VitaliumVerb

A Rust port of the reverb module from the Vital/Vitalium synthesizer, allowing it to be used as an effect plugin. There are also a few minor improvements and optimizations added: * A stereo width parameter applied to the wet signal * Tweaked parameter curves that focus better on the sweet spots * Runtime-evaluated constants like filter coefficients, gain amplitudes, chorus phase increments, and allpass matrices are only recalculated when their respective parameters have changed (the original recalculated these every process cycle).

Made using the awesome NIH-plug plugin development framework.

Download

You can download pre-built binaries for Linux, Windows, and MacOS from the Releases tab.

Installation instructions are included in the zip files.

Building from source

After installing Rust and the nightly toolchain (rustup toolchain install nightly), you can compile VitaliumVerb as follows:

cargo +nightly xtask bundle vitalium_verb --release

Then copy /target/bundled/VitaliumVerb.clap and/or /target/bundled/VitaliumVerb.vst3 to the corresponding plugin directories for your OS.

On macOS you may need to disable Gatekeeper as Apple has recently made it more difficult to run unsigned code on macOS.
