Default Export Preset Variables

Hi everybody,

I'd like to somehow "export" data from VST presets, such as the freq/gain/band of the EQ, or other parameters from the compressors.
Briefly, I'm using Reaper for designing filters that I will implement on a DSP; for this purpose, it would be very nice to save the FX parameters in a readable format.

Thanks in advance!

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Every vst comes with it's own preset manager but you can save, import and export presets(.fxp/.fxb,and native .rpl) within Reaper by clicking little + sign on top of plugin window.

Take a look at this:

I wrote a little script.
you can edit the code for better formatting.

line 26 >
msg("Value-> "..string.format("%.2f",param_value).." Name-> "..par_name)

Change Value-> & Name-> indicators to your desired names.
If you don't need indicator just replace line 26 with this:
msg(string.format("%.5f",param_value).." "..par_name)

Change %.2f (2 digit) to %.8f (8 digit) to display precise floating point.

Outboarder,

you are my new god. Thank you!

I did imagine that some trick would be possible using .lua code; however I am quite a newbie in Reaper coding, so I have preferred to ask first.

Thank you again!

If you like to learn about reaper lua watch these useful tutorials by X-Raym, it's in French but has subtitle, watch all and you will learn French as well.
