Impulse Loader

+1 for impulse response eq, compressors not only for impulse reverbs

What exactly is an “impulse response loader”? :huh:
EDIT: Or better: What is it good for?

technology used in:

I’d love to have a native convolution,
but if it was as simple as your example, I couldn’t ditch Reverberate.
I love being able to change the start and end points, reverse it, stretch it, and apply an amplitude envelope.
On the other hand, maybe a native effect could work in conjunction with the Renoise sample editor,
allowing those types of manipulations to still be performed.
Or maybe I’m just being silly.
Need another beer, excuse me…

+1. i think this is a pretty original idea for a new and very versatile device, which will add many new possibilities to Renoise.

Sounds somehow very complicated. But anything that would improve the native reverb in Renoise would be very welcome. So +1 :)

bet an ‘offline’, non-realtime version could be scripted as the (multiply & add) dsp code is not that difficult.

I dont think it should be that hard for the devs, the Cabinet Simulator device looks like it is already based on impulse technology. (Am I right?)

I don’t think it is a good idea. Convolution reverb plugins exist for every platform supported (including linux). I would be happier if instruments were polished and disk streaming implemented rather than convolution reverb.

does it really matter? what i mean is, this is simply a feature suggestion thread, concerning whether you would, someday, like to see this particular feature in Renoise. the issue of whether one feature is more important than the other is not present here. i agree with you, but i don’t think it is the right place for such concerns.

(also, the fact that a plugin for this feature exists is, imo, not very relevant with respect to this request. many people would rather use Renoise native effects instead of plugins, and you could probably give the ‘already a plugin for that’ argument for loads of other feature suggestions as well)

In most cases I prefer native DSP over plugins too. I disagree that it is not important which feature is more needed - it is this subforum where users express their needs and expectations. That is why I wrote my post.

i agree on it being an important and relevant discussion. i just think opening this discussion up in this particular thread would derail it, as the thread is about the possible use of a Impulse Loader. not ‘right now as the next new thing in Renoise’, but someday.
but i may be the only one who is feeling this way, and this post does not help the derailment, so i’ll stop here.

I’ve done a few weeks ago a rough convolution script, but with reverb-like longer impulses it is SLOW beyond usability…

Please point me to an impulse reverb that runs on Windows, OSX and Linux, so I can load the same song on all three platforms without modifications when this plugin is installed. Thank you.

How does that help you with sharing projects cross-platform for collaborations? Or posting fully self-contained module files?

in this case I don’t think there is any plugin that will work on all platforms…

do you use all platforms to produce music?

i doubt that (would be impressed if he would!), but i think the question was more geared towards a use such as the one kazakore pointed out.

I use Windows and Linux, depending on situation, and collab with people on MacOS fairly often, so Yes in a way I do!

maybe you can limit the maximum amount of .wav data that your tool can import, so it would be useful for filtering instead of reverb? Would like to try it out! :)
