+ Description
+ -------------------------
+   SimpleSide is an audio plugin that uses a curve to change volume
+ over a temp-synced period. Think of it like a drawable volume LFO.
+ 
+ Features
+ -------------------------
+ - Adjustable rate that temp-syncs with host.
+ - Adjustable ramp-up or ramp-down for each sub-curve.
+ - Unlimited number of sub-curves.
+ - Wet/dry mix knob to adjust the blend of the plugin with the original
+   signal.
+ - Sample-accurate automation of rate and blend.
+ 
+ Usage
+ -------------------------
+ - Right click/cmd click a location to add a point.
+ - Right click/cmd click a handle (dot) to remove the curve that lies
+   to the right of the handle.
+ - Click and drag a handle to move it.
+ - Hold shift while dragging a handle to lock horizontal/vertical
+   movement axis.
+ - Drag up/down on a curve to adjust its ramp up/down.
+ - Alt+click a curve to reset its ramp value to zero.
+ - Hold shift while dragging a curve for more precise ramp adjustment.
+ - Drag rate readout up/down to increase/decrease in multiples of two.
+ - Drag blend knob horizontally or vertically to adjust wet/dry mix.

+ About Me
+ -------------------------
+   Hey, my name is Armando Montanez! I'm currently studying at the
+ University of California, Merced for Computer Science and Engineering.
+ I first began audio production in 2012, and like every bedroom producer,
+ was faced with the high cost of most audio software. As I've grown as a
+ producer, mix engineer, and software developer I've decided to make
+ it my mission to offer a few free/cheap plugins that I feel every
+ producer/mix engineer should have in their toolkit.
+ 
+   I'm still new to the plugin development scene, so if you find any
+ bugs or have suggestions, please feel free to contact me! Donations
+ are very appreciated as well; they help motivate me to continue investing
+ my time into continued development and new plugins!
+ 
+   Thank you for taking your time to read this, enjoy the plugin!

+  another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty.

+ AKA more free plugins are on the way!
+ 
+ Hope you enjoy! \(^.^)/
