Hi,
I read on spicy sound website: "However todays computing power allows to
do so almost in real-time!"... do you think you'll get it real-time?
no,
not any more.
Without oversampling, small circuits run /almost/ in real-time. However
the posted 3 seconds of guitar took almost 4 mins to be processed with
ngSpice simulating at 1s/(64*48k) timesteps.
4 mins? OMG! :-\
indeed - at least it scales linearly with decreasing timesteps ;) - for
guitar a *8 or *16 oversampling is sufficient. ngSpice is clearly is not
suitable to be used as audio-effect; yet it's handy to test&debug
audio-circuits, or even create convolution samples.
Does anyone here have access to the full version of

VST plugin? - It would be interesting to know if ngSpice-snd samples can
be used to program it.

I've Taylor-expanded a convolution integral, and started to look for
some papers. The maths is not too wicked after all; but coding a
volterra transfer function best with CPU optimization is no laughing
matter.. - I've chatted with a physicist friend who has access to some
pro-maths software to crunch integrals and product series and experience
doing so - I'm gonna spend a few weeks with Florian during the summer
and 'll get back to you guys. ATM my ToDo list is way too overloaded and
just glimpsing at bruteFIR or aliki: this is no small project either!
