Hi Guys,
I just finished the back end work to get the DP Pro small reverb running in PARIS. All that is left to do is some interface cleanup.
This thing sounds really good. I put on an Amy Mann song, turned down the bandwidth a bit, and soloed the effect return. It sounded like I was backstage at a club while she was playing live.
The reason I decided to do this is that I wasn't able to get a small room sound that I was happy with out of the stock room algo. There always seemed to be too much flutter. I'm very happy with this. The sense of space is there without the reverb tail.
I'm going to copy all the small room based presets out of my DP4 as closely as possible.
I've also been going through source code and reading some documents that James M. helped unearth (thank you so much!), and I have plan. I was planning to do all kinds of re-writing of the PSCL and scherzo, but I think that's just going to take too long. I was looking at some header files that Edmund sent me before...well...before...and they have all the code that the PARIS app calls to open up the EDS effects engine. I could probably work that into the ASIO driver with minimal fuss. I could also probably use it to spoof the original dll and inject a new VST subsystem into the PARIS app. I'm not sure if there is much appetite for that anymore, though.
I may still embark on a major rewrite of the PSCL and scherzo after the ASIO is done, but I think I should get something finished sooner than later.
Of course, I have a young family, and time is incredibly tight. I'm doing my best, though. I'll have the reverb done by the weekend at the latest.
All the best!
Mike
