Matching Gain Before And After Effects

Yeah, The Measurement And Limitation On Timer Kinda Make This Hard For Output Gain Level.
It Works All The Time And Sometimes It Goes Too Down And Cuts The Signal's Volume.

Do you have access to the core.pma node in Scriptnode? I can't find it, pretty sure my build should have it

Natan

@iamlamprey No I Don't See That In The List
Eidt: I'm At The Latest Commit
Did Check My Previous Build, And No Such A Node "core.pma"
@Christoph-Hart Is This Available core.pma?

A Former User

If I can figure out how to subtract the value of one core.peak from another, I might be able to make a scriptnode version. But it would only affect things in the same scriptnode tree, not external effects...

decent chance im overcomplicating it as well

A Former User

Ok getting somewhere... it's a bit jumpy but I think I can improve on it

Probably all I can do for today since it's officially christmas in australia :)

You're Doing Great Man Keep It Up

@Natan Merry Christmas!

@iamlamprey
Mate, Have You Made This More Stable, And Smooth?

A Former User

@Natan Well for one it doesn't need a 16x oversample node

You could try playing around with the Smoothing setting for the gain, or wrapping either the gain, the core.peak, or both in one of the fixX_block nodes, or a frameX node.

Not too sure but

Hey!

Was wondering if anyone had any working version of this, I'm trying to replicate the same thing for a saturator, and it's not really working out..

Thanks!

Yarrr matey, which hise scallywag can save my day?? (bump!)

@Casmat Since the phase, the frequency content, or the "fullness" (reverb delay) of the sound will be severely modified by whatever effects you are using, the resulting gain is very hard (another way to say impossible) to predict. Therefore you need to compensate for this in each effect by ear, and probably automate it when the parameters are changing.
So basically it will be a gain module/node at the end of each chain that react to different parameter in a "weighted" manner

Casmat

@ustk ahh ok! Thanks!

@ustk i have this chorus module which is getting cloned 4 times, this creates a massive gain increase and since it’s cloned 4 times, is there a way to accurately reduce that gain?

Thanks!

@ustk just told you what to do...

Casmat

@Lindon I thought that since the chorus duplicated 4 times, then there’d be a accurate way (instead of predicting by ear) to set the gain back to a “normal” amount.. like somehow dividing by 4 and basically compensate for the 4x clone?

it really depends on the settings you are applying in the chorus effect - so do as @ustk suggests - for all settings evaluate the gain change and reverse apply this for each setting state.
