I have a SoundToGlobalController fader that I want to be able to switch to be manually controllable. I have come up with a solution (due partially to an old forum response), which is attached. I want the controller to stop in place when manual control is engaged (instead of jumping) and then be offset with the manual fader, but there's a problem with my current solution. In the attached example, when you enable the toggle, you switch to having the "Manual" fader control the globally controlled "LFO" fader. The problem is that there will be a jump of the "LFO" fader unless the "Manual" fader is set to "0" when the toggle is enabled. So what I want to do is to have the enabling of the toggle reset the value of the manual fader to 0 before the "LFO" fader is switched to manual control. Alternately, it could be the disabling the toggle resets "Manual" to 0, since once the toggle is disabled the manual fader's setting makes no real difference anyway. So is there a way to set a hot parameter to a desired value on the enabling/disabling of a toggle (which is maybe the broader question)? Am I going about this the wrong way? thanks, IP: Logged | |

You could try making the SoundToGlobalController value be something like: [LFO] L + !ManualValue In the LFO, multiply the desired LFO frequency by a manual control switch: (1 - !ManualControl) * !FreqLow This way, when you select ManualControl, the LFO stops whereever it is in the LFO waveform cycle and you can use the ManualValue fader to move around the controller value. You could then bring the ManualValue fader back to zero and deselect the ManualControl toggle to return to the LFO control. IP: Logged | |

Thanks! That works even better than what I was thinking of. Now I can nudge the value of the LFO fader even when the manual control is toggled off. The only little bug is that it seems to jump the first time you move the manual fader. Not too big a deal, though. IP: Logged | |

The manual control is always active. It's just that you freeze the LFO at its current amp value by setting its Frequency to zero. IP: Logged |
