    Who Else Is Using the 'SpinCAD Designer' App?

    Well, that's a shame to hear. Perhaps you could run it in debug mode as shown above and see if anything suspect shows up. Edit - OK I just double checked on my Macbook Air running Monterey 12.7.1. The simulation indeed stops after a few seconds and can't be convinced to continue without...

    Who Else Is Using the 'SpinCAD Designer' App?

    Try running it in debug mode and you will see the generated ASM every time you make a connection or press "Start Simulation". Control panel settings changes don't recalculate the model. A little known secret is that even if you put more things in and push resources into the red, it will...

    Who Else Is Using the 'SpinCAD Designer' App?

    The main area where you are going to see strange differences between SpinCAD generated code and hand written examples is where the delay RAM is used. The modules had to be written so that the RAM segments could be relocated in a single pass. Perhaps it could have been done another way, but...

    Who Else Is Using the 'SpinCAD Designer' App?

    Well I do recall interacting with him back in the day but by the looks of it he has done a number of things that indicate he is also hand-writing Spin ASM. So, most honest answer is "I'm not sure".

    Who Else Is Using the 'SpinCAD Designer' App?

    You can of course edit the Spin ASM if you like. I'll spend a little time this weekend seeing if I can concoct something. I did not focus much on "infinite hold" possibilities when coming up with SpinCAD. Here are a few general concepts to deal with when "cranking the feedback". - too much...

    Who Else Is Using the 'SpinCAD Designer' App?

    Well, to be fair, it's a feature of the FV-1. It's the glue instruction that makes everything fit together just right. ;)

    Who Else Is Using the 'SpinCAD Designer' App?

    I do pop in here from time to time, feel free to ask questions about specific things, I'll try to help while I still remember. I don't actually use it myself too much any more but am beyond pleased at how many people have done really nice things with it. And of course there are things you...

    BINAURA STEREO FV-1 PATCHES

    @bSide I have not tested SpinCAD Designer on an M1 Mac (don't have one). You might be able to learn something by running it in debug mode. See: https://github.com/HolyCityAudio/SpinCAD-Designer/blob/master/docs/running-spincad-designer-in-debug.mode.pdf Regarding distortion, set up a bypass...

    Hydra tap tempo led

    FV-1 tap tempo (at least the ones I'm familiar with) will count sample periods between button presses then save this value. Then you use that number as the read pointer into delay memory, assuming that your delay buffer starts at address 0, and you have allocated enough memory (32768 is the...

    FV-1 DEV BOARD ...Now what? (noob woes)

    Perhaps the password it is asking for is your Mac's administrator password.

    How exactly does this work?

    I don't understand either of the first two questions. The "Time Base" shown on the UI only affects the "Scope" feature. I have pretty much finished transferring all the SpinCAD help content from my Patreon site (which was a stupid idea for this sort of thing) over to Gitbook (which is a great...

    Help with WRLX instruction

    It's always been free, so I'm not quite sure how to take that. :unsure:

    SpinCAD Designer "Coarse Delay"

    I think "Coarse Delay" was one of the first blocks I ever implemented directly in Java. It predates the "SpinCAD Builder" language. It has a self contained feedback loop as compared to the external one in the Three-Tap (or Triple-Tap) delay block, which is what I recommend you use instead...

    3 "head" tape/drum delay emulator design discussion and FV-1 patch

    As SpinCAD Designer doesn't implement pot skip routines in any blocks yet, I devised a way to fade the heads in gradually. This can be applied to things besides delays. I'm probably going to add a block that DOES do the pot skip on something like a 4 or 5 head delay concept in order to bring...

    Help with WRLX instruction

    A regular 1-pole filter rolls off at -6 dB/octave, which is rather gentle. Not exactly "vertical". The idea behind making it "shelving" is to set the point at which it stops going down, and rather flattens off again. If anything, it makes the filter "shallower" and more subtle than one which...

    Help with WRLX instruction

    WRLX and WRHX are only needed if you want your filter to be "shelving". RDFX followed by WRAX is just a 6 dB/octave low pass filter. I'm pretty sure the corner frequency is the same regardless of using WRAX, WRHX or WRLX after RDFX. I wrote an article about it behind my paywall but because...

    (stereo) Through-Zero Flanger with Doubler

    Flangers really sound better IMO with some feedback going on. Try both direct and phase inverted.

    SpinCAD Designer 0.98 build 1032 released

    https://github.com/HolyCityAudio/SpinCAD-Designer/releases Fixed introduced bug (build 1030) in simulator. Simulator again works whether or not scope is enabled. New "Vee" control block. Audio mixer blocks all have their lower level of "gain" preset at -18 dB rather than -24 dB. 4 to 2 mixer is...
