I talked with Jorge on irc about this already but I'll add it here just as a reminder. Mouse velocity component could be used for controlling a knob more smoothly, no need for modifiers or atleast you could then make the CTRL modifier key for fine tuning really small and then depending on how fast you drag the mouse up or down it changes the value accordingly.

It could also be used for all kinds of cool effects when using the mouse as a controller.

Cheers! bManic

it's a good idea..to have finer movements possible for knob/slider rotation.. i guess it will be doable wtih primitives 🙂 another great feature to have would be to set the knob/slider value just clicking on its crown/slider-lane at the point you want to set the value.. to do quick rapid value changes..

That clickable kind of slider is already doable by using the mouse area component.

    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.
