I spent a fair amount of time, yesterday, working on some sliders.
-=-=-
About time I got around to this!!
You can change the sound waveform.
Tweak the two extents (left = start, right = end)
You can move the midpoint by clicking in the middle bit, and change a few more settings for how the midpoint is used.
The bottom half is the ADSR envelope, and that seems to function ok, though it can be a little jumpy at times. Needs a bit more work, I think.
Either that or an enforced limit to the length of a sound.. ?
Hmm.
But, yeah, it's mostly functional and will always copy changes to the output text in the clipboard.
Next I need to add a bunch of presets and random buttons so you can open it up, click a few randomisation buttons and (hopefully) have a nice sound ready to pop into your game.
Woot!
.. Oh and change the text at the top, too. Don't forget that, Jay!
I'll try to finish this feature off today, and get it all uploaded at some point... If I can muster the energy! Honestly, I'd much rather be playing the latest No Man's Sky update, but who has time for that!!!?

Sliders sliding up and down,
Tweakers tweaking all around.
Set the dial and tune it in,
Then start the whole thing once again.

Int. Mrs Thompson's Driveway
[Mrs Thompson is polishing her car, still with traces of sticky residue]
Mrs Thompson: [muttering] Three washes and it still smells of fizzy pop...
[Dave bounds over enthusiastically]
Dave: Morning Mrs T! Still working on the car?
Mrs Thompson: No thanks to you and your contraption.
Dave: Oh, the Effervescent Engine? Want me to give it another go?
Mrs Thompson: NO!
Dave: Oh. I could modify the seven-digit pressure system-
Mrs Thompson: You've done quite enough damage.
Dave: But coke's a natural cleaning agent!
Mrs Thompson: Please. I don't want to hear about your Coke addiction.
Dave: Did you know Cola can remove rust from pennies? [produces a can from his jacket]
[Green appears from around the corner]
Green: Morning Dave. Morning, Mrs Timpson.
Dave: Hey, Greenie. I was just explaining my cleaning algorithm!
Green: That sounds great. Um. How about we leave Mrs Timpson to her car cleaning.
Mrs Thompson: Yes, that sounds like a great idea.
Dave: Alright. I'll pop over later, see how you're getting on. Let me know if you need more effervescence.
[Dave and Greenie head back to Dave's house]
Dave: Gosh, everyone loves me 'round here.
Green: I'm sure they do, Dave.
Dave: Wait! I haven't told you about my new keyboard purchasing method!
Green: What?
[End credits as Dave excitedly rushes Greenie towards the house.]
