Question

Is there a way to access effect sequence data from AEGP?

Hi All,

          I'm storing some sequence data in my custom effect. I known that sequence data can be accessed through AEGP_EffectCallGeneric(). But is there a direct way of accessing sequence data from AEGP without calling custom effect like AEGP_GetStreamValue()?

Thanks,

Dheeraj

nope.

it can't be done. (at least to my knowledge)

if you absolutely HAVE to avoid effectCallGeneric() you could store your effect data in an arbitrary_aparam instead of sequence_data.

arb params can be accessed via GetNewStreamValue().

Thanks Shachar.

It can be saved in arbitrary data. But when SEQUENCE_RESETUP/SEQUENCE_SETUP is called PF_ParamDef *params[] is NULL, so I cannot access or modify arbitrary data there right? Or is there a way to access arbitrary data even if PF_ParamDef *params[]is NULL when SEQUENCE_RESETUP/SEQUENCE_SETUP is called?

an effect can read it's own arb_param via GetNewStreamValue().

i believe it can be done during SEQUENCE_SETUP/RESETUP as well.
