Hi,
here a little giveaway that i constructed 4 my biiigg project... As a starter (will give the great SM-Com. more of this soon) i present this Endless knob!
It has many stolen parts in it but: also credit's !!!
So have fun 😉
Endless Knob 4 U
From the original SynthMaker forum (2004–2014), with its members’ names and dates.

Very nifty! I'm looking forward to the finished version.

I like this idea. I think it would work best if it reset to the min value as it passes one full rotation. if it was used as a control say resonance it would return to zero. I am likely only seeing a limited use for it but that is what I would use it for - a quick way to edit sounds.
Honestly I didn't look inside to see what you did yet so that may be provided I will get a chance to look this evening.

Cool - this could be useful for e.g. an effect plugin in a 'one-single-knob-design' fashion -> one knob controls everything and a selector defines what actually will get changed. Thanks for sharing!

Haha, thanks I used the knob part for my roulette wheel:
Knobman control by BASE designs
Pretty naff, but hey, I was bored... and slightly intoxicated.

Yeah - good idea electrogear and... skoal! 😉

Sorry, you lost me there a bit, who or what is skoal? Did I miss somebody out of the credits? 😊

Aha thanks for that 🙂
I'm not serious all the time, just ignorant to other people's languages.... well I'm English - It's a mandatory part of being an English citizen. 😀 When I go on holiday to another country I point and shout, and if they don't understand I shout a bit louder... in English of course! When I'm driving in a foreign country, I'm driving on the wrong side of the road (yes it is the wrong side, regardless of the fact 90% of the rest of the world drives on the right hand side!) and I wave at drivers as if to say 'thankyou' even if it means something offensive in their etiquette, and even if they are willing to turn around and chase after me to beat me up.... 😕
Haha :P

Here a little addon: Preset and label
Preset request by Tony!
Have fun!
P.S: This baby will never escape the beta phase 😉

This is cool; I don't know where I would use it yet.

seems to have 2 bugs, hehe:
drag mouse down long enough and rotation stops at some lower limit. drag mouse up long enough and rotation changes direction at some upper limit.

a) occurs when max is reached b) occurs when the value drag value gets negative

I think it`s a nice thing, funny to do stuff like 360 degrees panning.
sunsynth ·
OK guys... overlooked that... 😊
changed some params in Acrobats Y-Drag and added an AfterLoad!
Now u need 'some' time to drag to the min/max... 😉
P.S: U even can add an 'after Preset change' to Trigger the 'Set Current' of the Y Drag

Thank you so much!
You've helped me out a lot 🙂
antmorton_uk ·
Sorry for being a pain 🙂 but the knob jumps when it gets to the 0 point. It doesn't effect the values it outputs, just the knob graphic.
sunsynth ·
You're Welcome!
I 1st thought it is the Timer-Trigger-Logic because it dosn't know where to go if Zero but...
It's only the knob animation!
If u use ur own (made in knobman etc.) here the params: 64x64x 101 cells, Animation -180 to 180 degree...

Awesome work !! finally we have endless knob !!! The only trouble i see the speed of turn is little slow, hve to drag the mouse to much.
Congratulation !!! great work !
bootsy ·
Nice work and thanks for sharing!

If you go into the main knob module, just alter the number in the float box that connects to the 'scale' input of the 'DragY' primitive - you can scale the sensitivity to match your mouse setting perfectly with a bit of trial and error. It's hard to get this right for every user because we all have different mice with different windows settings (and different taste!).

Ok... more than a year is gone by so here a totally 'different' version:
Gradient Hue Angle Scanner
Based on a needed Jogwheel Mouse Angle radar
i came up with totally new idea: make 'some' radial segments in different colors and detect them for getting the mouse angle... I tried to find a PS script but gave up and tried the built in color gradient. I had mwvdlee's C2HSL never used before but i thought that it could be handy 😉 This awesome module gives us the hue under the mouse cursor! One day later after fiddling with a knob adding u all can use this as a knob (after some mods) or as an endless knob aka Jogwheel 😀
The knob part is only basic and eats up CPU but it's a start 4 us imagine knobs that directly follows the mouse etc. 😍
P.S.: Please make some knobs and show us ur work dudes!

Nice bit of lateral thinking there with the colour scanner - cool how it can detect colours even when they're "invisible".
Here's my take on the same thing - did it a bit more conventionally using trig' maths. After a lot of re-wiring, I finally got an accumulator part to work so that you can just keep on going round and round forever. No pretty stuff yet, just the bare bones...
...got a bit stuck adding a VST preset though - I need to have another try, getting the triggers to flow right for the accumulator part was very tricky.
sunsynth ·
Damn good work trog - i got lost in the angle calcs - 2 long out of school 😉
My (in)visible Colour scanner doesn't need a counter and is exactly what i needed - i just implemented it in my new controller project 🙂
btw: i need a little physics so that my jog wheel acts like a heavy turntable that doesn't stop immediately... and that only in 'green' - any idea?

This old arrowheads project of mvwdlee's might be useful - the later examples have arrowheads that have "inertia" built into them using his 'swinger' idea, might be possible to adapt that somehow.

Thanks 4 the hint... will report later cheers
