Here some knobs I made...24 knobs, might have to align a label here and there, most are pretty useful.

Will put this on the wiki as well...

AngularMomentum ·

Maybe someone else with access to the wiki can do this? Seems I can't get in?

jobro ·

Alot are bleeding and some are missing.

AngularMomentum ·

They work fine here.

tecknoize ·

Hm uh what? You can't log in?

I think what he means by 'bleeding' is clipping. See bottom row 1 and 3.

There's a very minor clipping showing on the left hand side.

And, oh, these look AWESOME! (seems to be the word of the day for me... but it's true 🙂)

@AM - what program u using to stitch? I'm using photoshop CS2, but can't fnd a good stitch util. I had RLH's knob rendered, but it doesn't seem to work properly on my system. Any info would be great [commercial or free is fine]

TobyBears StitchStudio is what I use, very nifty little program, freeware 🙂

I was using RLH version 2, which actually worked better then version 3...now I am doing all my stitchwork with the autobutton stitching in SM or whatever it is called again. 😉

These are very good indeed! Thanks for sharing! Can I use these in my synths? Do you ask for a fee?

Thanks,

Mike

Everything I post here is for the love of it,...don't care if you use it in a commercial or freeware synth.

MyCo ·

I updated the most of the knobs, with the new Redraw-Manager, the Preview-Fix, the interact-update, and so on...

Here is the osm: http://music-drive.com/all_knobs.osm

Hey MyCo! Thanks a lot 🙂

Good work, MyCo!

A general remark: I noticed that the SM knobs are kind of jumpy just after having used the SHIFT button to make fine-adjustments. Seems like a weird kind of mouse dragging (memory) behaviour........ but then again, maybe it's just me on blue monday 😉

I was thinking this over the weekend, though not just after SHIFT adjusts. Action just seemed jerky. I loaded up another non-SM synth to make sure it wasn't my setup (mouse, cpu-load etc.) but that seemed much smoother.

Not something I want to flag as a bug yet until I've played some more.

...... I mean just after releasing the Shift button (and still dragging), when not holding the mouse perfectly still, suddenly the knob either ends up at the min. or at the max. position..... 😕

MyCo ·

I don't think that this is a bug. If you release the Shift key while dragging, the normal tracking begins, and it uses the actual mouse position as value.

eg: If you drag with Shift one pixel up you get a change of a value x if you release Shift normal tracking begins and the new position is set, which is 10*x

The only possibility to change this is to store the Shift-State at the the beginning of the tracking as a boolean, and use this until the mouse-up event appears

MyCo ·

I've changed one knob, to demonstrate what I wrote in the last post: http://music-drive.com/demoknob.osm

TheAudiophileDutchman ·

Great idea, MyCo!

Now that knob runs smooth as a baby's ........ 😀 (and it's not necessary anymore to hold SHIFT all the time while dragging in fine mode)

GaryG ·

That's really cool Myco, nice one.

I'm going to put my jerky knob problem (quiet at the back...) down to something on my system, can't replicate it today.

Just a(nother) simple stitch-tool: 😉 http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Graphic/Graphic-Others/png-Stitch.shtml
