AutoSlide


I started playing with MPE (MIDI Polyphonic Expression) for the first time quite recently and realized there was probably creative potential in it, even without the hardware to support it. Then I committed to a basically simple fundamental concept of "point-to-point ramps, some of the time" and realized that this could add quite a bit of sonic interest to otherwise banal MIDI passages, especially when you have a few instances in a row.
This is also the first device that I've included an Ableton Wavetable-style mod matrix imitation and a number of other jspainter tricks. Once they were in, these eyecandy bits were more gratifying than I ever wanted to admit they would be!
Maybe the one I like the most was the late realization that with some hackery you can actually show the red 'automation_state' dots in jspainter overrides to get a better, more "native" user experience in Live, which is something I always value.

Great job on this, both in taking advantage of the MPE pitch slides as well as the great UI with the moving dots. πππ
Thank you Michael, Much appreciated!
