Re: [PD] reverb in pd
Sorry to resurrect this old thread, but I downloaded these IRs when they were available and am wondering if they're definitely 100% free and open for any use. I have students that would want to work with them, but don't want to officially recommend that and pass the .zip on unless I can be sure there are no copyright issues.

Re: [PD] reverb in pd
They did not have permission to make those IRs, but Casey from Bricasti informally said they were fine to use since they are not really close to the actual unit. Static IRs don't capture the modulation and randomization in high end reverb units (Lexicon PCM, Eventide, Bricasti) so you don't get the parts of the algorithm you pay big bucks for. That is incidentally the main difference between the reverb in a sub-$200 Lexi or TC and one costing 10x that! Plate reverbs can be pretty accurately captured and the IR takes up a lot less space than an EMT 140. The commercial plugins like Altiverb have much better samples than the freebies unfortunately.

[PD] RK4 for Pd
Hi all!I would like to know whether there is any object or abstraction available to perform numerical integration (at control or audio rate, whatever) for Pd.Any examples around there? Thanks in advance!Josep M ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
Re: [PD] RK4 for Pd
Runge-Kutta is for integrating functions that you know a formula for. So, at least in terms of signals in Pd, there's nothing better than the simple recursion formula (x is input, y is output): y[n] = y[n-1] + x[n] Now, you may also want to scale by the sample rate y=integral(0 to t, x*dt) Then, it's just y[n] = y[n-1] + x[n]/44100 (or whatever sample rate) In z-transform terms we get: Y(z) * (1 - z^-1) = X(z) or Y(z) = X(z) / (1 - z^-1) which tells us we have a single real pole at z=1 So, the object I think you want is just [rpole~ 1] And you can apply the scaling by the samplerate as needed. for messages, I don't know. To integrate them over time, you would have each value multiplied by the time in between messages. Chuck On Wed, Aug 17, 2011 at 4:10 PM, Jeppi Jeppi jepp...@hotmail.com wrote: Hi all!

Afterthought--suppose you do have a formula that has some nasty integral that you can only compute numerically. Put it into expr--then we could implement the RK4 method with messages and some patching. Or maybe make some implementation with expr~, although it could be a bit more difficult. I guess it just depends on the application you want to create. Chuck ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
