The ever popular CAPS Audio Plugin Suite reincarnates as v0.3.0, a major augmentation release.
CAPS is a LADSPA library that enjoys worldwide favour for its high-quality instrument amplifier emulation facilities. In addition it provides a sizeable assortment of no less sophisticated classic DSP units for daily use as well as some more exotic sound generators and effects. Most noteworthy addition is the new AmpV plugin which builds on the previous Amp efforts. A fundamentally revised circuit design and the emulation of power supply shortcomings make for a very mellow and differentiating tone especially at clean to moderately rough settings. The new CabinetII unit further enhances the discerning electric guitarist's digital sound setup by modelling five classical speaker cabinets; far more faithful than the previous Cabinet plugin it builds on, but with the same zero-latency advantage at still extremely low CPU taxation. Furthermore, the new Scape plugin (if played well ;) generates epic grooving soundscapes, the new ChorusII and PhaserII units provide fractally modulated variants of these classics and the new SweepVFII enhances its predecessor by allowing for modulation of filter Q. -*- This CAPS release compiles cleanly on x86-64 as well as with gcc-4.0. Many plugins have been renamed and all have been relabelled, which will unfortunately upset some host programs trying to load existing setups. Consult the README files in the distribution package for further details. http://quitte.de/dsp/caps.html http://quitte.de/dsp/caps_0.3.0.tar.gz Please forward as you see fit. Enjoy, Tim
