MY WORKAROUND for this is to assume that whatever host I am using, it's up to my AU to deal with this. So my AU's user interface is able both to display all the parameters for the current voice, and to bind them all to MIDI controllers. If the user needs automation, then he'll at least be able to automate the MIDI controllers in the host.

Interesting. I have similar problems.

My workaround consists of defining the dynamic parameters as generic parameters (eg Custom1, Custom2 etc) and simply suppling a 0..1 range. In the UI I map the values appropriately for user feedback and if the host supports value<>strings then I can supply something more meaningful in automation editors as well. Also, if the user has recorded automation data at least it will be in the correct range even when the changes happen.

But, if I was to rise above my station (the worst crime an Englishman can commit according to Brian Eno) then I might suggest bundling some of these finer AU capabilities into a specification. Hosts/AUs can then advertise that they fully support such specification and it makes all our lives easier?
