ImpulseLoader Mono/Stereo LV2 plug released

by Hermann Meyer

ImpulseLoader.lv2 is a simple, robust, mono IR-File loader/convolver plug allowing to browse the File system for IR-Files to load them. As well supported is drag and drop, when the host support that. It provide a pop up menu for quick access to all IR-Files in the current loaded path. IR-Files will be resampled on the fly to match the session SampleRate. If the IR-File have more then 1 channel, only the first one will be loaded. Controls for input gain and Dry/Wet been available. The input gain didn't affect the dry part of the signal so a mix could be easily created. Project page is here: https://github.com/brummer10/ImpulseLoader.lv2 Release page is here: https://github.com/brummer10/ImpulseLoader.lv2/releases/tag/v0.2 The Release page provide the source package and as well ready to use binary bundle packages for Linux x86_64 and Windows 64. ImpulseLoaderStereo.lv2 is a stereo version of this, providing the same feature set, except that it provide stereo channels. If a IR-File have only one channel, it will use this on both channels, if it have more then 2 channels, only the first 2 channels will be used. Project page is here: https://github.com/brummer10/ImpulseLoaderStereo.lv2 Release page is here: https://github.com/brummer10/ImpulseLoaderStereo.lv2/releases/tag/v0.2 The GUI's been made with libxputty: https://github.com/brummer10/libxputty the convolution engine is based on zita-convolver and the resampler is based on zita-resampler: https://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/ Audio file handling is based on libsndfile: http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/ The source code of the GUI been released under the 0BSD license while the complete plugin itself is under the GPL v2+ license. regards hermann
