Contour — Ambient Morph Synth

The composer plays each set of corners to you, and a sheet you bake reaches the plug-in without reloading it. • Tapping a mark always sounds. Once four notes were still ringing it went silent instead — and the ribbon moved to that mark anyway, so the mark looked half alive. • Composing a sheet plays it to you. Stop moving for a moment and you hear the corners you have landed on. Before, you had to hold a note down with one hand and steer with the other, and nothing on screen said so. • Dragging an axis is smooth. It was running the whole search again for every fraction of a millimetre your finger moved. • Brushing the axes no longer sends you back to the first combination. If the one you were listening to is still where it was, you stay on it. • Auditioning no longer leaves a note sounding for ever if the corners change underneath it. • A sheet you bake in the app shows up in the plug-in while the host is still running. It used to need the plug-in reloaded, and nothing said that either. • The host's preset list is the sheet list — Logic's Library, AUM's presets. It was empty before. • The marker on the plug-in's map follows automation. MAP X and MAP Y moved the sound and the marker stayed where the note started: the map saying one thing and your ears another, which is the one thing this instrument must never do. • Modulation keeps its depth however fast it runs. It used to grow shallower the quicker the LFO went, without you touching anything that says depth. • A finger on the plug-in's map tells the host it is being held, so the host's automation gets out of the way instead of fighting it. • The plug-in offers stereo only. A host could set it up with more channels than it has, and the extra ones carried whatever happened to be in the buffer. Thank you again to the same player, who wrote it down a third time.
