This is not the same as DAW-wide modulation options. This is just Arturia's version of other multi-effects plug-ins like Infiltrator, etc. (unless I am mistaken? if so sry!) It's all self-contained to one plug-in. DAW modulation options give EVERY plug-in the modulation possibilities that these multi-effect plug-ins offer.xbitz wrote: ↑Sun Apr 14, 2024 6:09 am Yep, yep, the native modulation eats up the CPU under Live, but for me, Arturia has saved it, Efx MOTIONS options are already beyond the limit of healthy modulation possibilities
good stuff
and the other is the SSL 360°, so you don't have to throw in mixing-related plugins because AL now has a mixer
Even plug-ins that offer their own modulation options, for example, like alot of the Fabfilter stuff does, there is no reason to use the included onboard modulation when you can go way deeper with DAW integrated modulation. Like modulating the filter cutoff of Fabfilter Volcano, and having that same modulation affect the drive of another distortion plug-in placed before Fabfilter Volcano. Or modulating instruments in parallel on the same track, crossfading between them, yet having both instruments having similar parameters being modulated by the same modulator to tie them together thematically. The entire signal chain is open to integrated musical possibilities like this.
I'll give another brief example; Still to this day one of my favorite algo reverbs is the Lexicon PCM Native bundle. I love the sound/algo's of them. Anyways, there's a nifty "tail width" slider on them that I always put to use. Bitwig has breathed new life/functionality into these reverb plug-ins because now I can make that fader move musically with every note I play, so I can use the Lexicon verbs as a truly musical and integrated option of a particular synth sound I'm designing.
Having functional, seemingly unlimited DAW modulation literally made me re-think the way I look at any plug-in and it's potential applications/uses. Make sense?
