Your first effect: Gentle Tremolo
Build a tremolo with two controls: modulation rate and effect depth.
Open Creator
- In VLTone, open View → Creator and create a new project. Input, Output and Interface are already on the canvas.
- Use the library or Tab to add Gain, Mix and LFO. Arrange the audio nodes from left to right, with LFO and Interface below.
Connect the two branches
- Input / Output → Gain / Audio. Gain / Output → Mix / B.
- Input / Output → Mix / A is the dry branch. Mix / Output → Output / Audio.
- LFO / Output → Gain / Gain. Set LFO to Sine, Rate 1.8 Hz, Amount 0.5, Offset 0.5. Gain will move between 0 and 1.
Input
One signal feeds two branches: dry and processed.
Select a node to trace its connections. This diagram explains processing; it does not play audio.
Expose the controls
- Select Interface. Name the module Gentle Tremolo. First control: Rate, unit Hz, range 0.1–10, default 1.8, logarithmic scale.
- Second control: Depth, range 0–1, default 0.35. Rate → LFO / Rate, Depth → Mix / Mix.
- Save the .vltcreator and press Compile. Add the installed mini-module to a Channel Strip and audition it. Depth = 0 keeps the dry signal.
