@falkTX I'm unsure about that part, if there's a more elegant way. How does that look to you? From my test and understanding of this module, both ui->values[] and call to carla_set_parameter_value have to be updated to the new value in order to update both the DSP and the UI.

yeah this should be done in a different way, I will handle it soon

Pretty basic for now, 8 parameters of the loaded plugin can be automated.
If inputs are connected, the expander "steals" the UI control, if unconnected, the user controls it.
Note that this is a left-side expander.
There has been some discussion about using the more common convention of right side.
I've made it left-side to experiment with the pattern of constructing chains of expanding modules: here this expander adds (parameters) inputs to the left, and future expanders for outputs could use the right side.
TODO:
Mark the parameter visually in the UI when the expander "stole" it.Done in cea5099Notes for future improvements:
