Install
Close DAWs before replacing the VST3. Use the package instructions for user-local or global installation, reopen the host and rescan. The Standalone candidate is a separate executable.
v0.1 candidate manual
MiniSjammie
Compact filter effect for fast filtering, drive and synced or audio-reactive Motion. This manual follows the current 17-parameter Windows x64 VST3 and Standalone candidate.
First movement
Quick start
- Load MiniSjammie as an audio effect.
- Choose LP, HP, BP or Notch and set Cutoff.
- Add Resonance and Drive carefully.
- Choose Clean, Warm or Bite.
- Raise Motion and Depth, then choose LFO, Envelope or Hybrid.
- Enable Sync and pick a Division when movement should follow the DAW.
- Level-match with Output and Mix.
HOST SYNC
With Sync on, Division follows host BPM. Available divisions are 1/16, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1 Bar and 2 Bar.
State and presets
All 17 parameters participate in saved state. The current project contains 20 factory presets; exact public preset notes will freeze with the release package.

Other hostsFL Studio remains the next manual host check. Standalone is built but still needs a manual audio-device sanity test.
Troubleshooting
Movement not moving?
Raise Motion and Depth, confirm a Motion Source, and check Sync/Division or free Rate. For envelope movement, feed the plugin an audible input signal.
