Hey

Thanks for the feedback!

Adding more of anything that is already in the plugin (randomizers, grain streams, etc.) is mostly limited by UI screen space. 8 randomizers can be great in some cases but take up a lot of space when not used. I have some ideas for UI improvements, maybe letting you add more randomizers (up to a reasonable limit) and remove the things that are not in use would be a nice solution?

Bypassing modulations on each parameter is something I would also find useful, maybe I’ll add it some point

UI space is not about size but about combinatorics.
Oh yes, the idea that unused elements can be hidden was the first when I saw a plugin :)


Daniel, i like the plugin so much that I decided to help with the development of the interface. I hope you will like it.  The design is not a pixel to pixel, I only had a screenshot. And this is not necessary, because you have a vector. I did not even adjust the font one to one. Did not spend time on that you will redo anyway. Just picked up a similar one. It is a scheme. And yes, i've added three more randomizers without increasing the size of the interface or reducing the size of the elements, sorry :)  The plugin is the same body and element size fully open. And much smaller in minimal variant. And the plugin needed better color coding. Now it has.


Have a look

Nice! collapsing stream and modulation rows definitely makes sense. I also had requests for something like this before so I think this would be a nice addition.

Regarding the macro placement I want to keep these together with the rest of the modulation system (things with similar purpose and interaction) to make the UI easier to understand.

The color editor: I see your point but I prefer to keep things simple. Sure, a decent color scheme is important, maybe even light/dark versions but making this fully customizable is definitely not top priority at the moment

The modulator dots are not a bad idea but probably would not work too well with the modulation polarity buttons and I’m not sure how things would fit if you assign many modulators to one knob.

The +/- buttons and the lines for grouping in/out/adsr knobs are great Thanks for sharing your ideas!

Just made one more layout. I like this one much better.
