I see, I guess I was jumping the gun on that, myself.

So your morphing convolution uses multiple IR's sequentially, right, for time based effects? Where "dynamic convolution" is more like velocity layers and the IR used depends on input velocity? So I guess it would actually take both approaches combined to be able to model anything and everything with IR's, right??
Actually morphing is not linked to anything. It can be controlled by means of control values or by hand. Or it is useful to choose a notexisting IR that is halfway between two IRs.
But it can be easily linked to signal amplitude or wathever else we want.
There is a patent about linking IR selection to instant input level, I would like to avoid that!

Saying that IRs can emulate everything isn't exact. There are aspects (like memory effects) that convolution cannot emulate. I'll combine several algorithms to get something from convolution and other aspects (like memory effects, i.e. condensers and inductors) from other techs, basing on results and ideas that will come out here.

Hey quintosardo - I have a recording I've used in convolution reverbs that might
interest you.

It's fireworks echoing off the skyscrapers downtown where I live.
I was in a band that practiced in the empty penthouse level on the rooftop
of a building.

I don't have the impulses and more but I just found the actual recording.
Any interest to you for your plug-in? It makes the hugest reverb I've ever heard.

How do you make an impulse from that?

If you ever make another one, lemme grab a copy, please, I love 'hugest reverb ever' stuff..

:D

No problemo.
Just heard your "Bliss of the Illuminated"
on EMC - quite awesome!

Um, the impulse was made by a friend about 2 years ago with some Voxengo
product if I recall correctly. I'm loading the RARed wav onto the
auditorium on my forum in so someone can grab it and make an impulse.
Might take a while - unstable wireless doesn't behave well round here.

It's used on the bandpassed horns on the end of my song "Dystopian Ekstases"
if you ever heard that one. Hard drive crash lost the impulses - you'd never
guess from the recording but once it's an impulse the verb is like 6 blocks wide.

@runagate:
uh, that should be an interesting idea!
Some people gets ambient impulse responses by popping a balloon and recording the sound.
So, if the recording contains somewhere a single shot (like the last bang could be) it _is_ an impulse response.

Great idea :D
We (here in Sicily) have fireworks almost every week. I could do the same thing in a sicilian fashion...

Going to look for the IR in Auditorium, thanks :D
(I'll let you hear the results)

"MORPH" is ready in its first version. I'm just waiting for an ok by sinkmusic... sinkmusic, are you there??? :wink:

Post

cool, looking forward to it. i like doing crazy impulse/wav file switching in voxengo's boogex. i bet this will yield some nice results as well. :)

too bad i'll be gone over the weekend. :( ;)

I posted the fireworks as a RAR towards the end of this post.

Sickle grabbed it, too, and has a friend working on making it an impulse.
It can be uses as such as is, but it works even better when deconvolved.

I am barely able to wait for your plug-in! Perhaps I can split up my "panther growl" sample into individual impulse slices and morph between them now wih a real time control? I can barely contain my strange fantasies of comvolution morphing now!

Damn Quint! You're my hero! :D But get Solo, grains, tolcbocs, and voices out of beta before you start another one. :hihi:

Very interesting. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for it.

Peace

Not in this one. This first one is "closed".
In the next "open" one you will be able to load wathever you want (limited in size).

The reason is that it is harder to release an "open" plugin, a lot more of tests must be implemented to avoid problems...
I might still be mis-reading this, but I think in this first plug you will not be able to use your own impulses - but there is another "open" plug using morphing convolution in the works?

it's a flat plain here with odd hills & mountains jutting out.. you can see 1/2 way up to phoenix - sit on a hillside and hear a rancher fire a shot and listen to it echo off the other prominences, ~5-10 miles apart..

Yes indeed. Defintiely do not forget Traks. Great stuff there as well. :D

The right one for this is Grainz!!! :)
