Phaser

A great sounding phaser module. This is running in optimised ASM but the DSP code is provided which is always a nice and thoughtful touch.
The author has provided a test and demo environment which is always appreciated.

Random waves with 4-way morphing oscillator

Click a button and you get 4 different randomly generated waveforms. There is an x-y pad (joystick) to control morphing (cross fading) between all 4 waveforms depending on the X-Y pad position.
In addition there is an LFO with speed, upper and lower range limits and the LFO can be turned on or off.
Inside the schematic you can set the desired threshold that determines which pair of oscillators get the LFO treatment, based on the x-y pad position.
The Y-axis fades between Osc 1 and 2 and the X axis between Osc 3 and 4.
The author has provided a basic test environment with an ADSR inside the schematic.
The range of sounds this can produce is quite remarkable and I spent ages fascinated by what can be generated and how the morphing can affect the result.

Spogged: Loads! All my changes were concerning preset management. I had to give every control a unique parameter name. I made it so the waveforms, when recalled from a preset, updated the wave table readers. I added preset support for the X-Y pad. Finally I made 3 presets to demo the module in action. Now you can preserve in a preset anything that is created for further use.
I must add that this appears to have been very much a work in progress and I'm sure the author would have got the preset things sorted in time. Whenever I find something like this I always wonder what the author had in mind for the future development.

Multiline text/menu editors

These editors allow you to make nice looking text lists which can be used for making menus. It looks to be reasonably straighforward to modify the number of entries. The first version gives you good basic functionality whilst the second version gives far more options for appearance and includes a title entry at the top.

Spogged: Added outputs for index number and current string, including the edit box.

Bit crusher and sample rate reducer

Personally I can never understand the need to actually reduce sound quality but hey, if that's your bag of fish then this seems to do it admirably well :lol:
At least you can make your modern pristine samples sound like they came out of a Fairlight.

Here is the latest of this->
https://www.sendspace.com/pro/dl/160oy1

The sample rate reduction is called decimation.

This updated file is necessary because the decimation was bugged somehow.
I did it quite simply myself and it seems OK now

The plugin is now called d1g1t

edit- this technique is real cool IMO,
it means with careful tweaking u can sound like a NES,
without running a GameBoy

Thanks for that nix.

A great demo tool for aliasing too!

What is the license to all these wonderful project files? Is it allowed to incorporate some of these designs into a new synth? Pardon my ignorance, I'm clueless to what I can and cannot do with these files.
