B.Oops is a multi-effect plugin controlled by step sequencer patterns. Just two weeks are gone since the last release. But there are a lot of new features. Also thanks to Chris "Airwindows" Johnson and the ACE makers. What's new: * Faster * New effects: ** Reverb ** Galactic reverb ** Infi...

I don't know how it's implemented, but Bitwig's stock pitch shifter sounds very granular (it only has a grain size and a semitone setting), but it only introduces a negligible amount of latency (it reports to not introduce any latency, but when adding 512 of them in series and it feels similar to 1...

Frequency domain-based pitch shifters using FFT can deal with latencies of less than 1 ms. But they are hungry for CPU speed. More hungry than my WSOLA approach in B.Shapr. And much too slow for up to 12 slots. I think.

Cool 8) , but is there still some place for new effects. I'm waiting for a pitch shifter! Funny, I had a similar discussion just a few days ago. The limitation is the latency produced by a pitch shifter. Initially I wanted to make plugin that adds no latency. Thus, only zero latency effects are all...

A new version of the LV2 glitch effect sequencer plugin B.Oops is out now. What's new: * Up to 16 MIDI-controlled patterns (tabs) * Import / export patterns * Build B.Oops in your native language * Add language packs: EN, DE * Store non audio-relevant working data in plugin state (like actual workin...

Hi, after weeks of hard work I just released the first official version of a new sound effect plugin. B.Spacr is a unique LV2 effect plugin that enables a clear and brilliant audibility of your music production. B.Spacr is suited for any kind of music, including rock, funk, pop, rap, and electronic ...

What about user/musician benefits? Performance differences are small and mainly depend on the host implementation (as mentioned before). With one notable exception. The plugin scanning. If you have a big VST library (I only have some few), re-scanning may take a wile. LV2 re-scanning is much faster...

Main disadvantages of LV2 - very steep learning curve. You have to do and learn a lot before your plugins will get properly functioning[...] I heard it a lot from others. Especially from non-FOSS DAW programmers complaining about the LV2 documentation. I didn't have any problems with it. And please...

Steinberg made big improvements with VST3. And they make sense. Many clear disadvantages of VST2 are resolved (resize, multiple MIDI ports, ...). Including licensing (VST3 now with GPL3 option). But the painful forcing of developers to switch away from VST2 will always stay in my mind. One advantage...

Ardour dropped such feature, and Element too.

I read that Reaper will NOT load LV2 ui:GtkUI plugins (e.g., Calf). No surprise as Reaper already loads GTK3.

LV2 support is just added to the developers branch (odd minor version numbers). It's labelled as "experimental". Reaper seems to use a fully new environment for LV2 plugins. Not based on lilv. First tests produced a lot of problems. Especially segfaults. But keep in mind it's "experim...

6 seconds are much more than @unfa using zrythm pre-alpha with surge lv2.

The sample browser should keep the last sample settings (selection start / end) if re-opened. Thanks for your FR. Now implemented into the new release 1.2.4 https://github.com/sjaehn/BOops/releases . Also enabled change of dials and sliders by typing the value. Ardour users should enable "allo...

I pushed a new release of the LV2 audio chopper plugin B.Choppr (successor of B.Slizr). Now you can link different instances of the plugin via shared data, too.
