Anyone know of any Linux functional equivalents for Waves' L1 and Q10
modules?
I just need something close - and maybe it's a combo of plug-ins that'll
do the job, maybe it's just one app.
And, I don't require a GUI, I actually need to set it up as a batch
processing system anyway.
If you are not familiar with the plug-ins, the following is from the
Waves' site:
*L1:*
http://www.waves.com/content.asp?id=160
L1 Features:
*
Double precision internal processing
*
Lookahead peak limiter for maximum level
* Two types of dither
* Three noise-shaping curves for optimal control
* Maximum peak control with minimum distortion
* Requantize to 24, 20, 16, 12, and 8-bit output
* Sample-accurate peak hold metering
* Adjustable release time
======
*Q10 Paragraphic EQ*
http://www.waves.com/content.asp?id=161
Q10 Features:
*
Selectable number of bands
*
Frequency response display
*
5 types of filters, bell, low/high shelf, low/high pass
*
Filter band control point for graphical modification
*
Control strapping
*
Versatile EQ Controls: Frequency, Gain, and Q
*
Low noise filters
*
Process Left and Right separately, strapped or mono
Most gracious thank you!

You can use the "fast lookahead limiter" and "triple band parametric"
(actually 3 band para + low and high shelves) EQ from my plugin
collection, using a batch processing capable tool like ecasound or
applyplugin.

Thanks Steve, I'm looking at those right now.

Thanks Steve, I'm trying your "triple band parametric" and I
can't get
the High-shelving freq to cut off fast enough. Perhaps I have the args
wrong: I have the last args as: -70 5536 1, but it seems a gentle
decline. Am I doing something wrong? I'd like to have a brick at 5k. Can
that be done?
Oh, BTW: why are the Q's limited to 4?

Dunno, it seemed like a good idea at the time I guess. The bounds are a
bit conservative, but thier just hints. The LADSPA spec says that
the plugin must accept any number, so try more radical numbers.

Maybe you can help me. what I want to do is have a brick-wall at 5500Hz
(with some adjustments below it, though I think I've got that with the
settings of the parametric bands.) Do you think your hi-shelf with a
gain of -70 and a slope of (input number here) is just too shallow of a
slope to this filter for a wall?

You wont be able to get a really serious brickwall with the highshelf, its
only 2nd order IIRC, you could try stacking a load of lowpass filters set
to the same cutoff, but you will get some sreious phase shift I think.
Brickwall filters, by thier very nature tend to have side effects or be
very CPU intensive.
