Hi guys
Is there any way to control the filter cutoff with ADSR?
It looks to me that both ADSRs are hardwired to the amplifier, while ENVs are lacking release phase...
Am I missing something?

Post

From what I can see you only have AD as a MOD envelope.

Also, no pitch bend, in case you haven't got that far!

There is pitchbend available. I found no settings for it at a glance, though.

Just a side note: I started to build me my own c++/juce/vst3 7-band splitter that will be used in my Nakst piece ... I'm actually not yet sure about the song is worth to upload.
I hope that announcing a plugin that will end up on the used plugins list in the middle of the month is still okayish ... in term's of fairness/availability to other participants. But what in life is fair anyways.

It's an early alpha, windows-only release, nevertheless it's already usefull to some extent: https://github.com/huberp/phu-splitter/ ... tag/v0.7.0. I have not yet made up my mind which route this going to go ... many ideas. Ah, good point: If you hate software that was made with AI, then this plugin is not for you ... it was quite a fun story. It started out as crossover filter experiment in Protoplug/LUA and then evolved into the c++ thingy you see today ... because I have a few more LUA experiments built over the years there might be more coming (actually there's already phu-arp as sibling repo)

You need a host that can handle a plugin with 7 individual outs. Bitwig does (don't forget to go to the outs page of the plugin in Bitwig and add missing outs). Cubase does not. That means you only get the bass band as output in Cubase ;-). These two DAWs are the only DAWs I have tested it ... okay, Cubase was only a smoke test to see whether spinning up the plugin kills the DAW, it doesn't. A bit of QA is already in place, meaning the build workflow in github uses the tracktion plugin tester, and I made sure by testing with Bertome EQ Curve Analyzer plugin, that the sum of bands has a flat frequency response ... Anyway ... what I wanted to say - it is at it is, it's free, I don't take any responsibility if it blows up your track ... though I hope it won't ;-)

One of the next releases will probably contain "Spectrum Broadcast" ... it will allow you to see all the spectrums of all other instances as well. Preview:

Early submission again.
Quite happy with this one by my standards, the synth helped a lot.

You wouldn't happen to be an avid VNV Nation listener, would you? ;)
Never heard of it, but I've heard my share of this stuff over 25 years ago!

Here is my submission:

NAKST is one of my favourite developers and Integrate is a wonderful synth!
I think this is by far the most modest track I've submitted in terms of plugin usage. Even the mastering was done with just one plugin. And it works. In this case, because I wanted to achieve an old-school sound.

DAW: Reaper 7.61

13 instances of Integrate by NAKST
Reverb: TENSjr by Klanghelm
EQ and compression: FrankCS by Analog Obsession (on most channels and on the master channel as well)

Five entries now so here's the preliminary playlist. I'll keep this updated as tracks are posted.
