Unusable Engineering Slot Sequencers | How They Work

video upload by Unusable Engineering

"A walkthrough of the shared slot sequencer system added to all Unusable Engineering effects in version 1.3.0.

Depending on the plugin, the sequencer has four or eight slots. Each slot stores a different set of effect parameters, and the plugin can step or slew between those settings manually, using an internal clock, or in sync with the host.

This video covers:
editing and selecting slots
manual movement between settings
internal and host-clock stepping
Slew in free and clocked modes
copying and pasting slots
randomization
enabling and disabling slots
differences between individual plugins
and a bit of the philosophy behind it"

"Curves & Membranes has also gained a new oscillator mode called Node Mode.

The normal oscillator uses Bézier handles to shape its single-cycle waveform. In Node Mode those handles are replaced by vector points, which changes how the synth sounds and allows much deeper wave folding.

It gives the synth a noticeably more modern and aggressive side while still using the same one-oscillator architecture. Curves & Membranes also got a new Vel->Radius option, where incoming velocity can multiply the radius of its orbital modulators by up to 5x. That makes harder notes introduce more movement rather than just changing level or filter response.

There is also now a preset browser across the full lineup, along with some starting-point presets, version checking and a few smaller workflow and stability improvements.

The two freebies (Binaural Modulator and Cavitation Fractures) have also gotten updated with slot-sequencer, preset-system and some bug fixes.
