Reporting missing media files to the DAW

Is there a way for a sample-based audio unit to report to the host if there’s a missing media file?

The scenario is this:

  • User loads an audio file into the sample based instrument/plugin.
  • User saves the session, quits, deletes the audio file.
  • User opens the saved session.

Without any notification to the host about the missing media file, the session would seemingly open fine, but will not play correctly.

Thanks!
