Not sure when this was released, but I just heard of it for the first time:
Evil Otto by Audio Damage: a #free OTT #compressor #plugin for #linuxaudio.

A really cool new #opensource #plugin has been released by TiagoLr: Sirial, a rhythmic #delay.

So I'm using this beautiful old #Sitala #WindowsVST, which is a dead simple drum #sampler player #plugin… triggered by #LspTrigger.

Now #LSP Trigger only triggers one note of course, but I'd like several notes to be played by the #Sitala #VST.

So far I am abusing #MidiChord, yet another magic tool by @x42, but it can't do chromatic clusters. 🤪 So I need to arrange my samples in the scale… which is possible, but it's less samples available than I would wish.

Any idea?

( @mosgaard … back on the #SoundDesign construction site for a a short while… need to pimp up those knocks on my bunker door, before running to the next #EvenTech thing. )

Kazrog (in collaboration with Michael Brauer) have released MHB Red—a Vintage Hybrid #compressor #plugin for #linuxaudio.

I just learned about an #opensource #linuxaudio #juno #synth emulation #plugin called Ultra Master KR-106:
kayrock.org/kr106/

ā€œA quarter century in the making […] DSP calibrated from hardware measurements, firmware analysis, and factory schematics […] 6-voice polyphonic […] original patches decoded from factory SYSEX […] per-voice component tolerances model […] Our goal is to make this as accurate as humanly possible, and we would love for you to help us get there.ā€


I recently had the pleasure of interviewing #developer, #engineer and #producer Dan Korneff from Korneff Audio, creator of legendary plugins like Chocolate Milk, and Pawn Shop Comp.

We discussed audio #plugin design, #analog inspiration, and using #linux for #proaudio workloads. šŸ˜Ž

#linuxaudio #interview


🧵 So, on my journey to live #PitchShift on #Linux with an #audio #plugin, I found #SpectralShift. This one is very good I think. However, it has too much latency for live use, so it's more for mixdown.

The old #MaPitchshift serves as an example for one of the reasons why #LinuxProAudio had a bad reputation in the past: It's practically useless. It does pitch shifting, but it only shifts by some magic floating point number which has no easy-to-handle relation to musical terms such as semitones or cents. The latency depends on the window setting, yet it is possible to sabotage the thing completely by nonsensical settings.

So I asked ChatGPT and it said the ratio is 2^(Semitones/12) – keep this in mind and your calculator ready. 🤪 This is actually sort of correct.

Turns out that the shifting of #MaPitchshift is too inacurate for musical use with a window size suitable for live use. So, giving up for now, back to outboard, my 21-year-old #Lexicon #MX200 is way better.

#LinuxAudio #vst #vstplugin


I found another interesting audio #plugin for #Linux: #reTuner claims to do good pitch-shifting for instruments generally too low or too high. Like 440Hz to 432Hz shifting.

There is a .deb package, yet unfortunately, the plugin installs to a non-standard place.

I decided to symlink /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/vst3/KV-reTuner.vst3 to /usr/lib/vst3 instead of adjusting plugin paths in all my plugin hosts.

I don't have an urgent need for it, but I'm sure I will use this at some point.

(Actually I am looking for a possible replacement of the pitch shifter in my Lexicon MX200, which I still do love… yet the ADCs of the Lexicon are a sad story, and the old Boss compressor sitting in that rack together with a cheap Alesis tube preamp isn't that reliable any more.)

I haven't tried it yet, but I just found out, it finally has arrived! I have been waiting for this…

🧵 The #automixer #plugin for #Linux!

For those who don't know, automixer is a circuit invented by a guy named #DanDugan. (Today: an algorithm.)

Basically it is a tool that compares all mic channels to all other mic channels. In effect, lowers mics not in use. When multiple mics are used, it averages their levels – very quickly.

Most good digital mixing consoles have a built-in automixer these days, such as the #AMM by #AllenAndHeath. I use it all the time when live-mixing dialogue. Especially with headset omni mics, this isn't a handy tool, it's a live-(sound-)savior. (I once used it on 16 open omni mics, would have been a feedback orgy otherwise.)

If you quickly need to mix down a multi-track recording of spoken live dialogue, this thing will save your behind.

If it works as intended, which I'll have to try.

Things are slowly picking up speed again in terms of my #linuxaudio activities.

Today, I am excited to present another #developer #interview with the #opensource heroes behind Punk Labs—Oren (aka PolyVector) and Tara (aka Skunkie)! šŸ’„

AudioDamage AD061 Descent won't let me off the hook.

It's a granular delay/reverb #plugin that is a lot of fun. However, I now found out that what I'd like to have is something that is more related to the granular delay in my beloved #Soma #Cosmos ā€œDrifting Memory Stationā€.

The big deep bass #drone to rule them all, with sparkling mid-high freq stars!

So, adding to yesterday's video, I added a stereo auto panner and a looper. The #Guitarix looper isn't that great to use, for real fun I'd need to get my AKAI button controller to interact.

It's the first time I am considering taking a PC-based setup on stage one fine day. The sound is just too great…

I usually use a simple Mooer RedTruck for playing fretless bass live, but in comparison to the FX by TC and the Eden WTDI + Descent plugin, it sounds cheap.
