However, a much better approach is to use the AudioProcessorValueTreeState constructor directly

YourAudioProcessor()
: apvts (*this, &undoManager, "PARAMETERS", { std::make_unique<Parameter> (paramID1, paramName1, ...),
std::make_unique<Parameter> (paramID2, paramName2, ...),
... })
UndoManager *const undoManager
Provides access to the undo manager that this object is using.

Member Function Documentation

◆ getDefaultValue()

float AudioProcessorValueTreeState::Parameter::getDefaultValue ( ) const
overridevirtual

This should return the default value for this parameter.

Reimplemented from AudioParameterFloat.

◆ getNumSteps()

int AudioProcessorValueTreeState::Parameter::getNumSteps ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns the number of steps that this parameter's range should be quantised into.

If you want a continuous range of values, don't override this method, and allow the default implementation to return AudioProcessor::getDefaultNumParameterSteps().

If your parameter is boolean, then you may want to make this return 2.

The value that is returned may or may not be used, depending on the host. If you want the host to display stepped automation values, rather than a continuous interpolation between successive values, you should override isDiscrete to return true.

See also
isDiscrete

Reimplemented from AudioParameterFloat.

◆ isDiscrete()

bool AudioProcessorValueTreeState::Parameter::isDiscrete ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns whether the parameter uses discrete values, based on the result of getNumSteps, or allows the host to select values continuously.

This information may or may not be used, depending on the host. If you want the host to display stepped automation values, rather than a continuous interpolation between successive values, override this method to return true.

See also
getNumSteps

Reimplemented from AudioProcessorParameter.

◆ isBoolean()

bool AudioProcessorValueTreeState::Parameter::isBoolean ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns whether the parameter represents a boolean switch, typically with "On" and "Off" states.

This information may or may not be used, depending on the host. If you want the host to display a switch, rather than a two item dropdown menu, override this method to return true. You also need to override isDiscrete() to return true and getNumSteps() to return 2.

See also
isDiscrete getNumSteps

Reimplemented from AudioProcessorParameter.
