Modulators node
Constant
Outputs one fixed, unmoving value — exists because math-utility nodes only take other modulators as input, so this supplies a literal number.
What it does
Constant is a modulator: it makes a moving value that can drive any control on the canvas. It has no input and gives control signal out, so it starts a chain.
Try it
Use it as a fixed offset added to an LFO to keep a modulation from ever reaching zero.

Controls
Every control with a range can be driven by a modulator, a note, an audio level or a sketch.

|---|---|---|
| value | 0 to 1 | 0.5 |
