I need a horizontal bar slider. If you where to take one slider from the step lfo and turn it on its back then you should get the picture of what I mean. Unfortionately I have no idea how to make one myself. Has anyone made a slider like this?

😕 ...the stock step LFO doesn't have a slider.

Josh ·

Um what I mean is to take one of those adjustable bars of the step lfo that are adjustable vertically and lay it on its back horizontally. I hope that clarifies it

There's a tutorial in the Wiki about building custom controls

Vertical, not horizontal but flipping the co-ordinates, mouse drag from y to x etc. should be fairly simple. I've a few slider type controls knocking about if you want to have a look at them... lemme know.

Well, actually it comes from a vertical one from Exonerate, that I modified and expaded a bit to be horizontal, but 80-90 % of thx must go to him. As you can see yourself, he's one of the most actives on the forum this year... 🙂 Anyway there's no more that graphics so you have to Frankenstein with a stock slider to get a fully-functional one.

I try for long time do for sliders, or stuff like this add inertail movement, acrobat you figure ho can create intertial movement?

Something if i move at normal speed with mouse, the movement is ok, but when drag faster add a little of inertia....

You can have, at a certain time I implemented them for my Alieno monosynth and it was so cool. Then I realised they were actually interfering with automation and rendering. So I tossed the effect, but if you want it at all costs I think at least you have to try to fake the slide and let the plug run freely underneath.

There's already an example called "dexterminator" here in the forum, must be there still..oh but that's the opposite, actually an "attractor" function I think DJgroby is still using on his touchscreen thing..
