Bad english language. :cry:
Sometimes, I must create a plugin for my own use, 'cause I've never found this plugin, or I'ven't knew find it.
At odd times, somebody send me a post and ask to me if it's possible to create that kind of plug, or other...
However, when I make a listing of all the existing plugins, I'm under the impression that ALL the plugs have been created.
My question is :
what is the plugin (or kind of plugin) that you have looked for, without ever find it (a plugin very important for you) ?
Many plugins creators as me are maybe reading this post and your reply is a good work "arena" for me and themselves. :)


Très bon langage français :wink:
De temps en temps, je suis obligé de créer pour moi-même un plugin parce que je ne l'ai trouvé nulle part, ou que je n'ai pas su le trouver.
Parfois, quelqu'un m'envoie un mail en me demandant s'il est possible de créer tel ou tel plugin...
Pourtant quand je liste tous les plugins existants, j'ai l'impression que tout a déjà été fait ou refait.
Ma question est :
quel type de plugin avez-vous cherché sans jamais le trouver, alors qu'il vous aurait été très utile ?
Plusieurs créateurs de plugins vont sûrement lire ce message et cela leur donnera (comme à moi) peut-être des idées, des nouvelles pistes de travail :)

Hi Daniel! I'm guitar player!
I'v never find a good harmonizer plugin
to use with my guitar without latency !

1.dry - yet
2 delay in two chanels
3 Up pich and Down pich sliders
and may be some modulation
on harmonized chanels

and good looking GUI :)


Best Regards
Dimitar :D

Hallo Daniel,
I never found a plugin to simulate a human vibrato effect. ( Like on Guitar, or Trumpets or maybe voice )

When I use a LFO with sine to modulate the pitch it always sounds a little monotonic, like a machine.

There should be a little random effect in the sine.
Always changing the amplitude and the frequence a little bit (random) to create a more human effect.

Every Sampler Hard or soft has only the normal modwheel /LFO pitch FX that sounds like crap.

reinhard - mod the first lfo with a 2nd.. 3rd.. nth.. :) usually if i only have 2 availavle, the 2nd will mod the 1sts phase, bit less mechanistic than >rate or amount.

Many people uses plugins randomly... a little information is useful, take a look at some documentation about sound effects...
I'd like a plugin who could help me being MOTW !
You can't always get what you waaaant...

I've never found any useful free solution yet, and I think is very important, a pitch shifter with formant correction that shifts only a few semitones (could be 2 or 4).

That will be all we need to tune any vocal take.

i once posted an idea for a plugin:
a delay plugin with a gate effect for every repeat, NOT for the overall feedback. It's a bit hard to explain, but may be i can do it visually.

A typical delay plug goes like this (bold is the original dry signal, none-bold is delay signal):
boooom, boooom, boooom, boooom, boooom, boooom, ...

My idea for a delay would behave like this (again, bold for original dry signal, none-bold is delay signal, * for gate/silence):
boooom, boooom, boooo*, booo**, boo***, b*****, ...

does that make any sense? it's an awesome effect, and although i usually do this by repeating an audio file in my sequencer and then cutting it up to achieve this effect, an automated version of it could give some new creative possibilities.

The thing is people get this idea confused with the effect of moving the delay time to shorter values without changing the pitch of the delay. This is not what I'm after. Notice the * represents silence on the repeats, which means that the delay time stays the same (6 characters: b-o-o-o-o-m).

anyway.. :shock: :lol:

Yeah, that's a cool idea! Envelope-shaped delay. Or a time-stepped granulator. It's a delay. No! It's a filter! No! It's two. Two in one. You got my vote.

You could probably get this effect with some kind of gate. If you mess with the threshold and the release time I don't see why this would not be possible (very sensitive with a short release).
do it for the money

Post

Naw...come on!!!

How about a reverb, that also includes aan aural exciter, instead of an EQ,
then , also include a spectrum analizer to do parametric notch filtering,
and design it with eq'ing in mind , of say a STEREO- 1/3rd octave range!!!

...thIS wOOD B 2 MucH th3 SHIT !!!!!!

Trust me. You don't wanna go tit for tat with this guy. Or even Boom Boom Swoosh :lol:

Such plugin could be easily created on Synthedit, just using one envelope connected to the Feedback parameter to make it "erase" portions on the delay line.

sweet_trip -

first element = delay

second element = var. len gate

i believe you're asking for a plug which will automatically recognise 'first strikes,' delay and gate them.. if you set up the delay yourself,

you can use my 'gate2' plug for the var. length gating

gate2 has 3 periodically synced lfos.. eg. for decreasing gate length, assign 1 lfo to this destination, sync it and use a shorter duty cycle than your sync period (eg. only using the first 90deg. of sine cycle to create 'cyclic gate length diminuation..')

hth... gate2 :) "it's the gate with lfos"
