The quick answer to this one if you don't care about the right-click poly/single mode switching functionality is to modify a modular 1 module - http://www.modularsynth.co.uk/modular1.shtml

Otherwise...

modular modules don't have a "surface". the surface itself is in the circuit. it is super frustrating but as done by adern, bc modular and others it can be done. you edit the surface in the top level of the circuit, and the circuit in the levels below. like mentioned, the best way is to take an existing module and edit it. good luck!

you need an unlocked modular module for that.

what module are you using to try?

If anyone, one day has the courage to write a guide to build a simple modular module in SDK, I hope he'll not forget to upload it somewhere easy to find !

Wolf gives SDK tips here - http://wolf-audio.com/wad/scope-dp/scope-dp.html

Warp69 and another posted files with SDK info here - http://forums.scopeusers.com/viewtopic. ... 3&start=40

Don't know if these will be helpful or not but worth looking into.

Great, Dragon ! I'm impatient !

And thanks for those useful links, sounddesigner !

Now, the only missing thing is ..... Time !

here too eh :/ the only way i found so far is to use a module with the i/o i want and modify. i managed to duplicate controls though, but not to add ones. like if it has a fader i can duplicate it and have other faders, but if i try to add a control by myself from the folders it doesn't work. hmm

I've put the first part of a tutorial together. Hope it helps - http://www.bcmodular.co.uk/forum/viewto ... f=35&t=349

After exporting Pads from the circuit inside your modular module make sure you're in circuit mode and you should see the Pads on the top level. You then just need to delete the Pad Text, swap out the bitmap for the Pad and move it into position on the module.

Make sure you're in surface mode. Drop the new control into the project window and position it on the module before moving it into the ControlChild folder in the Project Explorer.

WoarR ! Shark ! You are irreplaceable ! Thanks a LOT !

I don't have even a minute, right now but asap, I'll follow that..! Let's encourage new developers !

aweeeeeeeeesome!!!!!!!!! thanks mate good stuff!

you dont need the on/off button to do on off. just use a regular button as 2-state!

Any surface GO will work on the modular module surface. You can even do pages.

It's likely you'll encounter problems with anything (combolists for example) which goes outwith the boundaries of the module. Also take care not to cover up the pads with surface groups.

what is so annoying is that in move mode if you move your module all your i/o goes out of alignment, so frustrating :0

still can't get new controls to show on the surface. i do it like you describe here but as soon as i move a control into the ControlChild folder, the control disappears.

Check if the controls have circuit or surface view ids. In surface screen, only controls with a surface ID are visible.(right click element in project tree/tool/swap view ID circuit->surface or the other way)

nice one claus!!! works thank you
