Different Knob Values translating to 0-127

Is it possible to "transform" or "translated" different minimum and maxuimum values inside a knob like 0...1 or 0.2...0.7 to an additional float readout with the range of 0 - 127(stepped to 0,1,2...125,126,127)?

Use that little (P) in the lower-right hand corner.

Well i think i didn`t explain it clear enough what i meaned. For example, i set the minimum zu 0.4 and maximum to 0.94, as value internal of the knob(little p......) So there float readyout is between 0.4 and 0.95, logical.... but i need a way to have there a additional float readout, but in a tpyical midi cluster with stepped value in a range of 0 - 127 😉

"Maths" folder has what you need, but you will have to use some Int math to get the whole-number stepping/rounding.

If you look inside the standard knobs, you can see that the min/max section is right at the end. The value coming out of the 'Preset' module is always zero to one - so a simple float multply from there will easily get you the MIDI range. SM will automatically round off floats if you put them straight into any integer connector.

PS The 0-1 range for the preset part is important if you are ever making your own knobs - that is the only range that the VST host will understand for automation.

Exactly! So if you need 2 ranges, you need to translate first to [0..1] then to what ever you need after the Presets module. If you want a different display that is not [0..1], & an extra output that is also different, then you need 3-4 translations.

This works for me and the preset manager seems happy with it.

Yes exactly, see I wanted for you to learn for yourself! & you did it! Caution: Those Min/Max modules have Wireless Outs, & I'm guessing you did not change their names from SM's defaults. SM may get confused or sum those values. You only need one.

😕 I didn't ask the question

Good to know, these run out to a selector so they are never both outputting at the same time guess thats why I've had no problems.

Thanks for the replies, well all what i searched, was already there in the basic readout knob, so absolutly my fault 😀

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
