Befaco modules development blog

Since the last post, for Noise Plethora, I’ve:

  • added soft clipping to outputs (-5 → +5V), like hardware
    • includes assymetric nonlinearity for bottom section to get even/odd harmonics with high resonance
  • added DC blocker, like hardware
  • tuned/calibrated playability of resonances and grit quantity
  • couple of fixes to make sure Teensy objects sound (roughly) the same at different sample rates
  • various refactoring/cleanup

Just wondering if there is any other feedback before we move this towards a release in the library? I was maybe thinking of making DC block always on (and just removing the menu item). This is my first time releasing something with filters in a musical context (i.e. beyond DC/antialising) so any feedback there especially welcome.
