OK - I'm just trying to conjure up an example of how to break this and
I can't... Seems like a good idea to do it this way.
This implies a certain channel relationship between in and out
capabilities on the same element ID...
Hmmm... I don't think Elements of Busses have to be related by dogma.
It should be up to the developer what the plugin does with the streams.
Hypothetically, I want to be able to do this:
Bus 0: 0-4 ins, 2-8 outs
Bus 1: 0 ins, 0, 2 or 4 outs
Bus 2: 0-0, 2-2, 4-4
In this case I would create 2 Elements on InputScope, 3 Elements on
OutputScope
Because Element 1 on InputScope doesn't do anything, I shift everything
this way:
Bus 1: 0-0, 2-2, 4-4
Bus 2: 0 ins, 0, 2 or 4 outs
(exchanged Bus 1 and 2)
so, for an Element that does not exist, I'd just return zero Channels...
In my opinion, the API offers this flexibility, and it shouldn't be
handicapped by any restrictions.
btw. I don't think this is crazy. There's no doubt that we'll see
demand for surround side chain inputs, and I also have a MusicDevice
project on ice that needs 2 side chains with flexible number of
channels...
The sooner we have clarification, the better 8-))
Cheers,
