Does it fart?

Nah, you need PSP Vintage Warmer for that effect ;p

Really? So we finally have a free alternative to the much appraised vintagewarmer!

You need to have +/- 24 db. This would bring -12 tracks up to needed level for sweet spot. Fine tuning with shift click can be done easily as long as output trim can cover the ground.

Wow thankyou Bootsie

I strapped this on a return for a drum group and a guitar group and the results are fantastic. I think that for drums that it is in my opinion an amazing tool. It brought out crack and body whilst having a realistic release, or what i deem realistic from my experience of any form of analogue compression.

Thankyou again.

I'm listing to the audio demos on the DC page.

Is it just me or do they sound almost exactly the same

? Listening really closely and I hear no dif..

Am I having an anechoic room simulator moment here? So confused..

Maybe that sounds like too much...
Too much imho since it would be hard to fine tune. I'd frankly speaking prefer even +/-6 dB than +/-24.

A solution could be an one more "+/-6,12,24 range" switch but having too many controls is also not so great.
That's what the VST fine tune mode was invented for. Shift drag on any control does that.

I know about shift-dragging, but still +/-12dB vs. +/-24 is still twice resolution and twice precise visual feedback. And any additional gain adjustments can be done using another plugin in the chain.

Anyway, since everybody's choice seems to be +/-24dB I won't argue anymore, thanks it's not +/-36 or 48.

Sorry sir, I didn't wanted to step on your toes. I think +/-24dB is a good compromise. Let's see what Bootsie does.

agreed)))

That way you won't get phasing issues. It's however of course a bit of a ressource-wastement.
Yeah, nice idea, thanks!

Hey, I have a sick idea - can you add separate dry/wet knob for compression and for saturation? THAT would fun!

Saturation???

Aren't you supposed to "get the f*** out of the way?"

This thing sounds pretty cool but I won't be able to try it unless Bootsy figures out why his new plugs are closing hosts at random.

this tool is amazing tried it on several tracks and i love it. i got no problems in my host but i read about that problem in another thread:

http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=268624

There is now a bugfix release 1.0.2 available (download via the DC'09 page).

Please download and test if there are any further crashes happening.

Since the DC'09 rules just allow bugfixes and no feature additions during the contest I will include an additional input level control later on after the challenge is finally done.

3.2. Further notes

About Dry/Wet mixing with FerricTDS: This effect causes a few slight phase alterations.
This means that you can't mix it back into the incoming audio without getting
unwanted phase cancellations. Therefore, the plug-in does not include a Dry/Wet
control.

OMG, bootsie has an entry in the DC'09!
