This is my new plugin, basically an autofilter:

Mmmmm, that's yummy! Thanks acrobat!
Barely scratched the surface yet, but I just had a bit of a slap and pop of my bass using the envelope follower - sounds delicious, and took me no time at all to find a perfect envelope response - even for a 'reverse wah' sound ("haW-haW"?) - amazing how many envelope filters seem to struggle with that.
You've done a great job of presenting such a versatile range of modulation options too - things like the little routing arrow and envelope meter that are genuinely useful as well as pretty.
This definitely has a permanent home in my plugins folder! :)
Feel free to use any schematics and algorithms I post on the forum in your own designs - a credit is appreciated (but not a requirement).

Thanks, one point of strength you might notice is the stereo features, which are not trivial:
you can get a "pendance" on the stereo field for each dynamic and re-balance the signal before going to the outputs.. ;)

Thanks for sharing. Works great mate. And, yeh, there's something nice in that stereo field.
If I'm not in Reason, and need an autofilter, i always use the "classic" one, from Kjaerhus.
I'll have to think twice from now on.
Kind of missed access to presets on the front panel-
but I can see why you probably didn't bother,
Much more fun to tweak it and get your own... :)

Yeah you are right about missing the classic preset controls, but it's intentional, keeps minds clearer and
you can always have a FXB bank and FXP presets control from the host. It's a choice for this serie of effects. :)

Yeh, checked for that the first time. All good.

I like that approach. Forces the user to become "active" with your plug in,
and a relationship is formed.

been real busy so i couldn't work out what was new in this update.
Runs great anyway. :)

While playing it, in particular the panning controls, I got an idea for a new module in the X11.
A single panner at the end of the synth. Lots of ways to hook it up to mods and control it.

Thanks mate......maybe I should call it the "Acrobat Panner"....just to confuse people :D

ahah nice idea, you know seventies were the panning years, in those years the studio work was
generally still very simple and listening to lives and records of that time you can hear very rude pan-pots
across the stereo field! ah ah it was funny and people went crazy just for that basic trick! :D
