TL;DW: PurestWarm2 adds dual dry/wet controls for each side of the waveform.

PurestWarm2.zip(613k)

Hi! Sorry for the slight delay: I just flew over 2000 miles and everything's been a bit up in the air, not just me being up in the air. But I'm here! And I have a plugin, by request.

The plugin's actually the most normal thing here. It's PurestWarm, but better. I was asked for a version of PurestWarm with a dry/wet (which would make it even more subtle and gentle) and then I thought, why not TWO dry/wets, one for either side of the waveform? That way you could massage both the positive and negative sides of the wave (seen briefly in the video: I wiggle the cursor around to show which side's being reined in by which slider) to taste, or both at once.

And so that's what PurestWarm2 is (plus, ultrasonic filtering added for use at high sample rates). It's also using a performance tweak I hit on, defining the filter coefficients when the plugin's instantiated, rather than once every sample buffer. Not a complicated thing, but for anyone who made use of PurestWarm, this should count as a nice upgrade. And it's a direct request: since I was asked for PurestWarm but with a dry/wet, how could I not?

The video I've made will look SUPER different. This is me in British Columbia, way the heck up in Canada away from everything. Even getting decent internet's been tricky. But it's also me trying out new things, and learning to make proper videos and not just grab the output of OBS and call it a day. There'll be more… one of the things I did before putting all my home stuff in storage, was capture a bunch of great vinyl records with an eye to making Evergreens again. If all goes well I can make and upload some of those while I'm still up in Canada… plus, I've got a batch of plugins ready to go, including the amp sims people have been asking for.

If you're wondering… the little montage at the end is a glimpse of my life here in Canada. The kitty's one of several who live here, and my lap is totally covered in cat hair (it's been years since I lost my last pet cat to old age, so there's something I'd been missing). The town's a little oil town in Canada and we're not going to be staying, but here we are for now: and the baked goods and eggs are Ukrainian Easter tradition, all by my lady love, who's of Ukrainian and Indigenous heritage. And yes, it tastes as good as it looks :)

Enjoy the plugin, and be patient as I teach myself Final Cut Pro and learn to make videos properly. And I hope you like what I'll have in weeks to come :)

Chris, I hope you don't see this as inappropriate, but I think you're just adorable and represent all that's good in people. Your lady friend is one lucky woman, and we're lucky top have you to constantly explore and improve the sonic soundscape for musicians.

Take a look at Davinci Resolve for video editing.. free unless you need 4k export (and a few other things) and generally designed a bit better than the old favourites.

On another note I prototyped something like this (in bidule) a few years ago, but with no aliasing protection or oversampling. Thankfully you're doing a better job of releasing these permutations! Great stuff :)

Y'know I think I need to go to bed. Finished another 12 hour night shift and you can start seeing things when you get tired enough - I read the title and thought it said PussyWarmer2. And this thread is not anything like what I thought it might be. I'm actually quite disappointed, but not in the plugin I hasten to add, but I also wonder why on earth I thought we might be talking about PussyWarming2 in KvR outside of Hyde Park Corner. :scared:

hope you get some fantastic aurora up there :)

Aurora is a great name for a plugin, can be a spinoff of Aura :ud:

If I see any I'll try to get it on B-roll camera footage, and if it gives me ideas for plugins that will be awesome :D

MWB is cantankerous and prone to false positives but has helped block some actually malicious stuff for me over the years. In this case I think it's safe to assume that is a false positive, I got one too on one of the Desk plugins IIRC in the Airwindows pack. Run it through Virustotal and see what the consensus looks like, if there's just one outlier chances are it's nothing to worry about and you can whitelist it.
