Compositing node
Invert
Mirrors an input modulator around a low/high pivot, so rises become falls and vice versa — and it still behaves correctly on signals that run outside the usual 0..1 range.
What it does
Invert is a compositing node: it layers, masks and routes pictures. It takes control signal in and gives control signal out.
Try it
Invert an LFO feeding one destination while the un-inverted LFO feeds another, so two parameters move oppositely together.
Inputs and outputs
Inputs
- control signal in
Outputs
- control signal out
Controls
Every control with a range can be driven by a modulator, a note, an audio level or a sketch.
| Control | Range or options | Default |
|---|---|---|
| in (no cable) | 0 to 1 | 0.5 |
| low | -4 to 4 | 0 |
| high | -4 to 4 | 1 |
