Question: are WDL_HeapBuf/WDL_TypedBuf are good for SIMD processing? any quick way to make them 16byte align?
Asked by olilarkin (93.158.79.x) on April 10 2013, 4:12pm
Reply on April 10 2013, 8:06pm:
    Not directly, you can easily do:
    class AlignedHeapBuf : public WDL_HeapBuf
    {
    public:
      void *getAligned(int alignAmt)
      {
        char *a = (char *)Get();
        INT_PTR off = (((INT_PTR)a) & (alignAmt-1));
        if (off) a += alignAmt-off;
        return a;
      }
    }
    
    Then call hb.Resize(size+15) and hb.getAligned(16) etc. not ideal, I know... :/

Question: why do people continue to ask questions about reaper when you've clearly stated not to?

    Yeah, people also email to say that they can't find the download link on reaper.fm... reading can be hard?

Question: (Continuing on Fadeport) Sorry, i expressed myself wrongly before. What i mean't to ask really was: is there a technical limitation (code/system wise?) that prevents the stock Faderport driver on REAPER to allow us to control the horizontal fader on the Envelope Panel? Or could the driver be updated to support that? Is it even possible to develop a csurf plu

    "(by stock driver i mean the one that comes with REAPER, not the one from Presonus!) also finishing the message below: Is it even possible to develop a csurf plugin for this purpose?" Yes, should be possible.

Question: Would you mind sharing REAPER's default 0dB pan law formula? I'm using 2*x + x^2 - 2*x^3 ATM, which seems pretty close...
Asked by Tale (77.170.68.x) on April 3 2013, 5:54pm
Reply on April 3 2013, 7:17pm (edited at April 4 2013, 2:10pm):
    For 'Stereo balance / mono pan (default)': panpos is -1..1, law in this case would be 1.0:
    
    gain=law*sqrt(2)* (1.0 + (sqrt(2) * 0.5 / law - 1)/(sqrt(2)-1) * (1/cos(panpos*0.25*PI)-1.0))
    
    leftscale = cos((panpos+1.0)*0.25*PI)*gain;
    rightscale = sin((panpos+1.0)*0.25*PI)*gain;
    
    I think that's right, if it doesn't work for you I'll copy and paste the C code.. (edit: removed some redundant code relating to the non-balance pan mode; edit again: fixed thxtale)

Question: REAPER API uses double for samplerate, is it 44.1? Why double anyway?

Reply on March 25 2013, 12:35am:
    That'd be 44100.0. double because you can do all kinds of nice things with non-integers.
