BINAURA STEREO BANK 01 SpinCAD Designer Bank Dump

BINAURA STEREO BANK 01 SpinCAD Designer Hex Dump

The links above are my first release of stereo FV-1 patches. Some were created from scratching a couple were modified from existing patches found on the web.

There are four files. All are zipped. The 1st one contains the single [8] SpinCAD Designer files, the 2nd has the single [8] SpinASM files), next is the SpinCAD Designer bank dump, and the last one is a hex dump of the entire SpinCAD Designer bank. Below are the names & descriptions of each patch as they are in the bank (set of 8 patches).

NOTE: These SpinCAD Designer files were created with SpinCAD Designer v:1035 and might not work with earlier versions of SpinCAD Designer.

SpinCAD Designer is an open source Java project which allows creation and audio simulation of patches for the Spin FV-1 audio DSP chip. It should be used with the Java Runtime Environment or Java Development Kit 1.8 or later. It has been tested on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Very cool man, can’t wait to give them a try! Thank you for putting those out there.

 

[ClippyTheDiode]

Very nice! Gotta get my build going. Can't wait to try some stereo stuff.

 

[Feral Feline]

Thank you for sharing these!

Especially looking forward to trying out the Hyper Flanger.

I also have a Barber-Pole Flanger I've been working on. Problem is that it is in mono and it's right at the 128 code-line limit for the FV-1. Every time I try to modify it for stereo operation, it edges over that 128 code-line limit. I struggle with ASM and not satisfied with the redactions I have to make in the middle to add the stereo in/out lines at the beginning and end. It sounds pretty awesome in mono, but I want to port it to stereo for the Binaura.

I'd be happy to have a mono Shepard Barber-Pole flange, too!

Finally got around to loading these, good job, all of them are very useable..I really like the reverbs and chorus echo well done! Thank you for sharing these!

Thanks! Glad you like them. There's another bank coming in a couple months. Hopefully by Christmas.

I have this thread bookmarked for when I figure out how to load them. Thanks!

I am waiting on some parts for my first Binaura build so I have be working on some stereo patches for it in SpinCAD. I am new to SpinCad so I am not familiar with the nuances. I loaded up the set above and they all seem to have some really hot output. A lot of digital distortion. Is that normal?

There should not be any digital distortion in the patches in the OP of this thread. If you're getting distortion, something is off about the setup.
What are you running specifically?

MacBook Pro M1Pro chip. Spincad 1035. I am wondering if it may be the audio source files I am using.

D.I. Guitar tracks recorded direct in Logic and exported as 16bit 41k wave files. Perhaps they are too hot. I will try dumping them to waves at -6db.

Also. I have lost numerous patches that say they have saved and are just blank when I attempt to open them. Spent a couple of days on one of them. Very frustrating.

Are you running line out of the MacBook into the pedal?

Mind you, the SpinCAD Designer audio out only method of auditing SpinCAD Designer patches is not the best method of auditing SpinCAD Designer files. I only use the SpinCAD Designer audio testing for quick checks. I always final-audit finished SpinCAD Designer files exported as SpinASM files loaded into an EEPROM and played thru an actual FV-1 circuit. It's entirely possible that the interaction between the SpinCAD Designer audio out transfers are injecting or otherwise somehow introducing any distortion. I've never conducted such auditing in the manner you describe.

No, I am still waiting on parts to finish the pedal. This issue is in SpinCad when creating and listening to the patches in SpinCad.

Yeah, that's a SpinCAD Designer issue.

Is the file save a known issue as well?

Good to know. What about the level, scope monitoring, any opinion on their accuracy?

Until I finish the binaura build I don't have a way of testing the stereo patches, since I assume stereo patches will not work with my mono fv-1 builds. And outputting the stereo files to a mono signal will not provide an accurate representation.
