New Free Chorus Plugin - Updated to 0.3.1 (12th July 2012) 2012-07-04T03:05:48+00:00 http://i.imgur.com/IBq7V.jpg I'm considering creating a series of free effect plugins, partly inspired by the Kjaerhus Classic series. My current thought is to only create plugins which can be made with simple GUIs. Say a maxiumum of 8 knobs or switches. The simple controls will be a limiting factor on how effects are designed. However that should make the GUI's quicker to produce, leaving more time to focus on the effect algorithms which is more fun. The first proof of concept effect is a chorus. 32 and 64 Windows VST formats can be downloaded from www.onesmallclue.com/orange_chorus.php . My goal was to create a clear chorus effect that could be used to thicken or blur synth parts or vocals. I'm fairly happy with the plugin so far. Depending on the feedback I might tweak the chorus algorithms a bit more. I'm not sure about the all knob GUI design. I think it makes for an attractive overall layout, but perhaps switches would better represent the functionality of the MODE and SHAPE parameters. The chorus has three chorus algorithms: - Type A mixes the dry signal with one chorus voice. - Type B mixes the dry signal with two chrous voices. - Type C mixes the dry signal with four chorus voices. Each chorus voice is a delayed version of the dry signal. The delay time can be modulated to introduce pitch variations. The plugin uses 2x oversampling. The plugin hasn't been tested widely yet, but I'm hoping it will be resonably stable as much of the code has been used in other plugins. There might be some problems with the installer as it's doing a couple new things. The installer: - Copies the plugin DLL and two additional files to your VST Plugin directory. - Creates a plugin data directory. By default this will be in "ProgramData\One Small Clue\Orange Chorus" - Creates a registry entry so plugins can locate the data directory. - Copies several files to the windows System directory. These files provide optimised math functions and DSP algorithms used in the plugin. - An uninstaller is created in the plugin data directory so everything can be uninstalled safely. What effects would you like to see implemented next? Shannon very angry mobster https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=11047
