So how do you like it?

I'll testing it tomorrow seriously and send xls to you. however after a quick test it showed good cpu usage on my athlon64 2800+ and it can sound really bizarre

. I can consider it as a little brother for OhmBoys

. for the first glance the only neutral-displeasing thing for me was GUI. I think it can be more clear and attractive than it's current condition.

Cheers

about the GUI:
-the Wave and Shapelabels are aligned with the second knob from the left, IMO it would be clearer if they were alligned with the first knob (so that they're above both knobs)
-there's a lot of blank space at the bottom, maybe you could reduce the window size.

betatesters: mind that "ultra thump" isn't included in the spreadsheet.

where should I send the spreadsheet to?

cptgone · Post by **cptgone** » Tue Mar 21, 2006 6:27 pm

- the left Shape knob doesn't always do anything.
- the knobs don't look like they're meant for browsing
- the browse knobs should be closer together (better still, have no space between them)
- some of the shapes are numbered in logarithmic

This is a very cool delay!

- it would be nice to have a visualisation of the shapes and waves, and an overview over them (e.g. by means of a droplist or whatever)
- the Mix knob is counter-intuitive IMO as it actually decreases the effect's level: maybe you should label it "effect mute" or something instead
- the GUI doesn't show the Rate and Lvl knob control the Mod, adding a frame would help IMO

One more thing about the GUI: I like the colors, they're easy on and pleasing to the eyes. It brings blue skies to my DAW

Darn, cptgone beat me to all of the issues I could think of!

Mainly as mentioned, the 'Mix' slider needs reversing, the GUI tweaking (Wave and shape text moved to left).

Oh well, I'm making some presets for this and also going to record some little snippets of fun to show people soon.

Wait with the presets till beta 2 arrives, check the readme for info.

I sometimes manage to kill the sound when I put the feedback up to max, seems to give the equivilent of 'blowing' the plugin. Heh.. Anyone else had that happen?
