Hi,Openmastering wrote:Nice setup @WforWoollyMammoth
I also have a Babyface Pro (among other RME soundcards) and I'm quite happy with it. Software monitoring works fine for me if I ever need to overdub.
I don't agree with you about free audio software being subpar. Setting up the a-compressor from ardour is as easy as setting up my hardware compressors. Calf plugins give you enough visuals. LSP plugins enough flexibility if you need to ask yourself if you need a linear phase filter or not. I use impulse response for my reverbs and it's not lacking anything. I can't say about algorithmic reverbs as I hardly use them. Except some plates for vocals but they never sound "real" anyway.
I bought all the DAWs and plugins you listed, (except Presswerk which is a dream compressor, I agree) and I went back to using exclusively free software (and diy hardware) for mastering. It's enough to get the job done.
Sorry if I come aggressive, it's definitely not meant this way. There are good reasons to use commercial softwares, I just went the route from free software because it's free(beer) to commercial software because I wanted to support the credibility of Linux as an audio platform, and back to free software because they are good enough to get a pro job done while being ethically on par with my beliefs.
Yes, I have. I sort of like it, but I should still subject it to more testing.milo wrote:Have you tried Dragonfly Reverb?WforWoollyMammoth wrote:The reverbs available for Linux aren't that great though and I've used WINE for the reverbs so far =/

Dragonfly Hall can be considered a descendant of Zita with a few additional features that make quite a difference:WforWoollyMammoth wrote:However, I'm under the impression that the "hall" version of it is just zita reverb with a different early reflections algo? Correct if I'm wrong with that description.
Thank you for your comments. I like the amount of control your plugin offers compared to other free-as-in-beer / free-as-in-speech Linux reverbs.Michael Willis wrote:Dragonfly Hall can be considered a descendant of Zita with a few additional features that make quite a difference:WforWoollyMammoth wrote:However, I'm under the impression that the "hall" version of it is just zita reverb with a different early reflections algo?

* The chorus parameters (mod, spin, and wander) give an effect of multiple reverb tails moving around.
* The crossover and multiplier dials give you the capability of defining three different frequency bands that have different decay times.
* Like you mentioned, it includes an implementation of Moorer's early reflection model, and you can select a percentage of the early reflections to feed into the late reverb. As far as I'm aware, Zita has no early reflection algorithm at all.
Depending on what you mean by "thin sounding", you can trying lengthening out the decay time of the low frequencies (dial up the Low Mult, and experiment with Low Cross), or you can try exaggerating the stereo width a bit higher than 100%.
Heh, you're right. For more context, Dragonfly Hall Reverb is mostly just Hibiki reverb in a nicer plugin (well, that's a bit oversimplified, but good enough for this conversation). Hibiki uses a modified Zita as the late reflection algorithm.WforWoollyMammoth wrote:On the early reflections:
On the original author's site is stated: "the early reflections are different for the L and R inputs, but do not correspond to any real room. They have been tuned to match left and right sources to some extent."

I've also looked at the block diagram: https://www.dsprelated.com/josimages_ne ... img897.png
I just always assumed the ERs are "the second block".
Thanks!adam wrote:Perfect.
Are you willing to share your Hydrogen drumkit?TAERSH wrote:In Hydrogen I'm using my own creation of drum samples recorded from a huge Sonor Force 3007 Kit (21 Drums, 24 Cymbals, 6 Pedals).

I shared it already in the end of the days of the old Hydrogen page/forum. But this was only for 0.9.6, I think, and I don't know if they still have it on their new page. So I packaged two versions into one .tar.gz file. It's either for 0.9.6 (maybe also 0.9.7, didn't check that) and for the 1.0.0 which I compiled and uploaded to datafilehost.

I uploaded those two drum kits to my google drive: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1mxMmi ... aWK-0n4RvX
Of course, it's NOT a General MIDI Kit, as it has three Bass Drums, 4 Snare Drums, 4 Hi-Hats etc.pp.
And also of course, it doesn't contain everything from the current setup.
