Not in your AU - who ever sets the value of the parameter is responsible for also notifying potential listeners of this change.

O.K. I've noticed some hosts don't call my own listeners I have to notify my gui on things like preset changing. Also I have my own 'next preset' button, that needs to run through the parameters,

In the Example code, there's an app called AudioUnitHosting - you can see there what you should do when a new preset is set on the AU.


I've not heard of problems in this area - you could try the multiband compressor in the situations where you aren't seeing these changes being propogated and confirm if it changes correctly or not. Its view is actually the generic carbon view - the code for this is shipped in the example code as well - you can't actually debug it, but you could at least see what it does and check this with what you do. (I don't see anything wrong with the code below, but of course that's not the whole story, so there's really too little to go on)

You could also try your AU in AU Lab - you could open multiple views on your AU and see if the changing of a param in one view (say AUL's generic view) changes yours and vice versa.

If you can actually document a specific situation where other views besides your own don't seem to be working, we'd be happy to investigate this further.

if I remove my listener notify calls my gui isn't notified. How else am I officially meant to inform my gui of changes?

I set up my gui listener like this:

// install a parameter listener for every parameter
OSStatus status = AUListenerCreate (EffectAUParameterListenerProc, this,
CFRunLoopGetCurrent(), kCFRunLoopDefaultMode, 1.0f / 25.0f, // ms
&parameterListener);
if (status != noErr) parameterListener = NULL;


if (parameterListener != NULL)
{
allParams.mAudioUnit = unit;
allParams.mScope = kAudioUnitScope_Global;
allParams.mElement = (AudioUnitElement)0;
for (AudioUnitParameterID i=0; i < TAGnumParams; i++)
{
allParams.mParameterID = i;
AUListenerAddParameter(parameterListener, editor, &allParams);
}
}


With the listener calling my gui like this:

static void EffectAUParameterListenerProc(void * inRefCon, void * inObject, const AudioUnitParameter * inParameter, Float32 inValue)
{
if ( (inObject == NULL) || (inParameter == NULL) ) return;


((Editor*)inObject)->setParameter((VstInt32)(inParameter- >mParameterID), inValue);
}
