Re: Absent friends....?

I'll tip back an imaginary flagon of ginger ale for those who are no longer with us... Some that come to mind are TAERSH, Lyberta, 42low (anybody remember those conversations? I think they're all deleted now), and recently of course that charming young Italian sofia-m who didn't actually exist :lol:

Re: Sustained dilemma

14 seconds sustain seems plenty long enough for any arrangement I would ever make.

Re: My free SFZ pianos 2.0 stable release

Hi sofia-m ! I've been reading your updates for a while. I finally downloaded the 1.0 versions of these last week. What are the new features in 2.0? From what I can tell, the simulated half pedal and simulated incremental soft pedal are new. Are the samples mostly the same, with updates to the size ...

Re: Plugin development philosophy

GMaq or anybody else who uses TAP Tubewarmth or Calf Bass Enhancer, do you tend to set it for more tube-style or tape-style saturation, or somewhere in the middle, or do you use a variety of settings depending on context? Calf Bass Enhancer uses the terms "2nd" and "3rd" harmoni...

This is one and proven to work.

I was also going to suggest this one but @sjzstudio beat me to it.

Re: Ardour 8 released

A bit off topic, ones saw a demonstration, an Atari ST with Cubase, a Yamaha Dx7 and a drum computer. The person made a drumloop, and we said it sounded very mechanical. He then right clicked something in Cubase and suddenly it sounded like a life drummer. :shock: I want that on Linux :) How hard c...

Re: [ANN] Bedroom Studio early preview

Ooh, fun! How did you decide upon the math to use for your effects? For example, I noticed that your distortion function uses tanh() twice, and your warmth function uses sin(). Can you recommend any resources to learn more about specific functions used in DSP?

Re: Ardour 8 released

There's a lot on their (his?) plate Two people do the bulk of Ardour development; the above dawhead is the primary developer. Considering the magnitude of the project (hundreds of thousands of lines of C/C++), they have to be extremely judicious about which features they prioritize. So yes, patches...

Re: Plugin development philosophy

LV2 ttl has doap:name field which exactly contains a name of plugin Wow, look at that, it actually worked. I was looking at Dragonfly Hall Reverb, I didn't see it the manifest.ttl and the DragonflyHallReverb_ui.ttl, but in the DragonflyHallReverb_dsp.ttl file there is the doap:name field, and modif...

So not simply editing a .ttl file somewhere?

The LV2 ttl does not specify the plugin name and VST3 doesn't have a ttl file. I'm not certain about other plugin formats.

Which reminds me of a question I haven't yet asked: is there a way for a user to rename plugins?

Sure, if you have the source code. Just modify it and recompile. Free as in freedom fries.

Re: Plugin development philosophy

So I could name it Revenant Lich Vampire Convention and then it would show up right along in alphabetic order with the other plugins that start with "Reverb ..." In fact, it would alphabetically arrive in front of all the other reverbs and as such people would be more likely to click on it...
