Hi Hermann! On 05/12/2018 19.50, Hermann Meyer wrote: You should of course experiment and organize as you like and enjoy. I'd like to offer the following as food for thought: As a user, I care about being able to load and share (old) Ardour sessions without breaking plugin references and with the least possible effort in hunting down package dependencies. In this regard, plugins being moved into or between collections makes me nervous. I don't see an issue with 28 ... or 56+ plugins in one collection ;) Plugins changing in sound, especially if they are new, is to be expected, of course. As (potential) packager, I'd have to wonder how to deal with either many single plugins and/or the shuffling. Maybe you could establish one collection that is clearly marked experimental, "everything may change drastically, don't package this" and another that is stable, for production use? If further differentiation is required, I think doing so based on quality will be hard, by topic much easier. -- Thorsten Wilms thorwil's design for free software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com/

Will be soon in the collection. :-) I wonder if you build it with a 40V or a 60V power supply? This makes a huge difference here in the simulation. For reference here is the frequency plot of the BoobTube at 40V https://www.directupload.net/file/d/5293/dypm55xc_png.htm and here with 60V https://www.directupload.net/file/d/5293/hc2ywbbz_png.htm and this is the response of the ValveCaster (12V) https://www.directupload.net/file/d/5293/l8jhh3sv_png.htm regards hermann

So I put both in it and add a voltage switch, so we could compare the simulations on 40V and 60V. Also it comes with a MOD UI, easy to build and use on the MOD. I've used it the last few hours on my MOD in front of the CreamMachine and have a lot of fun. regards hermann

It does a much better job on the dynamic compression and as well in the noise suppression, then the BoobTube. To, the ValveCaster on the MOD sounds outstanding! Hint: I've added special for the MOD input:stage low setting a booster mod to the ValveCaster which I found in the net, which makes it the "bridge" to all other guitarix plugs on the MOD. regards hermann

Am 06.12.18 um 15:22 schrieb Christopher Arndt: Glade you like it. This is a simulation of the original Valvecaster circuit, the "gain" control the bias resistor of the first half tube, so the effect can't be completely suppressed even at zero setting. There floating around a couple of mods for this circuit, which I ain't have tried so far, but maybe I could include some of them, optional with a mod selector or so. Increasing the value of the gain controller is one of the mods, which may lead to a more suppressed effect on zero setting. I've to try that. regards hermann
