Oh I missed the "worst name" yeah ! I'm not good at filthy games...

Here's a preset that should really be called "Warped 16mm" or something that suggests a broken 16 millimeter film projector. However, the contest is for good presets with bad names.

<ValhallaUberMod pluginVersion="1.0.1" presetName="ScreaminBunnies" Mix="1" Depth="0.549000025" StereoWidth="0.5" Delay="0" Feedback="0" Spread="0.61500001" Slope="0.5" Skew="0.5" Random="0" TapGain="0.5" Diffusion="1" DiffSize="0.206122443" DiffModRate="0.0490490496" DiffModDepth="0.5" LowCut="0.0804020092" HighCut="0.195979893" SpatialXover="0.145728648" DetuneRate="0.0160160158" DetuneDepth="1" VibratoRate="1" VibratoDepth="0.181999996" OverMod="0" DriveInGain="0.375" DriveOutGain="0.75" DriveNoiseGain="0.401111126" FeedbackRotate="0.0900000036" SmoothingTime="0.0192192197" ColorMode="1" DelaySync="0" type="0.291666657" DiffEnable="0" Drive="1" DrivePrePost="1" Speed="0" InputPan="0"/>

The name comes from a breakfast cereal I thought up right at the edge of sleep:

"Screamin' Bunnies: They Scream When You Pour Milk On Them!™"

You can keep it as clean as you want! The name just needs to be bad in some way. I was tapping into some horrible New Age sounding names last night, but whatever inspires you to go "that's not very good at all, is it?" is what I am looking for.

Your bunnies can scream in a very cool way when the feedback is pushed !

I have a confession to make:

I REGULARLY come up with these kind of preset names

For an edgy Easter breakfast.

oh do bunnies scream, yes they do, and ear piercingly loud. My cat caught a rabbit when I was a kid and brought it up too our porch alive and shrieking. Any surrounding neighbors would have thought someone was getting slowly repeatedly stabbed and prodded with a hot fire poker. Rabbit survived. Cat just wanted to bring us a preset. But it's the last thing anyone wants to hear coming from their yard late at night.

I found an MP3:

I tried to find some videos, and learned a valuable lesson: NEVER SEARCH FOR VIDEOS OF A RABBIT SCREAMING. Seriously, nothing good will come of that.

Anyway, here's another preset for ya. This is fun with vocals.

I just realized I mispelled "present" as "preset" and of course firefox didn't tell me because I spelled it right. Ubermod must be modulating my subconscious, or it's a combo of working 12 hours on little sleep and a few coffees and an energy drink. Brain tells me internet/audio/vsts, body says sleep... the ongoing war

I know. I'm not sure this is something I should be proud of.

I'm pretty good at creating diffusion networks that can be inserted into delay paths, but I need to create some plugins where I leave the diffusion out. So far, I have 3 actual reverbs out under my corporate name (Shimmer, Room, VintageVerb), and another chorus/delay unit that can do a pretty decent reverb (ÜberMod). FreqEcho is the only thing that CAN'T do reverb.

I'm reminded of a cook I once knew, whose spaghetti sauce tasted very close to his chili. I need to make sure that I create some plugins that DON'T degenerate into some diffused reverb slop.

Sean Costello

Here's a reverb preset for ÜberMod. HOORAY.

<ValhallaUberMod pluginVersion="1.0.1" presetName="HangVerb" Mix="1" Depth="0.458000004" StereoWidth="0.5" Delay="0.586600006" Feedback="0.731999993" Spread="1" Slope="0.579999983" Skew="0.5" Random="0.0799999982" TapGain="0.5" Diffusion="0.815999985" DiffSize="0.100000001" DiffModRate="0.0490490496" DiffModDepth="0.663999975" LowCut="0" HighCut="0.323618084" SpatialXover="0.145728648" DetuneRate="0.0720720738" DetuneDepth="0.620000005" VibratoRate="0.107769422" VibratoDepth="0" OverMod="0" DriveInGain="0.770833313" DriveOutGain="0.229166672" DriveNoiseGain="0.333333343" FeedbackRotate="1" SmoothingTime="0.0990990996" ColorMode="0" DelaySync="0" type="0.375" DiffEnable="1" Drive="0" DrivePrePost="1" Speed="1" InputPan="0.125"/>

This one has a really strange decay characteristic. A smooth reverb would traditionally use a greater Diffusion size, and rely on the diffusors to get the reverb sound. This preset, on the other hand, uses as short of diffusors as I can get away with, and relies on the taps to build the density. The result has a smooth frequency response and a high echo density, but a weird decay that can sound like an echo.

Great one! Yeah love the decay and its strange modulations, very chorusy reverb. Wait...Sean Costello made a reverb preset, how could that be ?!!!

Could someone help me with his FAQ:

I have Valhalla Room. UberMod and VVV. My system is Win 7 64 bit. Would you give me some instructions to install the presets.

So what should the paths be for my preset folders, pretty please?
