Samelot

Hello, I've been trying to come up with a more hands free setup for using Reaper. In this patch, my pitchbend is turning on a metro, and the strength of the pitchbend signals the metro to speed up / speed down.

I'm sure that there are ways in which I could have make this same patch a lot neater; if anyone can suggest some obvious no-no's, i'd be happy to hear them.

Can anyone direct me to any other patches that turn the pitchwheel (or a single knob) into a curved / accelerated (perhaps, exponentially curved) output ? Not sure if I'm using the right language to describe what I'm looking for, I hope you get the idea..

Cool that you share your work to get input from others. Two things that you can do (Max is really wonderful in this regard!). There's a [bendin] object, so you only have to tell it which machine is going to be read from, much like [midiin]. The other, and more to the point of your question, is that [scale] already has an exponential parameter built-in! Be sure to set its classic attribute off, because that gives the most sensible reading in my opinion. You can experiment with the best exponential value for your purpose. Keep an eye open for the classic attribute, because it turns on again when you change the exponential parameter.

Nice one - you can do @classic 0, that way it'll stick.
