Hi ! I'm Paul, new here.
I love MPT (old version) but it doesn't have a param editor like OpenMPT. So I decided last week I would make one myself to manage IT effects, and now there it is :
VolFX Manager.
Update : version 0.4.3 (10/05/2009)XP version (1Mo) : VolFX Manager 0.4.3Vista version : VolFX_Manager_0.4.3_Vista.rarSeven version : VolFX_Manager_0.4.3_seven.zipI thought some of you may be interested in using it too, it works with ModPlug or OpenMPT, only in the IT format (maximum 256 rows) :

snapshot with MPT :
How to use it ?* Copy a track in ModPlug Tracker (Ctrl C).
* Click
IN : PASTE in VolFX Manager.
* Select the effects you want to edit : v, p, Z(00-7F), Z(80-FF), O, X, V, and draw multiple envelopes on top of the track.
* Click
OUT : VOLFX (or hit Enter) and paste the edited track in ModPlug Tracker.
Features :* editing restrictions : EVERY ROWS/1ST-or-2ND EVERY 2/NOTES ONLY
1ST EVERY 2 (or 3, or 4) is usefull to mix two (or more) effects on the same column.
* other effects can be protected or not.
* Select only one instrument (1-199) to be edited.
* Select only one note (C0-B9) to be edited (usefull for drum-kit instruments).
* Z(00-7F) and Z(80-FF) are considered like 2 independent effects.
* you can select a maximum for Offset.
* Save and load your edited tracks (without the notes). Usefull to quickly try different things.
* the window is resizable and can stay on top, usefull to integrate it inside the ModPlug window.
* F4 for fullscreen.
* Randomize the current effect (1-100 percent).
* Erase the current effect.
* Define a function to set the values of the current effect :
variables :
x = number of the row (0 to max 255)
y = current effect's values (0 to 64 or 0 to 255).
Examples :
40 --> (all values = 40)
2*y --> (double all values)
4*x --> fade in)
16*sin(x*pi/16) + 32 --> (sine centered on the value 32)
y; if x<32 y:=10*sqrt(x) else y:=64--x --> (more in the help file)
Update : version 0.4.3 (10/05/2009) :
Right click menu :

PITCH ENVELOPE : Creates an instrument envelope from the notes and rythm of the current track. This can be used as an arpeggiator for the pitch envelope.
How to use it :
- The maximum number of notes is 12. The length of the envelope is the same as the length of the track.
- You must choose the speed of the envelope (1 is for A01 replay speed and means one row equals one tick, 2 for A02 means one row equal 2 ticks, etc... 6 by default).
- The first note must be on the first row of the track.
- The reference note is C-5, the lowest possible is G#3, the highest is E-6.
- Go to the instrument editor of ModPlug to paste this envelope as pitch.
*
STRETCH ENVELOPE : This will stretch the time coordinates of the current instrument envelope contained in the clipboard. All coordinates are rounded to the nearest integer.
How to use it :
- Copy an instrument envelope from ModPlug and select Stretch Envelope in VolFX.
- Choose the ratio you want to apply : from 0 to 1 is faster, more than 1 is slower.
- You can write fractions to be more accurate (5/6, 4/3, etc...).
Example :
If your envelope is suited for A06 replay speed but you want to change to A05, you can write the following ratio : 5/6.
VolFX is made with Game Maker (hence the 1Mo), and I still don't know wether the Vista version works or not (it should). I just finished it, so it's far from fully tested, sorry. Tell me if you find any bug, or if you like it but need other features. (sorry for the engrish).
Great forum by the way, very useful !
