    Starting to use ChatGPT to write optimizer for SpinCAD

    @Cybercow I'm consulting the Oracle, pun not intended but unavoidable, regarding your issue. In MacOS, running Java on the command line will use this version. $ java -version java version "21.0.7" 2025-04-15 LTS Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 21.0.7+8-LTS-245) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit...

    Starting to use ChatGPT to write optimizer for SpinCAD

    @Cybercow I am doing some SpinCAD bug fixing and testing on the Mac today. I also got the "incompatible" error loading the Mary-H patch, but it works properly when I run it in debug mode for some weird reason. I only have a Macbook Air so I'm probably not going to set up my development...

    Starting to use ChatGPT to write optimizer for SpinCAD

    If you want to see what is going on, you can run SpinCAD Designer in debug mode and watch the console. Should work on Mac or Windows as long as Java is in your path. e.g., in a terminal window: java -jar .\SpinCAD-Designer-build-1043.jar

    High level analysis of some common FV-1 reverb programs

    I've been looking at FV-1 reverb code for more than ten years, and it's quite easy to not be able to see the forest for the trees. I asked Claude AI to highlight similarities and differences between the available reverb programs posted in the "Free" section of Spin's forum. Spinsemi Reverb...

    @Cybercow what is your JRE/Java version?

    Starting to use ChatGPT to write optimizer for SpinCAD

    Anyone else having any trouble with this release or patch? Triple checked it here with downloaded files, still works ok.

    Starting to use ChatGPT to write optimizer for SpinCAD

    There's nothing in the Mary Halvorson spcd file that should prevent loading in 1043. I just downloaded it here and it's fine. Not sure what's going on there. Do you see anything on the debug console that might give a clue?

    Starting to use ChatGPT to write optimizer for SpinCAD

    Hello Sir Cow, please see the attachment. Wow I'm so honored that .spcd is an accepted file format! I pushed ahead a little and incorporated the optimizer into everything and made sure the resources toolbar showed the correct post-optimization counts. I was also curious as to why the report...

    Starting to use ChatGPT to write optimizer for SpinCAD

    Okay, I am having to use AI for work now, so while I understand that in general it is probably going to be the end of us all, I thought I would try it on the dang optimizer problem. I switched from chatGPT to Claude as it has a better reputation for code generation. I now present to you the...

    Graphing FV-1 Filters Using Excel

    That's pretty cool. SpinCAD will let you simulate a patch and record the output to a file. If you supplied a WAV file that swept a sine wave over the frequency range you'd get a reasonably close idea by recording the output to a WAV (selectable in the Simulator menu). Give the input file some...

    SpinCad "Simulator" plays for two seconds, skips like a CD and stops.

    Last week someone volunteered via Github to look into this. Apparently, after they installed the Eclipse tools on their Mac, then the simulator started working properly. I've asked them to confirm JRE version but no response yet. I've always had some difficulty trying to update Java on my Mac...

    Stereo channel isolation of fv-1? Isolated instructions for L and R channels?

    I just checked an older build (whatever was already on my Macbook) and mono mode is not the default on the Output block.

    Dipping my toe in - FV-1 crossover/signal correction; which offering is the best place to start?

    If you want to look at an existing FV-1 crossover/EQ program, search for "Active Crossover" on this page. https://www.spinsemi.com/programs.php

    FV-1 pitch

    1 second? (OP sent me a DM claiming the delay was 1 second). Typically you can expect to get half of the pitch shift buffer length latency IIRC, so 1 second does not sound right. Over at the Spin forum some guy figured out a way to reduce it, I'd suggest looking or asking over there...

    FxCore is great

    FXCore has been in production for several years and as far as I know it has no compatibility at all with Spin FV-1 source code. I would have liked that as well, but they had other things in mind.

    SpinCAD Designer release 0.98-1037 - fixed Drum Delay block

    I didn't put too much effort into the pitch shifter blocks of SpinCAD for reasons previously stated. You might wind up having to hand edit coefficients in Spin ASM or use something like a Pot skip structure to get discrete settings from a Pot input.

    Alternative PCB for Pythagoras circuit at PCBWay.com

    It's got 5 pins, and a push switch so 2 of those are for the switch. This leaves 3, which I assume are 2 quadrature outs and the common. You'd have to add logic or something like a PIC to that to get a parallel digital output. I assume the 30 position are the detents. I could be wrong of...

    (SpinCad)

    The last time I checked, which was years ago, I came to the conclusion that perhaps pitch shift down simulation in SpinCAD is not accurate. I spent quite a bit of time getting the chorus simulation to work properly but, as I didn't write any of that code originally, it was guess work. I sold...
