Knob Response

Something I've wanted for forever and was hoping to see in 3.0 is the following. A knob response mode like Rel but one that scales to the min or max based on current knob position.

Assume param value range is 0-127

Here is how Rel works now: If the param is set to 32 and the knob is at position 64 then turning the knob to the max will get the param value to 96.

How I want Rel to work: If the param is set to 32 and the knob is at position 64 then turning the knob to max would get me to the full value (127) by mapping the knob range (64-127) to the param value range (32-127) meaning every 3rd value or whatever would be "skipped" but that's ok because as you get close to the max the "true" value of the knob would meet the "true" value of the param. Make sense?

The Little Phatty works this way and it's great because you get the best of all worlds. You get the full value range PLUS you get smooth transitions across param values.

I know you can somewhat accomplish this with the Snap mode but that forces you to turn potentially the opposite direction first before you can start tweaking and is prone to error during performance.

So - can one of you TI OS programmers maybe adopt this as your pet project and implement a "Scale" mode for knob response? Name your price!

Thanks!

Marc - is there a way to officially request this feature? I think I have in the past - ages ago though.

I'm digging 3.0 - excellent work on this OS!
