First, hats off and many thanks to the GR7 team because I've used previous versions, but the additions and enhancements in this one really kicked my usage in high gear. I've been looking for a better multi-FX to replace other ones as a SUPERSET, and for the most part, GR7 is covering those bases... and more. Some of my fave features include the random preset selector, the new tape effect, and being able to access most of the NI effects I already like without having to instantiate separate plugins. The overall "snappability" of the GUI is also a big plus.
I wanted to report something because it's not behaving: in the Noise Machine, there's an expert option to RELEASE, but here's the issue that makes it not useful for me. The description claims:
Release Adjusts the time it takes for the noise signal to decay to silence when played back in Trigger mode. Additionally, it adjusts the release time of the envelope follower when using Dynamics.
... which by "decay" I expect means a gradual tapering off, that's what I want! BUT instead, it ABRUPTLY cuts to nothing after X time, sounding very harsh and not allowing for smooth transitions between "noise" and "silence".
Also, since it has to do with Time, I'd expect the Release values to be shown in seconds instead of %. Like the Noise Gate component's Release... consistency!
This feels like a bug, or at least, there could be an option, like how the standard behavior of a noise gate has a gradual fade-out. And other noise tools I've used out there, so that the noise layer smoothly blends only when there's an active input.
@Eddie_NI you're been awesome on here — if you know more about this can you please chime in?
