I’m happy to announce the next device in Calf Studio Gear: (kind of a) bitcrusher named Crusher. It is able to reduce the resolution of the signal bitwise like every bitcrusher does. Additionally one can reduce the resolution seamless. It can handle asymetric resolution changes by adding/removing a DC offset to the signal which chruches signals of one halv-wave different from the other one, resulting in more distorted chrushing sounds. The real innovation is a logarithmic reduction which means that signals of lower values are reduced with a finer grain while signals at high levels are reduced more gruffly. This technique produces lo-fi sounds more pleasant to the ear even at lower resolutions without distorting the signal to an incomprehensible level.
Another thing I implemented lately is a new GtkWidget for tapping beats per minute which is exclusively used in Vintage Delay by now.

Thank you very much!! You're doing an essential job for the development of open source software! The following points aren't meant as dogmas but as a clue, decide for yourself what you think could be useful in troubleshooting.
- Please...
- ...state name and version of your operating system / desktop environment
- ...state the version of the program you're using
- ...be detailed in what is happening and what you expected to happen
- ...try to provide some deeper information (like xplanetFX logs or the output of the program when started in a terminal window)
- ...speak to me as a human being, don't think I'm a bot.
Herzlichen Dank!! Fehlerberichte sind essentiell für die Entwicklung von Open-Source-Software! Die folgenden Punkte sind keine Dogmen, sondern sollen eher Anhaltspunkte darstellen; entscheide selbst, ob sie für die Fehlersuche hilfreich sein könnten.
- Bitte...
- ...nenne den Namen und die Version Deines Betriebssystems / Deiner Desktopumgebung
- ...nenne die Version des von Dir benutzten Programms
- ...beschreibe möglichst genau, was passiert und was Du erwartest, was passieren sollte
- ...stelle möglichst tiefergehende Informationen zur Verfügung (xplanetFX Logs oder die Ausgabe des Programms im Terminalfenster)
- ...sprich mit mir, wie mit einem Menschen, ich bin kein Automat.
