SPEAKER (VIBRATOR) BOX LEFT/RIGHT V3.1

I still think the current 'driving' schematic gives the best speaker response.

**Here is the new Speaker Box v3.2 which uses 8-frames made with Cinema 4D but I don't know yet how to set the center lighting for the center semi-sphere so that the movement of the speaker diaphragm shows more clearly. First time I am using Cinema 4D thus pardon my stupid effort. At least, to me, v3.2 made with Cinema 4D looks more realistic than the previous efforts. But since there is so little interest in this project I stopped developing it any further. Cinema 4D has quite a steep learning curve and to go through all that, just to do a small project like this with no interest, is not worth it.

TIMER STOPWATCH.

I needed this for an MP3 Player I'm working on to show the elapsed time on the progress bar when a song is played, but what if you have to "pause" the song then the timer stopwatch must also pause (not reset or keep on running) or else it will give an incorrect reading for the length of the song in minutes and seconds - thus, there is a start button, a stop/reset button and a pause/lap time button. I know this can be done in Ruby but I needed something quick and I took the lazy man's way out by using primitives - this was the easy part of the project, but the control triggers to automatically control this small schematic was a nuisance, to say the least.

**In version 1.1 I removed an unnecessary primitive i.e. "Float abs primitive" which accidentally slipped in. I wanted to use the "Integer Absolute primitive" but instead used the "Integer Data component" which in this instance carry out the same function. However, the previous version will still work it is just that it has an unnecessary component i.e. "Float abs primitive" in the wrong position as well.

Having just gone through a similar project ... I'm looking with interest at your solution.

Thanks Tiffy

FLOAT TRANSITION v2.0

I discovered two problems with the previous versions:

1) When the Input of the Float Transition was connected to the Output of a Knob it didn't trigger at the required value (However, when it was connected to a counter it functioned correctly. Must have been a primitive response issue), and

2) When you typed in new values in the "From" and "To" spaces it did send unwanted triggers.

In this version, both issues have been fixed.

4 x 3D-KNOB'S WITH POSITION RINGS:

I made these four 3D-Knobs and I tried Spogg's "Position Rings for Any knob" (Dynamic arc, or whatever you call it) on them. If you don't like the position rings you can change them (Colour, Dot, Solid etc), move them to a different position or even delete them...it is up to you.

Ctrl + LDo Click with the Mouse on the Knobs to 'jump' to Default Setting, the value which can be changed to your preference in the properties panel but is currently set to 0.5.

NOTE: I also made a Ruby version of Spogg's Position Rings but it is not included in this upload.

Very nice extension of my idea!

KNOB VECTOR PRIMITIVES (GENERAL-PURPOSE):

It is a general purpose knob which can be resized to almost any diameter by resizing its display window – done mostly with primitives…only the marker was done with Ruby since it provides more freedom of options.

One point of importance – I included on its Properties Panel a Zoom/Normal space. Currently, that space is not ‘ticked’ off with the mouse which means it is in Zoom mode. In Zoom mode the marker and outline line-thickness increase and decrease in relation to the knob diameter as it is resized. If that Zoom space is ‘ticked’ off with the mouse then the knob marker and outline line-thickness will not increase or decrease in relation to the knob diameter as it is resized.

To quickly set the knob to default position (currently set to 0.3), Hold down Ctrl + LDo Click with Mouse on the knob.

Thanks Tiffy !

Vector knob designs are very nice to work with, with the re-size ability.
