Loading ...It has been a while since my last post here, but I’m back! I had access to the French version of this book, thanks to the publisher.
CUDA is now in the trend, and there are several books, one of them I’ve also reviewed.

Note: this review is not based on the final version that is now available (June the 28th), but on the MEAP one. There may be some differences between the final draft and the one I based my review on, although I don’t expect many, and certainly not any huge change.

We have to cope with optimizing serial codes, and programming parallel and concurrent ones, and this means that all coders have to cope with this paradigm shift. If computer scientists are aware of the tools to use, it is not the same for the “average” scientist or engineer. And this is the purpose of this book: educate the average coder.

Since last version, the GUI was changed, and mainly the automation has been fixed. As such, old parameters are no longer valid, sorry…
The code is now available under the GPL2 on github and on Sourceforge.
The plugin can be download on the Sourceforge project page.

(1 votes, average: 5.00 out of 5) Loading ...I’m pleased to announce the release of my first VST plugin (Windows 32bits), based on the simple overdrive prototype.
It is a mono filter, with an oversampling of 2 to 32, based on polyphase filters, and the undersampling is done after an 8th order Butterworth lowpass filter with a cut frequency of 22kHz.
The source code will be available (under the GPL) in the future if there is interest in the plugin and its support. The exact way it works will be explained in a future blog post.
The audio plugin is available on Sourceforge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/qtvst/files/QtSimpleOverdrive/
If you find any issue, please submit it on Github: https://github.com/mbrucher/qtvst
Please note that the oversampling can be quite CPU intensive (on my laptop, an Intel Core2 T7200, using an oversampling of 4 at 96kHz uses the full power of one core).

The source code is still on Github (https://github.com/mbrucher/QtVST), but it won’t always contain the source code for each VST plugin. The next plugin I’m working on is based on the overdrive I’ve blogged about some months ago.
The download page: https://sourceforge.net/projects/qtvst/files/
