"Freeverb" port...

[Shifrin]

Ok, here is an attempt at converting the 'Jezar' Freeverb code to SM. There are a few things to note :-

* My allpass filter is somewhat different to that in the source (which doesn't seem like a 'proper' allpass filter...). That could account for a more metallic sound - I'll look into this further!

* There may well be some bugs, this was ported pretty quickly!

* It does sound nice with a decent level of damping applied

Thanks

Actually, I wrapped it into a VST effect with the little knobs on to control it and tested it out in my sequencer with various synths/drums/samples etc and it's surprisingly good! Any bugs or anything let me know and I'll update it (or if I find any myself etc).

It's very simple to add a pre-delay to it too - but that wasn't in Freeverb so I left it out

Very Nice work !!!

I think there's suficiently good to work as a Synth effect.

On the predelay issue, is easy to add it externally, so better don't include in the reverb itself

Yep, it's not bad at all is it. Thanks to NAS for poiting me in the direction of the original Jezar sources, and to Jezar for making them public domain

My thoughts exactly

Woohoo
LATKs Freeverb Creakbox - Its gone mad round here and i love it

Really nice work here by the way Shif, Stuff like this really is making me see how infinitely powerful SM is compared to anything else.

Totally completely awesome!! Amazing.

Love your design style shif... the rectangle connections

Hehe, it's great that we have these lovely 'bendy' connections in SM but sometimes it's more clear (to me) to add a dummy module for the purpose of making a wire bend at a right angle

Oh yeah :-

I checked the entire schematic against the Freeverb source and they are now (to my knowledge) algorithmically identical, with one expection: My allpass filter is a standard feedforward+feedback comb design. The one in the source is 'weird' and when I implemented it I got a more harsh metallic sound. So I left my allpass filter as is. Everything else is the same as the source though!

Only thing left to do might be to add some denormal checking in the feedback paths of the filters.

Can you believe it, The actual Freeverb source is hosted at KVR DOH

This is great Shif!

You might be interested to know that you can create links with right-angle bends without the need for a 'corner' module. Go to Options | Advanced and set the link curvature to zero (straight). This allows you to do this:



It's not perfect though. For a start it's an application setting and so if you send it to someone else it might look different. Also, the interaction for the control points doesn't provide any mechanism for getting at links that are below the link that is on top.

That all said, if you want to get this effect you may still find it useful. I'm sure that this is something we will enhance later down the line.

I think Freeverb has a really nice sound to it

[Shifrin]

Thats interesting to know malc, cheers!

Oh just saw you posted that, any chance you could give the link? I tried searching KVR for it myself but came up with nothing but hits for archived forum messages. I'd be interested to compare the source with that which you posted a link to
