I'm working on some control functions and using the ramp: code a fair bit. I'm looking to add some spice and create variable curves for these ramps. Specifically something that starts faster and then slows down, or the opposite of this ... or something that starts slow, speeds up and then slows again, or the opposite of this.

What would be the simplest way to create these variable curve functions using the ramp: code?

For example using something like this as a starting point:

!Trigger ramp: 5 s

I'm looking to trigger the control functions with !Trigger so they are always on phase, and have some kind of !Scale slider that determines how much the curves are affecting the ramp.

I'm guessing this is simple to create, but my maths is pretty bad

Just found the solution to creating curves, it's already in the expressions library! Ooops

(!Slope ** (!Gate ramp: !DecayTime s) - 1 /
(!Slope - 1))

Another area to explore might be the into: arrays. You provide an array of input@output value pairs and then use an index to select which input/output pair to use. The values in between the specified pairs are linearly interpolated. For example:
