Prediction node

Predictive Modulator

Learns a small model of one modulator you patch in, then keeps that motion going on its own once learning stops. Draw a gesture once and it carries on in the same spirit.

What it does

Predictive Modulator is a prediction node: it guesses where a value or a phrase goes next and drifts around that guess. It takes control signal in and gives control signal out.

Try it

Learn a few seconds of a knob move, stop, and it keeps wandering in the same way.
