Description

The idea for this was born out of a conversation with Steve Young AKA "Hedflux" a few years ago. It seems that most soft synths today have an almost limitless variety of "VCO" waveshapes but the mighty LFO has been somewhat neglected. Steve suggested how cool it would be to be able to use single cycle, audio waveforms as modulation sources and after a half succesful attempt at a VST (Juce was way beyond me) the idea was shelved. Thank goodness for max!

You can drop any sample into the drop box and save its filepath to any of 100 "Favourites" for instant recall.

Remember to save as a preset once you've populated the Favourites !

MIDI version also available :)

    Brilliant idea! Thanks!
    Note to users: While knobs like Rate show only 2 decimals (like 0.02) and the knob precision is low, you can actually click and type like values like 0.00009 in most knob in Live that take a float, and it will work at that 0.00009 rate (the knob will show a rounded value).
