[feature] Amaranth: I'd love to see an independent grain rate knob #110

Closed autotel closed 5 months ago

autotel commented 5 months ago

First off, thank you so much for all these plugins, they're all so good sounding and fun to use! I can't wrap my head around on how you managed to create them! hats off.

Here the feature request: The amount of grains triggered per second are a product of "overlap" and "size". However, I've found myself wanting to slide up the grains per second without increasing overlap or decreasing size. A dedicated rate knob might allow some additional expressions with Amaranth.

Hey, thanks! :)

That's kind of what the tiny toggle next to overlap does. When you select that it switches to an absolute distance between firing grains.

The issue with this mode is the reason I initially went with overlap / size, which is that you run out of grains relatively quickly.

That said, I could see if I can optionally bump the grain count a bit.

I just pushed a version that allows a much higher grain count (4 times as much). Note that it relies on a newer version of reaper though (since I used the JSFX preprocessor).

amazing! thanks for checking it :)
