control

control — Configurable slider controls for realtime user input.

Description

Plugin opcode in control.

Configurable slider controls for realtime user input. Requires Winsound or TCL/TK. control reads a slider's value.

Syntax

kres control knum

Performance

Note that this opcode is not available on Windows due to the implimentation of pipes on that system

knum -- number of the slider to be read.

Calling control will create a new slider on the screen. There is no theoretical limit to the number of sliders. Windows and TCL/TK use only integers for slider values, so the values may need rescaling. GUIs usually pass values at a fairly slow rate, so it may be advisable to pass the output of control through port.

Examples

See the setctrl opcode for an example.
