Tone2 Warmverb Fx1Par (percentage scale) parameter.

In SONAR envelope tooltips show correct "real" values, in REAPER they are always 0.00-1.00; so there must be a more compatible way to do it...

Thanks,
Mario

Erm ... I'd say implemented to the extent possible.
