I can't get my head right on this, how can I make an endless knob that goes to 1 if you drag below 0 and to 0 if you drag above 1?

something like this should work (% is the modulo operator):

// works with 1/100 resolution: const max=100;

y=new_value_from_knob*max; y=(y+max)%max; set_knob(y/max);

a schematic would help to understand you O_o

sorry, I have no Synthmaker here. But It's not that hard:

I guess, your button has a DragY or something and is built like a standard knob.

take the value of the DragY, multiply with 100 (assuming 1/100 accuracy) add 100 (important - so it jumps back to positive values when going negative) connect float to int do a int modulo div by 100 back to float divide by 100 this is your new value feed back to VSTParameter and Redraw

Hmm, nice idea, although its not working flawlessly...

    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.
