VST Effect - Mix (50/50) not taking effect (Latest 2.1.0.0)

Post by Elven Spellmaker »

Hey there Kenneth, long time no see!

I have a bug in this latest version of SynthFont which means the option for Mix (50/50) isn't currently working, and so Replace is always used.

As an example I'm using Kjaerhus Classic Reverb on Grand Hall setting, but I want 50/50 instead of Replace and it's not taking effect since this version.

Any help would be great thanks!

Hi Elven!
Welcome back!
Yes, I am not surprised. Introducing support for the 64 bit version was a major task. Especially support for VST plugins, as they might need to go through a bridge (64-to-32 or 32-to-64), so...
But I will do my best to fix it for the next version. If you are ready to help me I will hand over a version for testing soon. Which architecture? 64 or 32?

My SynthFont says it's a 32-bit version though and the plug-ins are 32-bit I assume

EDIT: I just spotted the x64 version and the same issue applies on that too

Yes, I know it is the same problem in both - although the fix is quite different.
Here is a fixed 32 bit version, to begin with:

NOTE: The Mix 50/50 was actually wrong. It was more like 100+100, so it increased the overall level by a factor of 2. This version makes it right. And in addition, as a bonus. you can now choose the amount of "wet" in the mix.

Here is the 64 bit version:

This file also includes the VST bridge required for using 32 bit VST plugins. The "mix fix" is in both files.

A new official version, 2.2.0.0, is now available. Among other things, the behavior of the "Mix" processing mode for VST effects has been changed.
