What's a MetaNode?

A MetaNode (meta meaning greater, or larger than) is how Vue groups functions and graph setups into one controllable node. MetaNodes can range from a simple numeric entry to extremely advanced control setups. Everything you see in the function editor is a node, a way to calculate and transmit data.
