LEET LADSPA Plugins v0.2

So, you want to world-pwn3d the airwaves, do you? \x/elcome to the platform.

Carefully crafted LADSPA plugins, reprogrammed from other plugins to have 2 inputs and 2 outputs especially for use with ardour.

Version 0.2:

• Eq's were actually criss-crossing the lines a bit, this is fixed.
• Further optimizations added... all plugins should be a bit faster.
• Removed "special code" for P3 / PowerPC archictectures from modified TAP/SWH Ladspa code.
• Was causing unknown difficulties.
• takes more processing anyway, screw them
• Adjusted Chorus volume so it matches the volume without the Chorus

Any saved sessions using v0.1 should have their volume

adjusted cuz of this Chorus change

(should be 3dB louder with version 0.2)

• Ardour version 2.5 automatically turns 1x1 plugins into 2x2s.. but these "true 2x2s" should still use less processor than ardour "doubling" the plugins.
• Eq's don't process when gain is set between 0.01 dB to -0.01 dB now... this should help processing efficiency for the 8 band eq.

Version 0.1:

• A 2x2 1 band Eq with Bandwidth settings (modified from TAP Plugins)
• A 2x2 8 band Eq with Bandwidth settings (modified from TAP Plugins)
• A 2x2 FULL STEREO Chorus (modified MCP Plugins)

NOTES:

Why only 3 plug-ins? Well, I read on the ardour fora something like "So many ladpsa plugins, and all sux0rz!" So, I thought, why cram up the maintenance and listings with experimentals and just release the elitest of them plugins programmed.

Ardour2 needs some good 2 input / 2 output plugins for general use.

The CAPS 2x2 Eq have something wrong with them, according to watching their output on Jamin when using them through ardour2. Hence, I made these new ones.

The 8 band Eq (modified from TAP) uses a lot of processing, even though there is a check to see whether the dB for each band is 0 or not; which ought to make it "processing efficient", but such didn't seem to be the case. I assume a rounding error until pr0v3n otherwise. Hence the 1 band Eq.

I reprogrammed about 6 different LADSPA choruses and only put in the BEST chorus for this 2x2. Full stereo 180 degree phase shift between the ears.

FOR THE FUTURE: A 2x2 version of GVerb would be nice, as i think GVerb is probably the best existing LADSPA reverb. However, GVerb's code is pretty complex so I haven't gotten far with that.

-> Apparently, this 2x2 gverb was already done by Fons Adriaensen, which I had just missed the installation of. So, I recommend that one for 2x2 recordings.

BTW - I never check the damned email address for this "Google Code" - please contact me via email address inside source c0d3z
