Dripstone high damping

brusky · Jan 21st 2019

Hi, I have not yet downloaded the new beta with the reverbs. Does anyone know if paramaters were added to dripstone such as this request here?

Quote from Per

I’d like to see a separate dripstone “high damping” setting, one that doesn’t reduce the volume of the effect but cuts the highs a little just for the dripstone effect.

Quote from Per

For me yes and I just think it should be adjustable rather than preset. If you listen to those classic records you hear the “dripstone” effect and you hear a good amount of treble in the signal itself but the drip is often darker or more muffled sounding, it somehow feels less “even”. It’s possible there’s another route to this sound?

Would there be any chance of an LFO for spring length? I love the effect you get while adjusting this setting.

The new 5.7 Addendum covers it a bit:

The spring reverb has the following controls for high frequencies:

- High Damp

- High Cut

- Spectral Balance

There is a also a spring length control, but no indication that it can be controlled by an LFO.

Probably not. Cool idea

Thank you. I believe Per was asking about high damping parameters but dedicated to just the dripstone, rather than the overall spring. Is it possible to tweak ony the dripstone this way?

Unfortunately it's not there yet, mate, but I remember and supported the request, and in at least one case a member of the team was right there to hear it, so if it's any consolation, Kemper's aware of it.
