Dynamic NKS Parameter Values

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hey all, just wondering if anyone is able to help me out with dynamic parameter values reported to a host DAW, in this case Maschine.

Essentially, I am wondering how you are able to make a single knob update to show different values when a control is changed. Say if there was a sync and unsynced option for a delay time, how can I switch between displaying the unsynced (frequency) and synced (beat/bar) values on the same knob in the host?

I have seen ensembles that do this in the past but cannot for the life of me remember what they were…

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can in Kontakt with NKS 2, but not for plugins.

I appreciate the comment @Vagus

Perhaps I have not worded myself correctly, but I am just looking at Reaktor building and reporting automation names back to the host dynamically. I am wondering whether something like the automation module or a stacked macro could achieve something like this.

If it's Reaktor, then I'll be totally honest - I have no idea. Maybe possible, because unless saved as a snapshot, the NKS patches are stored in the ensemble itself and exposed to KK/Maschine. If you're able to build a variable automation, then it might be doable.
