Also: is it possible to set up a Block so that it comes with a set colour of cables? That would be nice.

Nope. Pretty sure its white only for ensembles, and user selectable for Racks.

Gee Bolle, you sure are a decent artists. These images look pretty cool. Some of my video games have a lot of shading which really brings out a three dimension perspective. Not sure if blender can add shading but it's a cool program. Have you tried lighting up a panel with a side lamp and using shadows behind the knobs and stuff. I think that would be super realistic. Oh, I got version 6.5 and yes, you do need the latest version of Native Access to get it. Thanks for the help!

I can light things any way i want to. But i choose to stick to the look as set out by Native Instruments/Efflam Le Bivic. It's better to have my Blocks look less than hyperreal, than to have them look out of place between other Blocks.

Makes sense, they blend in better with their surroundings like they are. I was only curious if blender could do that. I have a friend who makes surroundings for a VR headset and those are really cool. Pretty amazing how intricate Blender really is.

Beezlebaum OSC and FLT blocks now available on the User Library.

Added A/B modulation to the OSC wave shape control.

Beezlebaum FLT is the Blocks version of the Beezlebaum filter setup. A 24db/oct Ladder Filter with resonance gain compensation and pre- filter saturation/distortion.

@Bolle

Hi. Great work. Could you elaborate a bit more how to render the non-orthographic pots. I'd like to see if I can realize this in CInema 4D. Highly appreciated. Thanks.

I don't know about Cinema 4D, but in Blender you can render parts of the camera view. So, you have your camera and lighting all set up, and in camera view you drag a border around the object you want to render.

OK, thanks. That's not a Redshift feature in C4D. I need to approach it differently.

Working on something. Novarius.

Anybody have a good idea for achieving a pitch bend wheel that moves with mouse control as well as MIDI control?

EDIT: think i got it.

PitchBend and Mouse Area (Y axis) have the same values (4... -4). Works. All i have to do now is use a Multi Picture module for the graphics, and make sure the maths is right for the number of frames.

GUI finished.

The build is finished too, but i need to add some snapshots.

If you like virtual analog goodness: this thing sounds absolutely a ma zing.
