Default JS: Volume Adjustment default level

Apologies if this has been posted before, but

I think this should be set to 0 instead of +6 by default, it just doesn't make any sense

Just edit
Code:
slider1:6<-60,0,0.1>Adjustment (dB)
to
Code:
slider1:0<-60,0,0.1>Adjustment (dB)
and save plugin with your preferred name.

But, yes, agree

..and the max vol thing allways confuses me

Thx, G-sun!

Isn't this "max volume" thing some kind of limiter/cliping ceiling? Every time when i need this plugin, i set this slider to maximum 150 dB to prevent limiting/cliping just in case.

P.S.

AirWindows PurestGain and BitShiftGain is good alternatives for easy gain adjustment purposes.

not sure why the slider "max" is set to "0" ?
maybe an old version ?
it should be > 0, otherwise you have no gain, only attenuation.

something like this...
Code:
slider1:0<-60,60,0.1>Adjustment (dB)
you can change the min (-60) and max (60) levels to whatever you want, really.

yes, it's a hard clipper and that sets the threshold.

and since we're nit-picking here...i don't think it's a good idea to have the gain calculated using "2^(x/6)", it should be done using "10^(x/20)" so it coincides with Reaper's faders.

Cool! I set slider1 to 0.1, but when I double click the slider it resets to zero, Can it be changed so it resets to 0.1 also?

are you saying you want to set the default value with the slider itself and not the slider code ?
i don't think that's possible.

edit: oh...do you mean when you set the slider code to default to '0.1' it doesn't work ?
if so, that's because you need to change the increment from "1" to "0.1".

Code:
slider1:default value < min value , max value , increment >Adjustment (dB)

OK, well I set increment to 0.1 and now when I double click the slider it is set to 0.1, so I guess thats all there is too it?

slider1:0.1<-150,150,0.1>Adjustment (dB)

Anyway, the plugin should be updated in native Reaper.
One slider for volume, that's all.

JS: Volume utility +-10db (sample accurate automation)

has just one slider. I think it is a fairly recent addition.

Yes. Every time I update Reaper, I have to re-edit this plugin. I know it's a simple thing... I usually forget to do it.

Yes, that's a pit. Save as renamed file is better I guess.

Just to avoid confusion, that's my mod, available in ReaPack.

To make it clear - what i did was simply create a new default preset set to 0,
but i'd like if this was adressed directly in future Reaper releases
