ENABLE MULTIPLE SETTINGS PRESETS: a task request for the open source project The Amanuensis: Automated Songwriting and Recording
Repository
https://github.com/to-the-sun/amanuensis
Details
The Amanuensis saves a file called Amanuensis.json which stores all of the general settings for the program, including audio driver, folders, the tolerance and memory span, compressor settings, gain levels, as well as all of the last used sounds for each track. This information is stored and recalled through a single preset (number 1) via the pattrstorage
object. However, it could be useful to store multiple presets so that if the system is taken to a different context (recording studio versus home, for instance) alternate settings could be recalled quickly.
Components
pattrstorage
is designed to accommodate multiple presets very easily. One would only need to send the pattrstorage
in the bottom left of Amanuensis.maxpat (selected in the screenshot) store x
and x
messages to store and recall presets as appropriate, where x
is the new preset number.
Some sort of quick and dirty UI scheme could be thrown together at first, with simple number boxes labeled with something like, "store current settings as preset number" and "recall settings preset number". Eventually this functionality would probably be best at the top of the settings menu pop-up window, but could just be "under the hood" in the patching view of Amanuensis.maxpat for now.
Deadline
There is no deadline, but we can discuss how long it might take to execute.

I haven't found any developers, no. One of the other moderators said he would try it out, said you tipped him off about it. Thanks for that, musicians willing to try it out and give me feedback are what I need first and foremost. As for solving these tasks, yes, I have taken care of a couple of them. In general I'm working on the tougher ones and leaving the easier ones as good first issues for anyone new. And I am updating the issues on my repo to reflect this progress.
