Great! Any discount for owners of Delay+Pitch+Blur on the horizon?

gsdsp · Post by **gsdsp** » Tue Jun 06, 2023 6:17 am

It is now on sale for $39.99. If you previously bought the bundle and buy this now at the discounted price you pay the same amount as someone who buys the full bundle now. We try to make the pricing as fair as possible! Hope that works for you!

We had reports of an issue with certain versions of Ableton Live and ProTools which we now have addressed. Please download the new installer, re-install the plugins, and rescan plugins in your DAW. Sorry for any inconvenience!

I got some issues purchasing it.

When it prompts me to fastspring checkout it says 48.99 euros and not 39.99.

I also have purchased all Your previous plugins. How could I get the discount You mentioned?

Latency is too high for live use. Such a shame because this and MagicBlur look really promising

I agree 100%, and Zynaptiq Morph has better latency and it does cleaner / better sounding morphing in Real-Time than GS DSP MagicFusion.

GS DSP MagicFusion is basically a poor man's Zynaptiq Morph with a less intuitive user interface.

We only set the price in dollars, fastspring handles the conversions and applies taxes automatically according to your billing address. If you are a business, it's possible to provide your VAT number, so you can drop the taxes. Hope that helps

Except that MagicFusion is a Spectral Vocoder and Zynaptiq Morph is a Spectral Morphing Effect. Comparing apples and oranges.
Sorry for the latency though, 2048 samples are needed to provide you with the quality needed. Maybe we can add a live mode in a future update, we are keen on doing that!

Interesting, I just checked the latency of Zynaptiq Morph:
Without the low latency setting there will also be 2048 samples of latency. Turning on that option brings it down to 512 samples but as I thought, this degrades the sound quality quite heavily.

please please please can you fix the installer so we can choose which formats it installs, so i don't get yet another useless aax plugin installed on my system.

Will do, that‘s on our list!

I would guess they just reduce the numbers of the filter banks (vs. FFT ). (just guessworking)
What else could/should they do ?

the real trick here is: add the option of oversampling !
though, it quickly becomes *extremly* CPU heavy.
and ideally, implement a setting for the filterband count also.
(i´ve used Bluecats "patchwork" (host, but used as a VST) in my testpatch to add oversampling to the fusionvocoder)

the high latency was to be expected, no ? Since its fft based. but feels on the slower side. i think same.

i had problems with midi CC mapping within GP (GigPerformer) btw.
( and would guess it was a problem within the fusionvocoder / not 100% sure // to notes: i have similar problems, based on my masterkyboard allways sending out CC11 / but: i was shutting down my keyboard, so.......just, in case i had forgotten to block all my CCs from my masterkeyboard within GP )
