Similar to my first synth while I was experimenting with the example synth. How did you get the knobs like that on the filter? Was it from the audio oak module pack? I think the chorus & gate text colour needs changing so that you can see it.

Cheers,

Mike

They are from AM's knob pack not the AO module pack. At least they look like ones AM has made but i may be wrong 🙂

OK - cool. At least I know where to look now. I don't like just using other people's components in my synths, but it's always good to pull them apart to see how they work, and then make something myself. It seems the best way for me to learn. I wanted to make a scale around my knobs, and noticed the increments there and thought that might help. I will probably have to use an external graphics program anyway, but it would be nice if there was something in SM that would let you do this.

I've been trying to get the level meters to change colour (red) towards the top (like most VU meters do) and green at the bottom, but I'm finding it hard. I guess it would mean a lot of maths components?

Cheers,

Mike

As i thought i was right they are made by Am and are from here -

SkOre must have added them into the module pack (lots of stuff in it's from the forum here)

You certainly can draw a scale around your knobs in S|M, the knob below was drawn entirely in S|M (I liked the knobs on N.I.'s Massive VSTi - thought I'd recreate them for fun) :-

What you need to do is use a graphic Loop module and connect that to a Rotate module which rotates your ticks/points/etc. If you need some help getting this to work just say 😉
