I was very curious about Loopmash FX. If I read correctly here on the forum some people thought it only worked on audio(tracks) But that’s not the case… it also works on midi/vst/group channels etc.
Automating the several effects is also very convenient.
Just add an automation track below your audio/instrument/group channel and you can draw a line to trigger the right effect in a group. You can choose Effect group 1 (tapestop/vinyl) Group 2 (stutter) etc… Then determine the height of the line to trigger the desired effect with all the way down set to bypass…
I’m very happy with loopmash. I don’t like assigning extra midi to trigger effects like it works with Effectrix. I myself use stutter and tapestop a lot so perhaps Loopmash is a better vst for me. Still testing a bit so not sure about it
Just wanted to let you know because I read a lot about it…
I don’t have 7.5 so I have to ask. When you do this automation, do you get the names of the effects in automation lane? (i.e if it’s 1/2 or 1/4 etc).
Was thinking on creating a VST Expression Map to map them as key-switches into the effect. That way you can get the names of the effects on the lanes, a bit like in the Glitch plugin.
So it definitely has it named. Cool!
You do, however, not see it on the automation curve itself (obviously). This shouldn’t really be a problem because each lane has only like 5 values so it’s easy to see.
Been fooling around the last few days and it’s pretty ok! Don’t think i’m returning back to effectrix…
But 1 disadvantage… If you use effects from all 5 groups… You get a lot of automation lanes… But it’s ok…
