Is this the same with anyone else?

It's working fine for me on v6.08. What's the problem you're having?

The filters aren't evolving (the balls arent moving). This sucks!

Is this when a song is playing? I noticed they don't move when you're only inputing via a MIDI device.

im so retarded

I guess it obviously needs the tempo-based information

i amaze myself sometimes.

Don't feel bad, I only know now because I've done the same thing dozens of times.

I must admit to almost erasing Minion when I first tried it out...it lost volume so easily and seemed to not filter on alot of settings. But I persevered one day, and determined to find if it could actually be useful, simply because the GUI is so pretty - it's a great distraction.

I found out you have to use it a bit more carefully is all - it just seems to filter so strongly that big swings filter out too many frequencies - and also I found out how to disable individual filters. Once I'd sussed that out - I found out it was capable of some good effects, and was alot more usable if you're filtering something you're happy to compress alot to bring the volume back up. I do wish it had a few more parameters to apply the LFOs to though.

I think I nearly deleted a very capable filter - and it sure is good to look at

Still not sure about using it on many instruments. But on drums (where the source tends to be a bit more regimented) it can do wonders for mangling. Nice if it could apply LFOs to things like bit depth, or an overdrive insted of the rather harsh distortion, or a comb filter - that would make it alot more esoteric - like a beefed up Mysteron thingy (Is it called Mysteron? That bouncy ball plugin in SX...)

I could imagine Minion set up with 4 impOSCar filters

...now that would be sweet.

On pads and crazy distorted basses alike, it adds great evolution.

Anyone managed to get the 4-out version working in FL?

Thought as much. Oh well. Off to see whether it works in eXT.

Minion wont work with FL Studio 6
