Comb Filter Effect

Another handy snippet of code pulled from the SC-Users list once again. Credit for this goes to Kernal, kernel@audiospillage.com.
The gui should be mostly self explanatory I think, but if you want to use this with other inputs besides the test sound you'll need to set the input bus and send your sound through that.


// parrallel comb filters implemented as effect return

// send the synth defs(
(
SynthDef("ImpulseTest", {|bus = 3|

Out.ar(bus, [Impulse.ar(SinOsc.kr(0.23).range(0.5,23), 0.5)]);

}).send(s);
);

(
SynthDef("CombUnit",{| d1 = 0.001, d2 = 0.001, d3 = 0.001, d4 = 0.001, d5 = 0.001,
t1 = 1, t2 = 1, t3 = 1, t4 = 1, t5 = 1,
f1 = 20000, f2 = 20000, f3 = 20000, f4 = 20000, f5 = 20000,
vol = 1, inBus = 3, outBus = 0|

var in, out, c1, c2, c3, c4, c5;

in = In.ar(inBus, 1);

c1 = LPF.ar(CombC.ar(in, 1, d1, t1), f1);
c2 = LPF.ar(CombC.ar(in, 1, d2, t2), f2);
c3 = LPF.ar(CombC.ar(in, 1, d3, t3), f3);
c4 = LPF.ar(CombC.ar(in, 1, d4, t4), f4);
c5 = LPF.ar(CombC.ar(in, 1, d5, t5), f5);

out = (c1 + c2 + c3 + c4 + c5) * 0.2;

Out.ar([outBus, outBus + 1], out * vol);

}).send(s);
);
)
