Primitives from oft-used modules (was Flip primitive)

Prob one of the most used modules right now is the lowly flipper. Could please a Flip primitive be made, to help make schematics smaller & faster? Should be easy; just hack a Int Sample & Hold to be boolian & hack in the Not.

{edit} Another constantly-used module is the Switch (most use IntS&H, but a SM user posted the best version IMHO):

cheers

Other ideas, in the lines of super-often used modules that would be better off as Primitives?

I'm not sure how much speed gain if any these kind of components would give or how many the devs want to take on... but then I was surpised to see the boolean AND and OR components added as their module counterparts only took a couple of pieces... I guess it's their call. 🙂

I agree with infuzion, a flip module gets used quite alot so a primitive module would be quite usefull to have.

Heh, nice thinking on those boiled down schematics 🙂

I feel exactly the same way... but they shouldn't take long to build either. Not a high-priority.

Thanks for the comments!

    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.
