Question

Rename inserts/vst parameters. Studio one uses the default (developers defined) insert/plugin name for MCU & UCNET.  EQ pro uses names like "LC-Frqn" "LF-Frqn" "LF-Gain" "LF-Q". I would prefer to adjust the names into "L.fr" L.gain" "L.q".

Example: API vision channel strip

Compressor knee setting is Hard or soft but the parameter name is "255 Knee". I would like to change the visualized label (on the remote App and MCU controller) this into "Hard Kn." This enables me to recognize and adjust the Hard (Button on) or soft (Button off) Knee setting.

Compressor feedforward of feedback setting is now displayed as "225 Type", I would like to adjust this in "F.forward

Filer setting for on/off is now displayed as "215 on", I would like to display this as "Filter"

Solution:

Add an translation tabel for each plugin / insert parameter

Internal Value- Display Value

212 PAD        -20DB

215 ON          Filter

225 On          Comp On

225 Type        F.forward

225 knee        Hard Kn

I found the file Mackie Control.surfacedata (Windows 10) which is an XML file and can be opened with a text editor. It shows all the parameters mapped, but I can't seem to add a friendly name to the parameter - maybe there is a way to do this?
