Macro NumBox

A draggable, typeable number box with its own min/max/step range — for a performance control where you want to see and dial in an exact value rather than eyeball a knob's position.

What it does

Macro NumBox is a macro control: a knob, slider or pad you play by hand and wire to many things. It has no input and gives control signal out, so it starts a chain.

Try it

Set its range to match an LFO's rate in Hz for precise, typed-in tempo control.
