Knob

ATMOSYNTH built-in module

One number, as a signal to patch anywhere: a knob on a controller, brought onto the canvas. Bind a MIDI control to Value in its panel — Learn, and turn the knob you mean — and wire Out into any modulation input: the knob then opens a filter, deepens a vibrato or pushes a drive, and how far it reaches is set where it arrives, as with any other modulation here. At nothing it adds nothing, so a knob left down is a patch as it would be without it. It is the same number for every note, so a knob turned while a chord sounds moves every voice of it together. A setting a module already exposes can take a control of its own without this; the knob is for the inputs, which a control cannot reach any other way, and for one hand moving several of them at once.

What it is made of

The Web Audio nodes inside this module and how they are wired. Fork it to open the same graph in the editor, where every part can be changed.

A patch connects to it through audio output ‘Out’.

  • ‘value’ is a constantSource node. Its output reaches input 0 of ‘out’. A patch can set its offset, through ‘Value’.
  • ‘out’ is an audio output this module declares, set to output out.
  • ‘Value’ is a setting a patch can turn, from 0 to 1.

No published patch uses this module yet

When somebody publishes a patch built on it, that patch will be listed here.
