Tempo Synced Envelope Controller

[Spekular]

A new controller that:

• Allows the user to draw any arbitrary envelope via a graph (Improved Waveshaper / Spline-based graph replacement #4367)
• Syncs to multiples of one beat by default, rather than providing a freq/time input

Would be immensely useful. It would for example do everything Kickstart does and more (edit: assuming the midi side chain BaraMGB mentioned is implemented), but natively (and for free).

This is technically possible today with the existing LFO controller, but it's cumbersome. I think it'd be best this were a separate plugin rather than a replacement/upgrade for the LFO controller.

EDIT: I won't assign myself yet, but if no one is working on this by the time my current PRs are closed, I'll give it a shot.

Do you think it could have a midi side chain that triggers this?

[Spekular]

That's a good idea, it'd be extra flexible that way. I still think there ought to be a way to use it without any additional input, but I like the idea of manual input as an alternative to the "automatic" mode.

Anyone still working on this? Would love to have this option for LFO as opposed to just HZ

[Spekular]

The improved waveshaper it would rely on hasn't been merged, so I never started work on it. If you want to set the frequency of the existing LFO controller to something in line with your BPM, right click the FREQ knob and choose a note length from the "Tempo Sync" dropdown.

Ahhh, that is the exact feature I was looking for, right under my nose. Thanks!
