🧵 Still amazed by this granular delay plugin, AudioDamage AD061 Descent.

I had tried a setup that resembles my #Soma #Cosmos effect engine in the preceding toot. However, the #Guitarix looper is kinda difficult for me. So I remembered there is a quite crazy #looper for #vcvRack. Thus I tried to re-implement the entire #Carla-based setup in #VCV.

It is very easy to use MIDI controllers in VCV. (Guitarix looper was horrible for that.)

It sort of worked. What's difficult perhaps for many people, the routing and controlling, is easy for me as a nerd. VCV has plenty of interesting modules to do whatever to your audio signals.

Yet what it really doesn't have that much is decent equalizers, or a working noise gate. So it's time for rack as a VST host again. And… it doesn't really like to run multi-threaded on my system. My PC is an Xeon with weak single core performance, but using all its 16 CPU cores, it is a beast… mh.

Unsure which route to follow. Plus, the looper in VCV is somewhat idiosyncratic, too.
