New Plugin: Pluckface

http://builder.mod.audio/install/88xuq_hb

Here is Pluckface. It’s an onset rate detector. It senses how fast you are playing notes, and outputs a control voltage you can use to modulate other effects.

It gives visual feedback to help you adjust the sensing and output to suit your playing, and has an auto range option. It outputs a smoothed pluck rate, an inverted version of that, and a trigger for each pluck.

You can adjust a mixture of methods for counting the plucks, to get slow moving averages or fast envelope-like decays.

And an annoying face blinks each time it senses you pluck.

Through making the interface I realised it would have been better to give visual accessibility a higher priority alongside aesthetic and logical design - so that’s a lesson for next time, and apologies for any lack of clarity. Luckily the Mod system itself includes higher contrast rollover popup labels.

Any problems or suggestions, let me know…

Anyway, the user interface of your plugin is just dope!!! :heart_eyes:

And the idea is clever too.

Thanks for sharing.

yeah, love that interface. It’s like 2000’s car stereo meets Fallout plus added weird. Good work!
