Description

Hi Folks,

This is a Spectral Convolver audio effect. It performs Cross Synthesis of two audio signals. The first signal is the Input audio and the second is from a granularized Sample. It convolves the first signal with the Spectral Amplitude of the second, or (if the double arrow button is pressed) it convolves the Spectral Amplitude of the first signal with the audio of the second. These are different.

The Sample has the same controls as my Grainery devices which are based off of Brendan McCloskey's incredible Granary Max Project found here:

In particular, you can independently Time Stretch, Pitch Shift and Scrub the Sample as well as other Grain controls.

I had to add a bypassable Limiter on the output because it can get extremely loud and also because it sometimes can be too quiet. It really depends on the Input material and the Sample. If it is too quiet, you can raise the Output level on the Limiter.

Have fun.

Update: I fixed the strange parameter names. Its always something.
