Hi all!
I watched this excellent video (1st video below) by @kindohm and have been feeling pretty inspired by the plyWith function. To that end, I started looking into custom functions to save some time writing code. @kindohm also has a super informative tutorial on writing custom functions (2nd video below) that I used to make the following:
let plyCato num amt = plyWith num (|* legato amt)
plyDown num amt = plyWith num (|* gain amt)
Here's a tldr/tldw for each function:
plyCato takes a sound and repeats it in increasing/decreasing increments determined by amt. In short, it creates a stuttery repeat trail for a sound.
plyDown does the same as plyCato but reduces/increases the gain instead of playback length.
I'd love to use this thread to share functions and help each other find new shortcuts to interesting sounds!
