Device Details

I havent yet gotten into M4L but effects like this, if it works ensure that I will get it.

Regards

It works :)
Maybe at some point I will make a youtube video demonstrating this little tool.

this is certainly a great little device because the chain selector fader in an effect group just does linear fades...

so in doing bass note sine tests, i noticed that the overall volume gets louder in the center... which parameter can be tweaked to adjust the curves of the fade?

also what would you recommend to getting rid of the glitches when fading quickly... maybe a line object?

thanks again for a useful little thang...

@ gamuso:
You need two tracks and put a CPfade on each of them, then on one track set it to A and on the other on B.
Assign one knob to both of the CPfade instances and use that to crossfade between the tracks.
Of course if you only have one track it will just fade out.
You could also do it with an audio rack, where you have two chains, each with a CPfade object.

@ offthesky:

I have tested it too with bass notes, and I found out that with some notes the volume drops in the middle, while with others it rises. So it must be a phase problem, causing a slight null or a peak in the middle.
I don't know how this can be solved yet, because I noticed that Max isn't 100% accurate with timing when running inside Live.

Maybe I'll add customisable fader curves in a future version. That is a little bit more complicated as it means there needs to be a kind of interpolation between different formulas. Right now it's based on a sine-function.

The glitches were caused by the line-object not working at audio-rate. I've made an update that fixes this (basically I replaced the [line 0.] with [line~ 0.]).

sorry but i don't understand how this works and what it's supposed to do

Brilliant! I crossfade between two layers all the time in racks, with this thing it now properly fades without the nasty volume dip! Thank you.

perfect

perfect anyway to make it so both devices stay at max untill it passes the halfway point?

lol no worrys had somthing midi mapped :P :P

Exactly what I was looking for, thanks!

Thanks for making this, man! It's a simple little thing that makes using the Push that much better. It's great how you can just look up a solution and someone, such as yourself, has provided it, free of charge. It works great.

Hey, that download link seems to be broken. Just FYI.

I want

Actually, disregard my previous statement. The link in the "URL (optional)" field remains broken, but the "download device" button below that appears to work.

(I haven't confirmed that the file does. Latest version is 13 years old. But you should be able to edit and troubleshoot, if needed)

@Efraim Thank you for CPfade and keeping it updated over the years.

Is there a way to use multiple pairs of it in a project? For example, "Pair 1: A/B", "Pair 2: A/B", etc. Each pair is independent and does not affect the others.
