Coincidence that TinMan is another plugin of theirs, IIRC 😏

If you ever delete this video, we can't be friends.

I have absolutely no idea about compressor design, but I did some testing, and from what I discovered, the code that calculates the gain reduction `gr = -overdb*(cratio-1)/(cratio);` is actually correct. An equivalent formula, that's maybe easier to read would be `gr = -(overdb - overdb*(1/cratio));`, which basically calculates the difference of the uncompressed over-threshold level and the compressed level. The problem is that the value of overdb is roughly twice as big as it should be. Perhaps it has to do with the following line: overdb = 2.08136898 * log(det/cthreshv) * log2db; Edit: Turns out this has been discussed on the reaper forums quite some years ago: forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=125584

@StevieBoyesmusic

Removing that * 2.08...... bit I can make it null with inserting the same value inserted in the GR line, as shown in this video.

@Dan Worrall , I expect the problem isn't with the calculation of ratio (which really, truly should be correct), but with the value of "overdb" which is being multiplied by 2.08136898 (suspiciously close to your 2.1, eh?) on line 84 of the stock version of the plugin (line 10 of the @sample section). Your change accomplishes roughly the same thing as removing that multiplier, I'd think. Being that I wrote that around 15 years ago and haven't touched it since...it's hard to know what I was including that constant multiplier for, but I think that's more than likely the problem. Some of the math in there is condensed down to constants where possible to avoid using expensive functions like LOG() or EXP() if I didn't absolutely have to in the middle of a per-sample loop. A lot of those JS plugins were written as proof-of-concept of things I was working on...and JS is absolutely BRILLIANT for that. Also, like anyone, I learn over time and things I did then may not be the same things I would do now. You live, you learn. Really, REALLY odd that nobody's brought it up before now...or at least nobody brought it directly to MY attention where I could do something about it. I only found this video because someone else pointed it out to me. Always feel free to reach out to me if you have concerns about something I've written - if you don't have my contact information you can file a support ticket or fill out a contact form on the website and I'll be happy to provide it for you. Thank you for bringing it (indirectly) to my attention. :)

No problem for backward compatibility, as it turns out. The plugin has been updated, and the old settings are listed as "blown capacitor (ratio n) - deprecated" under the ratio dropdown. So the old settings remain, as well as the new ones.

This is a great argument for learning to code at least a little bit.

Et voila! From the 6.27 changelog, released a couple days ago. " JSFX: update 1175 compressor and various others to fix overcompression, add deprecated blown capacitor mode to preserve old behavior". There you have it. Gotta appreciate the interaction here. It's hard to know for sure, but my hunch is that this wouldn't have gotten changed were it not for this video. Good contribution! ;)

Very toasty indeed!

JSFX effects are mostly user contributed and were included into Reaper distribution many years ago. They are not only meant to be used but also serve as the basis for user hacking, which is what Dan demonstrates (I wish you underlined this point even more - JS are meant to be tweaked!). Even if some of them have some bugs (and all code has), it's hard for Reaper devs to fix them due to obligations to backward compatibility - some Project out there relies on them working in the same way they always did. I believe I was the one who mentioned JS in my comment under the previous video. I'm honoured. Thanks, Dan.

Funny! I've had a look at the code, and line 84 is: overdb = 2.08136898 * log(det/cthreshv) * log2db; No idea what that magic 2.0813... is for, but with what you're telling it sure looks very suspicious.

@DanWorrall

3 жыл бұрын

I have a sneaking suspicion, which I wasn't confident enough to mention in the video. However, 1176 compressors are feedback designs. In order to achieve a 2:1 ratio with a feedback topology you actually need a hard limiter transfer curve internally. Higher ratios, like 4:1 require ducking style transfer curves, just like the unmodified 1175. My guess is that this is actually running as a feed forward design, when that wasn't intended, and the transfer curves are designed for feedback operation. But I'm too lazy to try to untangle the code and see if I'm right.

@alexthi

@@DanWorrall That's an interesting suspicion. The code really looks like unfinished work to me: there is actually an RMS feature in it, which just lacks a slider on the UI. It takes very few modifications to turn this implementation into a feedback compressor (multiplying maxspl by grv, removing that 2.0813... and setting gr = -overdb*(cratio-1) without the division by cratio). It is a bit glitchy for very short attack times though (

After 15 years, I don't know what the 2.08... was for, either. :). But you're correct that that is where the problem is. The ratio calculation is correct. Increasing the denominator of the ratio calculation by 2.1 roughly compensates for overstated calculation of the amount over threshold.

@@DanWorrall 1175 is not a direct emulation of an 1176...rather just a compressor with similar VERY fast attack (and less so on release) times. That yields a surprising amount of the "flavor" of an 1176. Writing truly complex code in JS is difficult since all variables are essentially global whether you use functions/subroutines or not. @alexthi is correct about where the main problem you described with the ratio is actually located. I made a comment at the top of the page before I saw these comments. After 15 years it's all a blur anyway. :)

I suspect that if Dan is old enough, then he was that kid in 1980s BBC micro computer lessons at school who'd wait for the teacher to make a statement, then he'd chip in with, "well, actually..."

This was uploaded on March 23rd and reaper had a new update fixing this by March 29th. Clutch

What I get from seein this compressor work is that it actually is a Negative Ratio compressor, the most extreme way to compress. It works something like this: Let's say you have the threshold at -12 and the signal is peaking at -6. If you set a 2:1 ration the compressor would reduce 3 dB in theory. With a ratio of -2:1 (notice the minus which indicates it's negative), the compressor will reduce 2x times what goes over the threshold, which would be 12 dB. If the ratio was -3:1, the the compressor would reduce 18 dB. And so on.

National Treasure!

Pam pam pam-pam-pam. Oh look, i want more of that song ...

"however, I know for a fact that I've never used the 1175 in anything that matters". I don't think I've ever heard any expert destruction of other experts' tools in my life. Absolutely savage.

Dan: Releases another epic video. Thousands of people: can't wait to copy the code.

not surprised at all

Dammit honestly if in the next video this guy whips out a bunch of resistors and capacitors and builds an EQ on the spot I'd be like "sure, I was expecting that actually"

That last part of this video where you hum out the melody you hear in the drums and then add a strings version of that melody over the rhythm is mind-bogglingly helpful. Thank you.

The plus side for me is I'd completely forgotten about this compressor!

Quite epic

The reason why plugin developers don't put the all buttons in mode near the attack and release settings, is because people are used to the all buttons in mode as an all buttons in mode. Most of us don't even know what it does precisely, we just know when to use it, and that it sounds good.

To everyone who wants to do the same edit to the Macfizz GUI modded version of the Stillwell 1175, It is line 63 in the dkaps.jsfx-inc file that needs to be changed from "/this.cratio;" to "/(this.cratio*2.1);"
