Playing around with the animation effects plugin I’m making, I’ll explain a bit of what is happening, but might need to make more of an in-depth video.
Red brush controls filter cutoff (brush strokes at the top of the canvas make the filter more open and brush strokes down the bottom make it more closed), blue and green are delay time/feedback (blue at the top makes the delays happen in short succession and at the bottom are more spaced apart and green at the top means longer, more drawn out delays and down the bottom the delay fades faster). There are other effects which I don’t use in this video, reverb, distortion and pitch shift, all work in the same way with going up and down on the canvas being the way to control them.
It only takes the last brush stroke you made as the basis for the effect control, so over time you end up with an animation that shows the history of what changes you have made. It’s all running as an effects plugin within Logic Pro, here I’m using the Synthstrom Deluge as a midi controller, controlling the Imagiro Celeste plugin.

Some more bouncing balls. Animating some delay in logic with the animation music effects plugin I’m building.
Blue = delay time (how long between belay hits), the top of the canvas is quick and bottom is slow.
Green = delay feedback (how long the delay lasts), the top of the canvas is long lasting and the bottom is short.
Red = filter cutoff (low pass filter). The top of the canvas lets more frequencies through and the bottom. Closes them off.
You can change the playback speed to change the speed of the modulation and create these really interesting soundscapes.

Lots of pops and clicks which I’m trying to iron out.
Red brush controls filter cutoff, blue and green are delay time/feedback, yellow and orange are reverb size/mix and you can change the playback speed, either free or synced to your project tempo. Very early days, and still working out lots of bugs. But it’s so fun to play around with, you can animate frame by frame like a traditional animation program, or draw while the animation is playing to automate create little animated lines. Depending on where you draw on the canvas the settings of the different effects will change. This is all running as a plug-in within Logic on an instrument track with a simple synthesiser plugin.

Playing around some more with my animation based music effects plugin.
Red brush controls filter cutoff, blue and green are delay time/feedback, yellow and orange are reverb size/mix and purple is drive and you can change the playback speed, either free or synced to your project tempo.

This is all running as an audio effects plug-in within Logic on an instrument track with Phaseplant and using my trusty @synthstrom deluge as a midi controller.
