I once thought I had mono for an entire year. It turned out I was just really bored...

I've been waiting a long time for a new Plugin Analyzer. And a great discount (on an already great price) for existing customers. As long as it works as expected, I'm 100% buying this one!

This is a really bad news for my music...
...because now I can (actually have to) surrender to my nerd side!

Good question - alias testing is essential for plugin nerding.fVk.kVr wrote:Aliasing?
I'm at work so can't check it out. If anyone does, let us know

Very cool. I'm always interested in ways to test vsts so this sure got my attention.
I installed the 64bits demo on Windows7.
Just a couple problems though, which I'm positive could be sorted out in the near future with updated releases
- I've seriously had tons of crashes, some of them after few seconds as i clicked on some buttons
- if I go full screen, quit the program, then restart, the gui is huge in size (bigger than my monitor) and I cannot redimension it. had to uninstall-reinstall everytime to fix this
Last thing... does this work with waves plugins and their waveshell thing?
Nice concept though. Another cool plugin by DDMF.

I haven't had any crashes, but I ran into this one too. I also had a few plugins with wonky metering that I'm trying to figure out.Niowiad wrote:- if I go full screen, quit the program, then restart, the gui is huge in size (bigger than my monitor) and I cannot redimension it. had to uninstall-reinstall everytime to fix this
Also, I loaded the Waves Shell and suddenly the Scheps Omni plugin appeared, but none of my other plugins.
All in all, it's a 1.0 release. Nothing too bad just yet. Bought it.

I got it. It works pretty well. It is very interesting to see the harmonics and response of various plugins especially Nebula 4 programs. Very nice if you want to get a handle on what your plugins are doing and confirm/deny various things. Useful tool if you are a plugin nerd.

better name for it is "PluginGutViewer" or GutVST! (like "Got Milk ?") or "VstMRI"

Re: Aliasing - yep! I mean, it doesn't tell you there's aliasing but if you know what to look for you'll find it.
My initial impressions:
- What is that glitchy hash mess down at noisefloor on Pro-Q 2? Thought this was supposed to be CLEAN! (OK it's below the hearing level of ants, but still...)
- Hornet Tape crashes it...
- Would be really nice to be able to see down below 20hz, preferably down to 0hz which would help diagnose DC offset when it is an issue.

Finally a replacement for the good old 32-bit VST Analyser! 
This one looks better, too. 
I'm so looking forward to playing with it. It's always very convenient to be able to check what the plugins are actually doing to the sound. I really like to check EQ curve and phase responses, DC offset and any HPF and LPF, saturation harmonics, noise and randomisation if implemented [I love some slight randomisation in EQ, amplitude and phase for true analogue behaviour] and yes - aliasing.
I'm puzzled someone didn't come up with it sooner and I'm glad DDMF decided to make it! I love the Metaplugin. 
Hopefully, he'll iron out at least the worst bugs soon.
edit: he hasn't implemented editing values for GUIless plugins like Airwindows, yet.
Also, it would be nice to be able to edit the GUI colours. I'd prefer more contrast between dark-grey and light-grey.

Very exciting! A few issues from playing with the demo:
- TSE R47 crashes it consistently for me (Win64)
- No controls for Airwindows plugins makes me sad I was looking forwards to using this to compare the transfer curves and frequency response of quirky airwindows filters and comps to stuff with fancy GUIs.
- Waveshell doesn't work; selecting a shell just opens a plugin from early in the list.
