Calf Studio Gear: New Theme „Calf Flat Default“
Donnerstag, den 2. November 2017
For those of you hating skeuomorphism to the core: here’s your choice for using Calf Studio Gear without the sting in your eyes – the new theme „Calf Flat Default“ based on the color scheme of the current Calf Default theme. Only non-flat elements are the LEDs cause it would mean a major rewrite of the code. So I just removed the glassy effect and left the underlying gradient in place.

Calf Studio Gear: New Plugin Multi Spread
Samstag, den 23. Januar 2016
More stereo tools ftw! This one spreads your mono signal into stereo without any additional delay line – just by distributing the frequency spectrum equally between left and right. Choose the amount of filters per band and the direction of the distribution.
Calf Studio Gear: New Mastering Tool – Multiband Enhancer!
Mittwoch, den 9. Dezember 2015
A new mastering device available in the Calf suite! The Multiband Enhancer spreads or reduces the stereo image and is able to add some harmonics – on four separate bands individually! For example: reduce the stereo base of your bass band to get more punch and spread it on the highest band for more air and stereo image. Monitor what you’re doing with the tiny goniometers in every band. Add some harmonics in the mid bands to raise the presence of your signal without changing the loudness – Multiband Enhancer really enhances your mix.

Calf Studio Gear: All Plug-Ins With Level Meters, Bypass and Gains
Freitag, den 6. November 2015
Tonight I implemented level meters, bypass and gain knobs to all plug-ins which were missing these widgets. Non-signal-processing plug-ins like Reverb or Multichorus got an On/Off switch instead of a bypass toggle. This way a comparison between dry and wet is much easier and meaningful. Bypass copies the input directly to the output while switching off e.g. a flanger just removes the effect signal from the output, dry signal keeps its level.
Additionally some of the plug-ins UIs were overhauled, basically they got more compact.
Calf Studio Gear: Plug-In Controllers In Calfjackhost
Donnerstag, den 5. November 2015
A feature request which appeared quite often was at least a bypass button for all plugins in calfjackhost. Lately the main work for adding a much broader spectrum of plug-ins controls was done. It still hides in a branch called „rackwidgets“ but is fully funcitonal now. Only one problem left: The knobs don’t update their counterparts atm. As soon as this gets sorted out we’ll merge the stuff into the master.
Oh and we got scales for the meters in calfjackhost now, too!
