Interpolate channel node
Treats its multiple-inputs as keyframes and interpolates between them.
This CHOP treats its multiple-inputs as keyframes and interpolates between them. The inputs are usually single-frame CHOPs like those produced by a Constant CHOP. The Interpolate CHOP first sorts the input CHOPs in time (without shifting them) and interpolates between them to fill the gaps.
The number of channels in the output is the same as the number of channels in the first input.
If a channel is missing in an input, and Match By is set to Name, it is treated as if there is no keyframe at that frame for that channel, and the interpolation occurs between CHOPs before and after that frame.
When the graph is displayed as timebars, and you click on the black lines of the Interpolate CHOP time bar which represent the inputs of the CHOP, you can drag the line to change the time of that input. It goes to that input and changes the value if its “start” parameter, so you can re-time the keyframes.
When you Shift-click on a black line, the current CHOP changes to the corresponding input, so you can edit its values.
This CHOP has Sample Rate Match options in the Common page.
Parameters
Shape | The shape of the interpolation curve.
| ||||||||||||
Overlap Priority | If an input is not a single frame, and if there are overlaps in the input CHOPs, an option is used to resolve the conflict.
