+1 +1 +1 !

please consinder developing it further on
RipplerX is really really good :-)

Commercial version could have second part and serial and parallel modes,just giving an idea:)
You nail the intuitive gui and usable options for sure.
I just made a dynimizing settings on top of a boring pad for less than 2 minutes and already the mix sounds better.
Cheers :)

Noted, I had things planned like more more resonator types (currently in another branch), excitator modes (pluck, hammer, samples etc..) pitch wheel support and others, I'll probably still work on these when I don't have other things to work on.

Got it, to be honest I'd have to optimize the filters first, they are a bit taxing on the CPU, making it a two filter plugin would be quite an upgrade worthy of a second version, good suggestion, glad to hear it works already.

But I want you to know that RipplerX is an absolute masterpiece. You could probably change $100 for it..... It's that good. You are an amazing developer!!!
Thanks, Rippler is okay it does lack proper resonator coupling like Chromaphone does and I have no idea how they do it, never bothered adding pitch wheel support and other features too, appreciate the comment nonetheless :). I do think these plugins are more pro grade compared to rippler but synths tend to be more popular.
Don't sell it short. The beauty of RipplerX is that it does one thing extremely well that take a lot of time in synths like Serum and Phaseplant, which is quickly accessing and combining real-world, nature-based sounds like wood, steel, bells, rubbed glass, strings, etc. The interface is easy to comprehend without reading a manual and dead simple to work with. I wish all plugin makers understood this basic design concept.

If I had one wish it would be for more resonator types, specifically more string types. The existing ones are very nice, but would definitely enjoy more strings with a wide variety of character. Wouldn't turn my nose up at other resonators and excitor modes either. Even the current variety of resonators really makes this plugin really flexible, and if you're going to do more work on it, adding more of those elements would be leaning hard into the strength of what you're already built, which is a very, very good thing.


Regarding the new filter plugin, I saw the review SummSummSumm did on his YT channel. He spent a lot of time on the LFO aspect, but didn't demo the actual filters other than the LPF. Kind of did it a disservice IMO, which makes me even more tempted to check it out, even though I'm bursting at the seams with filter plugins. I guess I could always find a use for one more tho. Lol

Make an affordable paid version,something like 19,99 and i will become user and designer of Dual Filt-r presets (volunteer).
Commercial version is more demanding i guess,but gives a focus and target.
Easiest way to make successful second paid version, with freebie like this ,is just to ask future users - what you miss in similar products...?
My personal wish as designer is to have second part,which to give double dynamics.
Simple and intuitive like this version,both parts working together as dynamic duo.
Also variations of moog-ish,ms20-ish or else,but with more gentle sound and saturation opttion,don't care to be exact replica of famous brand,if the sound is something new and exciting, it's better.
The most important is the dynamics,that's what i would pay an use,already have enough good filters,which can't add dynamics the way this little beast did yesterday:)
Just humble suggestions,if decide to make second version.
Good stuff must be paid.
Cheers :)

It is difficult to come up with more string methods unless I use other synth types like the waveguides used for open and closed tubes, the string configuration is the most basic, it just places the modals double the frequency of each other and it sounds pretty good. I am not sure I can come up with more String models, but different excitators could really add character and there are many I could add besides the current filtered impulse: pluck, strike, hammer, sample etc..

SummSumm covered FILT-R but he misunderstood a bit things like the paint mode and sequencer are not the main edit mode, with that said really appreciate him covering the plugin.

Thanks for words on Rippler :)

Glad to hear its working and you use the dynamics. About the commercial version, not considering for now because of the logistics like licenses, code signing and all that, its tempting but could easily not be worth the effort I think.

The double filters you propose is interesting but a big undertaking (basically a new version), I will not forget but can't say I'll be working on that tomorrow - I am releasing the last plugin of this collection this week, and probably taking a break for a few months after that.
