Kerf Modulators

The panel

Open it from Extensions › Kerf Modulators: Show/hide panel. It is a real REAPER docker, so it docks, floats and remembers where you left it.

The Kerf Modulators panel showing plugin blocks of modulator slots, with the selected modulator editor beside a block
Fig. 1

Plugin blocks on a track. Each block holds up to twelve modulator slots, three at a time, with the selected modulator’s editor beside it.

The panel follows whichever track you have selected. Pick a track with plugins on it and its blocks appear. Pick one without any and the panel empties itself, so it never shows modulators from a track you are not looking at.

An empty slot shows a plus. Click it, pick a modulator, and its editor opens beside the block. The Modulators tab holds the blocks; the Settings tab holds preferences, the colour theme and your licence.

Every modulator carries the same row of controls in the same order, so it reads the same on all of them.
