Would love to see something like StepicVST within CW

No more drawing complex envelopes ?

Thoughts?

(I'm searching the forums to see if anything similar has been requested -- so forgive if duplicated!)

so, using a step sequencer to replace [drawing] envelopes? or are you intimating that you want to see a more advanced sequencing built-in to CW?

[torhan]

Yes -- for advanced modulation stuff. I guess it's like taking some of the capabilities of CW's Step Sequencer and making available to the other clips/views. (I almost exclusively work in PRV.)

Here's a good video on its capabilities:

so comparable to say Xfer Records Cthulhu or Scaler 2? using it as a controller to n# of MIDI tracks.

Cakewalk's own Step Sequencer already has some of these features built in. If you poke around in Cakewalk's dusty corners there are many cool things. I found out about these features by accident, searching in the Ref. Guide for information about the plug-in parameters randomizer.

Notice all the things you can sequence, including to my great surprise when I found it, Step Play Probability. Yes, a built-in randomizer, with probability settings. I haven't tried it yet, but it looks like you can do any CC value you want:

I posted in the Tutorials subforum about a couple of Cakewalk's randomization features:

Yes, I mentioned that above -- hoping they make it somehow available to the Piano Roll view as well. I guess it's worth messing around with to see if fits my workflow ?
