Compressors and reverbs are hard. I plan to take a shot at a compressor (after I have a gate that works smoothly - for practice), but (classic) reverbs are a whole area in themselves that I don't really want to get into. Juhana (who wrote gverb) was working on a new version, but I havn't heard form him for a while. > almost > all wacked out FX plugins. I havn't heard any requests for them yet. I remember a DX plugin for windows called Pi that was really cool. I use a lot of odd stuff, but I usually use a nord modular as you can knock together wacky effects v. quickly. I could transcribe some of ny nord patches into C I guess. > parametric EQ Do you not like my RBJ implementation? I know the tripple doesn't work, but the single sounds v. nice to me. I don't have any high quality monitoring hardware, so it could be theres some roughness I havn't heard. If so I can move it to doubles, and add a better pair of headphones to my xmas list ;) I use some senheisers that are getting on a bit, and my monitors are well past it. > spectral delays.

Add a convolver to that list. A LADSPA plugin that talks to the BruteFIR deamon would be great, but I can't think of a good way to do it. > >> * no jamman/echoplex-like real-time looping devices This was to be my first jack project. I have some good ideas for a self scalling/limiting looper. I use hardware loopers a *lot*, and I've been waiting for jack for exactly this reason. I don't think it should be done in LADSPA as you need quite a ticght binding between the UI and the DSP code. For reference my plans for today are: Delete some of the plugins that are rubbish. Try to fix tripple parametric Last bugfix and zipper checking round of uber-delay. Release Watch lord of the rings And over xmas/new year: Install ALSA and co. on laptop, then Write gate Write psycho-acoustic panner Write plade reverb (with raytraced physical modelling) Write jack based looper. Write some more LADSPA GUI's If anyone wants to add to that list speak up now. - Steve
