Matching Gain Before And After Effects

[Casmat]

@ustk ahh ok! Thanks!

[Casmat]

@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.

@Lindon ahh ok! Is there a gain meter In hise I can use to help evaluate the change?

I strongly suggest you stop what you are doing and carefully and completely read the API documentation

@Lindon Sorry, was thinking of a node in scriptnode.. didn’t think to check on the api! Thanks for your help!

[ustk]

@Casmat Each time you duplicate a signal, it gains 3dB. From here it's easy to determine what to do if you have it four times (hint => 4=2x2)

@ustk thanks!

@iamlamprey can you share the Snippet?

Thanks

@fpelle Sorry this was 3 years ago and I don't have that snippet anymore, I'm no longer using HISE or making virtual instruments, I just stick around here and follow what people are up to

[d.healey]

@iamlamprey wah! But what happend to neat player?

[A Former User]

@d-healey the source is still on github, i stopped because it was bleeding money and i lost the motivation to keep making instruments (sampling, editing, etc)

[d.healey]

@iamlamprey Oh that's a shame. It seemed like you were onto a good thing.

[d.healey]

I could use something like this.

The level going into my scriptnode effect is X the level coming out is Y. Is there a scriptnode method to work out the difference and apply the reverse to a gain module so I get roughly the same volume out as in?

@d-healey Didn't we go over this? :face_with_tongue:

[d.healey]

@aaronventure Apparently not, see my last post in the thread

@d-healey
You need an automatic gain detector and gain updater to compensate the I/O gain difference in the scriptnode, right?

Which kind of effects will there be?

[d.healey]

@orange Yeah. I have a convolution node followed by a filter.
