Sicer pa odkar imam Bricasti in TC6000 impulze naložene v Virsyn Reflect ne pogrešam kaj dosti...

Enkrat je Bruce Swedien dobro rekel, da se spomni ko so prišle prve reverb mašince, da so se enako kregali, da ti reverbi niso dobri v primerjavi s pravimi emt plate ali dobrim primernim prostorom...

I've seen speculation about there still being differences in sound. One of the commenters with demo code has stated there is a difference. Time for a bit of explanation.
One of the bugs I fixed had to do with a parameter called "Tap Slope". It's busted in the PCM96 (as strongly attested by zmix) and it's fixed in the plug. It does cause a small difference in sound, and I will fix it in the 96 when I've got time.
There were a number of small changes I made in the way reverb decay time is measured. This means that there will be tiny differences in the time between the plug and the box--especially at small room sizes. One thing I've learned is that mixers use their ears anyway and not the numbers. It's easy to tweak from the fader, which is why it's always in the soft row. I'll backfill those changes in the box too, when I've got a chance.
There are a number of other little tweaks, noticeable or not, that are in my notes. So I'm not slavish about duplicating old stuff--warts and all. They are still the same algorithms--with corrections. They are in no way crippled.
And finally, I've been spending time 'recalibrating' presets. In general, you want something like unity gain through a preset. In truth, you can't get there, since the response of a reverb is so strongly dependent on the source material. But I'm still tweaking gains.
So even if you turn off spin, you'll find that algorithms don't null. Should they?
I've just begun a week of badly-needed vacation. I'll monitor this list while I can, but responses will be infrequent. I'm not ignoring you for good--just for a while.

brikasti jih ma kolko ? ducat dobrih dual core procesorjev
PS: šest dual core procesorjev ja - http://www.bricasti.com/m7.html

tukaj pri bricastiju vidim pod "Tech Specs" da ima "6 state of the art dual core DSP"-je od analog devices-a.
To niti približno ni enako kakor Intelovi CPUji ali AMDjevi mlinčki... nVidia ali Ati GPU grafični procesorji.
Ti so mnoooooogo bolj sposobni kakor bilo kateri DSP!!! tudi dual core!!!
DSPji so prepočasni glede na sodobne procesorje, lahko se poglobiš in primerjaš specifikacije mlinčkov.
... imaš še FPGA tehnologijo ki ga recimo uporabljajo pri Fairlight Crystal Core tehnologiji (je pa FPGA zelo občutljiva na buge v programu in zelo zanesljiva, če jih ni...)...
CPUji so celo bolj od zadaj kakor GPUji (Tesla/ Cuda nVidiin princip recimo)... ampak to je že druga zgodba...

And this does not even factor in the wild memory access patterns that the Bricasti reverb algorithm requires.
When this is taken into account, it turns out that the memory bandwidth requirement is only half the problem. The access patterns just destroy the shared memory and cache resources of any standard computing platform, and represent the more difficult issue to overcome.
The Bricasti M7 algorithms cannot be run on todays commercial platforms. Better wait 5 years. Even then I doubt it.
The M7 has greater than 20x the performance of any other 1U reverb.
The M7 has 12x the performance of an entire TC 6000.
The M7 has the equivalent processing power of 5 Digidesign Accel CARDS.
If you want the best reverb you need to supply the horsepower. It is a simple fact. Reverb hardware is simply superior at running the best algorithms than the best Intel based platforms.
sicer sem pa prepričan da bo kr rastrgal gate tudi plugin

To je vse... Osnova pa je PC.
Software, ki krmili vso zadevo ter algoritmi, pa so seveda pisani za njihove DSP-je.

On tudi primerja jabke in hruške... dsp platforme in nato intel platformo (ne vem kakšno ima v mislih:)).
TC ima počasne dsp motorole, digidesign je tudi zelooo out of date, najnovejši dsp-ji od analog devices so mnogo boljši a zelo daleč od CPU in GPUjev (tudi UAD ima zelo frišne analog devicesove dsp-je).
Je pa res, da je potrebno CPU platformo optimizirat da ne dela preveč drugega kakor gnati algoritme tako kot recimo Mergingova Mass Core tehnologija, ki med drugim tudi določi kaj bo katero CPU jedro počelo...
Kot je Blaster rekel Lexicon 960L je prirejen PC, PCM96 je novejši sistem ampak tudi prirejen PC, Bricasti izgleda da ima pač še močnejši sistem, mi pa imamo skoraj vsi dvojedrne, štiri in večjedrne rač.
Kompjuterske moči kolikor hočeš razen, če se nočeš znebiti HW dongla, ki te ščiti pred cracki (iLok ipd. zaščite se dajo z nekaj truda uspešno hacknit).

Zame je to kar lep dokaz, da se prihodnost seli v racunalnik in da so to tudi najvecje firme pocasi primorane sprejeti.
Kar se mene tice - naravnost SUPER.

kot je rekel prej Blaster:
"Če koga zanima ... Lexicon 960L je navaden PC s Pentium 233MMX, 32Mb RAM-a in enim majhnim hard diskom, CD-ROM-om, disketnikom ter veliiiiikkkooooo DSP plato, na kateri vse utripa, lol ... Poleg vsega navedenega ima še eno grafični kartici podobno karto, ki omogoča prikaz na LARC-u in kontrolo preko LARC-a. Seveda ne laufa na XPjih ali čim podobnim, ampak na Lexiconovem OS-u.
To je vse... Osnova pa je PC.
Software, ki krmili vso zadevo ter algoritmi, pa so seveda pisani za njihove DSP-je."
PCM96 je pač novejši sistem.
Pravijo, da ni frke zato so se odločili izdati native verzijo.
Sicer pa bo kmalu dosegljiv tudi uraden demo pa se bomo lahko prepričali (enim so talali demo že na AES-u v New Yorku).

Lahko ti jo naredim, ni panike. Pošlji mi impulz in podatke, kaj naj bi ta impulz "predstavljal" (algoritem, nastavitve...) da 960ko nastavim isto in ti lahko pošljem obe varianti.

Kar je sevede res. pravi plate-i in naravni prostori so neprimerno boljši. kaj čmo zadeve so definitivno zmer slabše. edina razlika je, da dons lahko že vsak snema..

Če koga zanima, lahko enkrat nardim test...
Lexicon PCM Plug-In vs. Lexicon PCM91 vs. Lexicon 960L
LP
Torej, a zdrži primerjavo z 960L ali ne?
Sicer bi skoraj lahko verjeli avtorju produkta, da je ta plug-in enako dober kot njihove top škatle, pa vseeno... test ne škodi... Kakšen je tvoj vtis, pa če lahko pripopaš kak primer z enakim algoritmom iz plug-ina in 960ke, bi bilo super.

To je bil odgovor od programerja.
Je pa res tudi da je rekel da je popravil nekaj bugov ki so bili prisotni pri SW-ju v HW kišti in je SW posodobljen v vtičniku... mogoče to?... ter da bo enkrat ko bo imel čas dal updejt tudi za HW kišto.
V bistvu pravi da razlike ne bi smelo bit ker ni logično, razen morda zaradi psihe oz. tistega ki primerja ...

Ampak se da napimpat tud plugin dost podobno očitno, saj so to ble čimbolj podobne nastavitve (po vrednostih, ne po dejansko slišanem). Pa tud določene nastavitve se ne da isto nastavit, ker majo različno skalo.
Ne vem kaj so mislili pri Lexiconu sicer....ampak...jaz ne kupim nobenga hardwarea od njih, dokler bojo plugi tako dobri. Glede na to da so pa še to skrekal...sej bojo propadli
saj so najbrž vedeli v kaj se spuščajo, tako da zihr majo neko računico. Saj jst zaenkrat še ne vem v čem je fora, da so sploh tako dober plugin izdali, in si nardil tako konkurenco hardwareu. Sej so vedli, da jih rusi komaj čakajo.

Je pa sigurno res da se ga da napimpat isto SW kot HW ! (OT: isto je pri Fatso-tu HW & SW, iste nastavitve , zelo podoben sound, če pa daš enga v proti fazo ga napimpaš natanko isto kot HW, tako je z vsako high-end stvajo, ki je emulirana na ta način.
Sem pa še davno opazil, da je zarlika pri reverbih ta, za moj okus zvenjo HW-ski reverbi dosti boljše če imajo v škatlji-ohišju vgrajen napajalnik, kot pa da so na adapter !! Ne vem zakaj, mogoče samo psiha
