Hi there,

I am about to propose a patch for the "distort0r" effect
adding a new 'velocity' parameter controlling ... the speed
of the sinus wave.

Without a default value set, there is a kind of "visual





The default value in your patch is 1.0, and we require params to have default values now.

to reach the current (v1.5) visual effect of distort0r

should be set to 80% (0.8).

According to a strict reading of this description, set it to 0.8 to preserve the current behavior. You should strive not to break people's existing projects and scripts.

Or maybe i can add a second (bool) parameter :
False - old behavior (based on time)
True - new behavior (based on velocity) .

2) What do you think/prefer?

I think the bigger compatibility issue is that your f0r_update now ignores the "time" call argument. Perhaps you should add a parameter to choose the old versus new behavior (default to old). Then, you can have a more preferable or suggested default for Velocity.
