Description
Hi Folks, This is a completely overhauled version of my previous Knob Twiddler. In particular, it fixes the issues mentioned by "C" in the comments below. Now it can remember all of its settings when reloading the Live set.
Essentially, this is an artificial knob twiddler that simulates what a human "could" do with a knob, using their Thumb and Index finger. This is totally different from what an LFO or an envelope can do. Most humans can't twiddle a knob quickly and precisely like an LFO.
Usage:
Map to your Live parameter.
The Value row sets the min/Max values of the mapping. Values will be between min and min + Range (= Max). The Nodes determine the number of breakpoints in a period between minimum and Maximum. I like medium complexity with the Nodes somewhere between 7 and 14.
On the Speed row, decreasing the Slowness is equivalent to increasing the Fastness. I generally prefer to have the Slowness above 500ms. If its smaller than that, it starts to get inhuman. The Nodes parameter sets the number of slope changes that can happen in a given period. I like medium complexity with the nodes somewhere between 7 and 14.
Smoothier rounds out the corners.
It can also send the mapping out to a specific CC#. This is useful for External Instruments that don't have a GUI.
Enjoy
