BassVstBASS_VST_GetParam Method

BASS.NET API for the Un4seen BASS Audio Library
Get the value of a single VST effect parameter.

Namespace:  Un4seen.Bass.AddOn.Vst
Assembly:  Bass.Net (in Bass.Net.dll) Version: 2.4.17.5
Syntax

[DllImportAttribute("bass_vst")]
public static float BASS_VST_GetParam(
	int vstHandle,
	int paramIndex
)

Parameters

vstHandle
Type: SystemInt32
The VST effect handle as returned by BASS_VST_ChannelSetDSP(Int32, String, BASSVSTDsp, Int32).
paramIndex
Type: SystemInt32
The index of the parameter (must be smaller than BASS_VST_GetParamCount(Int32)).

Return Value

Type: Single
on success.
Remarks

All VST effect parameters are in the range from 0.0 to 1.0 (float), however, from the view of a VST effect, they may represent completely different values. E.g. some might represent a multiplier to some internal constants and will result in number of samples or some might represent a value in dB etc.

You can use BASS_VST_GetParamInfo(Int32, Int32, BASS_VST_PARAM_INFO) to get further information about a single parameter, which will also present you with the current value in a readable format.

Examples

List all parameters and values of a loaded VST effect:
// assign and load the VST effect
vstHandle = BassVst.BASS_VST_ChannelSetDSP(_stream, 
                    "C:\\VstPlugins\\DelayEditGUI.dll", BASSVSTDsp.BASS_VST_DEFAULT, 1);
// get the total number of parameters
int vstParams = BassVst.BASS_VST_GetParamCount(vstHandle);
// create a paramInfo object
BASS_VST_PARAM_INFO paramInfo = new BASS_VST_PARAM_INFO();
for (int i=0; i<vstParams; i++)
{
  // get the info about the parameter
  float paramValue = BassVst.BASS_VST_GetParam(vstHandle, i);
  Console.WriteLine( paramValue.ToString() );

  // and get further info about the parameter
  BassVst.BASS_VST_GetParamInfo(vstHandle, i, paramInfo);
  Console.WriteLine( paramInfo.ToString() );
}
The output from the above might look like this:
0,5
Delay =   22049 samples
0,5
FeedBack = 0.500000 amount
0,75
Volume = -2.49877 dB
