Thanks. Is "inharmonic distortion" the same as "enharmonic distortion"? I had never heard of the former but it has more search hits than the latter. If they are not the same we need to be clear. Gale harmonic distortion adds partials to the sound. That is, a signal of 220 Hz will be stacked up with...

A particularity of "Type utility" Nyq plug-ins should be that they are only invoked once, no matter how many audio-tracks are selected. Would that be a natural consequence of "not requiring an audio track"? Certainly for the plug-ins mentioned in the first post, this behaviour would be desirable. (...

I support Steve's proposal in its entirety. In addition to gathering existing tools, that do not manipulate sound in one menu, it would allow us to manage our (Nyquist) plug-ins without modifying the programs preferences. That's especially true for the majority of plug-ins that are not shipped withi...

Ok, let's launch a feature request (-discussion).

Yes, It's a good idea to integrate the tempo conversion into the quick calculator. I love that plug-in, most particularly for its ability to execute code snippets which you don't want to enter in the Nyquist prompt because there is already a greater chunk of code. Incidently, it may be the right tim...

Hi Steve Maybe it would be nice to add the conversion values for a new bpm tempo as well. There is always some confusion about which percentage values are to be entered in the different time sliding/tempo change tools in order to change the tempo to a new bpm value. I suggest to add a new control wh...

is not specifically for "tube distortion" but rather a distortion effect that offers a range of creative possibilities (not just "clipping"). The field is wide for creativity, even with the sparse controls we've defined so far. We can distort the Signal vertically (wave-shaping) and horizontally (p...

Ok, I've taken a first look at the broadcast limiter by Edgar. Since compressors and limiters are not in my province, I have to put some questions to you (Steve or others). There are three controls: Threshold Knee Limit "Output Level" As you can imagine, it's hard to find a bug if you don't know wha...

(Thanks Steve) Hi Jean The code should also work with your old audacity version since steve has replaced (diff s1 s2) with (sim s1 (mult -1 s2)). As you can easily test with my example above, the code works also when the drop out isn't exactly 0 (0.1 works still). As I said before, the code is not y...

Yes, these are just the controls I had chosen too. When I remember right, there is a soft clipping example by RBD, that has a kind of distortion effect. It changes the curved signal gradually to a square one (depending on how much the amplitude exceeds 1). I guess that's one of the simplest effects ...
