VoiceGroupsData Table

(Since HALion 6.4.10)

Description

Voice Groups are managed through a special predefined table: the VoiceGroupsData table. This table can be obtained by making a call to getParameter with "VoiceManager.VoiceGroupsData" as parameter. The voice groups are referenced by their index. Each voice group has the fields .maxPolyphony, .exclusiveGroup and .stealMode. You can change the correspondig values, but the structure of this table must remain unaltered. The values are set by making a call to setParameter. See the example below for more details.

Available in: Controller.
