Default Macro controls

Hi there,

as the subject says, I'm looking for a possibility to handle several different controls with just 1 knob/envelope.

2 example setups:

1st: Just 1 synth
- I want to control the cutoff range from 20% to 60%
- and the resonance from 0% to 20%

2nd: 1 synth and 1 effect
- I want to control the cutoff range from 20% to 60%
- and the MIX control from a reverb from 5% to 15%


Just to mention:
It's not possible to use a modulation matrix in the plugins, so is it possible to achieve that via the native Reaper vst wrapper possibilities? If yes, how?

Well, you can do it with Parameter Modulation, but I find that setting the ranges in a bit tricky. Have a look at the attached project.

Here I have ReaSynth and ReaVerbate on a track, with ReaControlMIDI acting as a controller.
-- in ReaControlMIDI, I selected a single channel, enabled Control Change and selected Cc25 and C25.
-- in ReaSynth, [Param] I selected Detune (the Tuning slider) and linked it to ReaControlMIDI's CC24
-- in ReaSynth, [Param] I selected Sustain and linked it to ReaControlMIDI's CC24 too
-- in ReaVerbate, [Param] I selected Wet (the Wet / Dry knob) and linked it to ReaControlMIDI's CC25
-- By trial and error, I set the Offset and Scale for each.

Now, changing the CC24 control changes Tuning and Sustain in ReaSynth. And changing the CC25 control changes the Dry/Wet mix in ReaVerbate,

But .. have a look at BlueCatAudio's atchWork, that might be easier / more flexible. http://www.bluecataudio.com/Products/Product_PatchWork/

And for multi-track parameter modulation, have a look at http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=86188

Good hint! Very interesting, will have a look within my next project!
Sorry for the late answer

However:
This is more kinda workaround, but it's ok so far. If there's any other kind of "macro control" plugin or script, let me know!
