Gretings all!

Enjoy

Torben

THANKS TORBEN!!!!! The Classic series is awsome. I use it all the time. This is a very nice reverb. Thanks for spliting the presets into regular and sends . THat was a good idea. I wish other verbs did this, such as Ambience, and Reason's RV7000.

Wow, the Classic series is really a God-send.

Thanks Torben I am downloading it now. The Classic limiter/chorus/flanger are my default fx. Wonderful stuff!

woo hoo! I second that.....awesome stuff Torben. And now a reverb! Kickass!

Thanks again

Thank you AD80

One of the beta testers suggested that the presets was send effects instead of the originally insert effects so I did both.

Thanks
Torben

Thank you Laserguided & yuppiegulag, hope you enjoy it as much as the other Classic plugins

I'll have to check that out later! Hopefully it's a decent little reverb, and doesn't eat CPU like crazy like Ambience.

Devon

Thanks, Torben! You can never have too many reverbs! This one is sort of smooth & round-sounding (?); CPU hit is similar to Freeverb2's. Is this the last plugin in the Classic line?

No it's not

I was wondering what commercial plug-ins are you planning on releasing?

Torben: I was wondering what commercial plug-ins are you planning on releasing?

First it will be a Chorus & Flanger plugin with even smoother sound than the Classic Chorus and Classic Flanger. It will have 2 LFO's with 11 waveforms each, delays from 0.05 to 600 ms, extreme high feedback levels with controllable filters, Host sync and much more.

Later I got a few other ideas I am working on

Regards
Torben

Thaaaaaankssssss!!!!!

Thank you Torben!

Fabulous job on the classic series.

Brilliant, thanks a lot! I've been only playing around with it for a while but it sound very usable to me, especially with that insane reverb tail when your turn down the damping. Very nice, thanks again!

Ooh great! I hope its as good as the other classics. Will report back later.

Rozzer

thx torben

i downloaded it, tried it and decided to use it in my current song

Brilliant, your classic series is great - so is your reverb.

Good Gawd Torben!! You Rock!! The Classic Series is definitely
some of the finest VST freeware ever released. Your commercial
modulation plugin sounds totally awesome and will surely be a must
have!! Ok, I KNOW you've got a juicy 12 stage analog phaser up
your sleeve...he...he...

ThanXX Again!!

Cheers.......CL

this is really a good sounding reverb... I like it

thanks torben

I thank you
my songs thank you..
whats all this about a commercial modulation plug-in?

I am glad you all like it

As said earlier it will be a more advanced Chorus & Flanger plugin. I expect to release it 1. November, but more about that later

Thanks
Torben

Another excellent plug - thanks very much for releasing it for free.

It's useful.
It sounds airy.
It's easy to handle.
It DOESN'T sound static, flat and artificial like a lot of other reverbs.
It's cpu-friendly.
It's FREE !!!

Lexicon, eat your heart out !

Thanks a billion !!!

AARGH!!!
Thank you a million times, Torben--first for the reverb, which I'll d/l and try tonight after work and EQ
Can't wait to grab it! Just one thing--when you start your commercial line, pls, don't use Paypal (if possible)--they don't support transactions from Russia (dunno why they don't, as most other systems do, but this really sux IMO ). Judging by the quality of your free plugs, the commercial ones must be really fantastic, and I wouldn't want to miss'em!

Not decided yet, but you will get allot for your money - I promise

Tried Classic Compressor on an acoustic drum mix tonight.

It was very nice.

It kept all the nuances I'd programmed in, pumped the kick up a bit which was what I wanted, and overall gave the drums more natural presence against a sharp biting bass.

Thanx

last night i tried out SIR that required downloading a lot of large of IR files. I played a wav drum loop and had some fun listening to all the differnt plates and rooms and halls

then i tried Classic Reverb and nothing I tried with SIR brought that wav file to life like the drum room preset on Classic Reverb. just so much clear presence -- nothing went murky -- very very nice. Thanks.

Thanks Torben. Interesting feature this negative predelay, if you use this plugin as insert effect

Great, this little reverb - about a quarter the cpu usage of Ambience and OldSkool - Reverb but comparable in quality - especially fine on drums -
i must correct myself: the best drum reverb i have ever heard on vst basis.

Thank you very very much !

Could you put the version number on the .dll or the GUI? My memory is awful, i cant remember if i have got the latset versions or not, and i dont want to keep dl all the time. thanks

Excellent plugs BTW

it doesn't matter to me anymore as sadly torben wont be making mac verions , but torben's fx have such nice elegant dll names it would be a shame to ruin them with v number...Krim, you could rename it yourself when you download it, or rename the zip archive..

but the version number on the gui itself is a gr8 idea

Agreed. It should be somewhere in the gui.

I did not say I don't want to make Mac versions; maybe I will, someday

And I do not like the version numbers on the plugins; it should be in an about box instead.

Thanks

That will do.

Hey Torben

Any chance of you squeezing a filter plug out also. With all kinds of different filter types. Your plugs really rock!!!

Torben,

Just used your reverb finally, after d/ling it a few days ago. I thought it was going to be another crappy reverb, like most of them (just checked out BlueLine reverb. HORRBILE just as I expected.) Well, I have to say I've been pleasantly surprised. Finally something that surpases Logic's PlatinumVerb, and actually holds up against a few of my favorites like the Pulsar's MasterVerb. I also like that it uses only around 5%-10% of my CPU instead of Ambience's typical 18-20%, so I might actually use it! Still, it's got a ways to really FULLY compete with my Eventide, but then again, the Eventide has pages and pages of parameters to tweak with too, and also cost considerably more. At least the reverb is NOT RINGY! That's what drives me nuts with most of them!

So two thumbs up here! Very nice plug, and it's FREE and easy on my CPU. Can't complain.

So, any chance of you coming out with a phaser plugin? That's what I'd really like to have.

Devon

Hi Torben,

Just wanted add my thanks... I've not had a chance to try out the reverb yet (but looking forward to it a lot). Anyways, just wanted to say I'm loving these guys particularly the flanger (which surprised me as I've not been excited by flangers before even though I'm guitar player) and the master limiter is a wonderful peice of work. I don't have anything that compares to that one at all...

Cheers.

Here is a list of planned Classic Plugins. There might be other ones and there might be some of the Plugins on this list that will never get released, but it shows what I got in mind right now.

Classic Delay
Classic Tremolo
Classic Overdrive
Classic Vocoder
Classic EQ
Classic De-esser
Classic Filters
Classic Noisegate
Classic Leslie

Thanks
Torben

Wow Torben nice list. I think a good phaser would really round out the list perfectly. I'm particularly looking forward to the Tremolo (please include the choice of sine and square waveforms with the ability to blend between the two and tempo sync ), the Leslie (really looking forward to this, I trust you'll make it great), the Overdrive (have a particular stompbox in mind with this one?), and the vocoder. Aside from that a Phaser would be great too (just thought I'd repeat myself ). As for the filters and the delays, I'm sure they'll be good, but in all honesty the VST market is already saturated with these so they're just a little less exciting.

Aren't parenthesis great?

No, not yet. The list is just a draft. The specifications for each Plugin are not made yet.

YOU are thanking US??????

What a man, Torben, wow, who can say enough good things about you. This is simply amazing, thanks for making such an incredible contribution to the availability of quality free plugins. I got my start with VST thanks in large part to the various free offerings available, and in the last 2 years become in a position (and more serious about my hobby) to afford to give something back to the developers by purchasing some of the commercial stuff I'd been lusting after!

Your incredible free stuff is sure to inspire so many people, novice and pro alike. It's really a great thing you are doing, the community is extremely lucky to have someone like you.

All the best (and a million thanks....)

LG

Woohooo!!!!!!

Thanks is not a strong enough word . These plugs are really nice Torben, great job.

Torben,

There is one delay that I have on my Pulsar II. It's a pattern delay. It gives you 4 points per quarter note over one full measure, and allow you to pan each delay however you like, and trigger with each position. Be nice to have it as a VSTi. High and low pass filters are also welcome too on these. I don't see very many pattern delays out there, but tons of other delays.

Devon

An Overdrive would be great

Thanx for everything

kev

Classic series are the best freeware plugins! Reverb also rocks! Ambience is still a bit better, but it eats CPU like hell. This one will be my main reverb, at least until I get 4GHz CPU

Just tried the reverb this afternoon.

What a delight.

Smooth, lovely.

thanx, torben

Have you checked out More Feedback Machine? BTW, what, exactly, is a pattern delay?

I thought MFM was Mac only? Am I wrong?

As for a pattern delay



This is the one from the Puslar. Very nice and easy to use with good flexibility.

Devon

DevonB wrote:

Yup. I'm running it on a PC. Four lines of delay, all with input matrices, two LFOs and a step-sequencer-type-thing.

Your plugins are very good I use them all the time, thank you!

Ok, went off to get it. Thanks! Let's see if I even like it or not.

I like the sound of this reverb. Thank you, Torben!

Hi Torben,

Downloaded your plugs, haven't used them yet, though I've heard nothing but good things about them. Thanks so much for sharing, and we'll be keeping an eye out for your "higher-end" stuff when it comes out.

All the best,
JD

About the pattern based delay, good news!

I'm almost done with a 6 tap pattern delay with lpf and SHUFFLE!!! from 30 to 75%. All works like a charm, only the GUI is left to be build wait and see. (made in SE)

Sounds like one of the better ones. The low Cpu is like magic! Very good on my slow machine.

"I know, but I forgot to write it on my list "

That's Ok Torben.....you're still a god in my book!!

BTW....are you familiar with the old TC Electronics
XII Programmable Phaser? This was perhaps the
greatest stompbox phaser ever made, lots of great
features.....here's a pic and a description:

http://members.chello.se/pastorn/fx/sounds/sounds.htm

One of the coolest features of this pedal was an input jack
that allowed the user to plug in a volume pedal and manually
control the speed, not unlike a Leslie.

Cheers......CL
