xhipeffects_r1 give Access Violation errors in energyXT v1.41

Post

energyxt <2 has a bug - it tries to read directly from the audioeffectx object, which i don't use. i use my own code, not the vst sdk. the vst spec says that "object" pointer should be null, and "user" should be used instead. i do this and it works fine with any proper vst host.

you'll have to use energyxt2. i also have this problem with energyxt, jorgen said he doesn't plan to fix it, or more specifically it's already fixed in xt2.

All the effects are working here in Live 8, SoundForge 10, TunaFish v1.8, Buzz (polac vst loader as is the synthesizer), Renoise 2. The only host i have not tried them in yet that i use is Pro Tools (using the FXpansion VST To RTAS adaptor) as i have not had any need to fire PT8 up since i downloaded the effects aciddose FWIW. No crashes yet

You really should offer the user a choice as there's no one "right" way to do it, those who use linear hate circular, and vice versa. I guess SE developers just hard-wire in whatever mode they prefer? They can't check the host preference? I guess that would explain why it seemed they were all linear.
Interesting, must be something XT1/2 / Live5 is sending to the plugin, because I can definitely use both methods on the knobs in those two plugins, depending on my initial motion. Not just initial in fact, you can change from linear/relative circular in the middle of a motion too although the switch feels messy.

Thanks for the plugin pack update acid - great to see the gate plugin updated. The last version was the only gate I ever used for non-rhythmic needs.

These FX bundle is still better and better - less bugs, more buttons, better sound...

I like Phaser, it's smooth with really low CPU usage, but still missing tempo sync button to beat Classic Phaser.

Looking forward to Chorus and Tempo-sync Delay.

eventually i hope that i'll provide "sync to tempo" options by right-click on most speed controls.

the main difference with the "tempo sync delay" will be that when changing the speed it will not modify the pitch.

the "mdelay" is designed to modify pitch intentionally.

i'm not sure when i'll implement those options - it may be a commercial feature only and you must set the speed control manually in the free versions.

phaser and mdelay can already do chorus sounds. the difference with the "chorus" effect will be that it uses many buffers in a variety of configurations. the phaser is only configured in stereo.

so; the free effects already do these things. the only advantage will be that it will be much easier to do 'automatically'.

Sync to tempo would be really nice update (for me of course)... :hihi:
... and it doesn't matter if it will be freeware or payware effect if it is good.

Chorus is included in your old effect package and is also useful.

the 'chorus' in the old effect package is actually the phaser, only with the setting for stages = 128.

the new phaser is a combination of the old one with the old 'chorus' effect, plus other improvements.

see "for chorus ..."

the mdelay effect can also be used as a ordinary chorus effect by using short times and a very small positive feedback amount.

it can be configured as flanger with maximum negative feedback.

Thank you for your advices, really helped me.

Phaser is my the most favorite modulation FX in music creation. When I try to create chorus effect with your Phaser, it needs much more CPU than chorus created with Mdelay.

yes, because it is using a completely different method.

the mdelay uses digital samples and interpolation. the phaser uses allpass filters, so it is like an "analog" delay.

the response of the mdelay is linear - any frequency will be delayed by the same time.

the phaser's allpass filters delay high frequencies less - infinite frequency, or in this case nyquist has a zero delay. zero frequency has the greatest delay.

this property gives it a unique sound.

i'll also write a bbd delay soon which has it's own unique quality. a bbd uses samples, but with a variable sample rate. rather than adjusting the number of samples delay, a bbd adjusts the length of a sample with a fixed number of samples delay.

they're all most useful in slightly different places. i like the phaser delay most on pads and synthesizer sounds. the mdelay sounds best on vocals and other natural sources. bbd sounds best on certain instruments, guitars for example.

I found a strange bug (in FL Studio 10.08).

Image

I could not turn any knobs, even when effect was reloaded. I had to close FL Studio and open project again to solve this bug. This problem happend 2 times in +- 30minutes, first time with Mdelay and second time with Phaser (I'm using just these 2 plugins).

What did I wrong?

i'm not sure. i've had problems in flstudio before also.

the bug may be fixed in the latest version of the effects, but that won't be released for some time.

No problem, Ctrl+S is my savior. I'll hope that latest version will be fixed and will contain some improvements (like eg. sync to tempo for phaser etc.). I'm not hurry, my donation also. :hihi:

Thank you for your time and help.
