Feature request: Logarithmic law for audio faders + fine adjustment + relative mode

VST Live
1

I’ve just realized that VST Live doesn’t use a log law for audio faders. I’m a bit perplexed as why this is.

Anyway, I would request that this at least would be an option. The linear law that is used now, basically makse the bottom 50% of the fader travel superfluous.

I also very much miss fine adjustment by mouse - say, click+shift, as in e.g. Cubase.

:smiley:

Edit:
While I’m at the issue of faders, could we please have a “relative mode” for fader movement (like in e.g. Cubase). The default (and only) setting in VST Live is “jump mode”. I honestly find the “jump” behavior unsettling and somewhat dangerous. You’re only a single click away from toal disaster (e.g. going from -80 to +6 dB).

I’ll sign off with two smileys now

:smiley: :smiley:

… it’s already on our feature list.

… oh, we’ll add that.

… yes, we’ll add it.

Thank you for the feedback,

Nice - I really appreciate it. You’ll get three smileys for this answer
:grin: :grin: :grin:

Another vote for a “Relative mode” option for continuous controllers. Thanks!

Will VSTL now work with relative mode messages from controllers such as Arturia Keylab Mk3?

I’m looking to eliminate the jumps I experience when changing volumes in a live scenario.

Thanks

Hi @Spork ! got this complain and FR. from other pro users (non forum users). Could you please check where it stuck since Juli 2024? :slight_smile:

At least CMD (I think that’s the MacOS key for “slow fader” under Cubase too) for slow fader movements first, that is probably just a few lines, thereafter log law I guess :slight_smile:

it uses log law for values, it don’t VISUALIZE fader level zoomed in on the section most useful…

we need more fader “space” from 0 to -15 as most mixes will be there.

Exactly, my bad, “the visualization” of the GUI is the correct expression, exactly, the same log scaling is missed on fader-scaling
