Sorry guys for misunderstanding arose. I just see here is mostly creative part of audio society spends a time. So far, audiobus was simplest way to bring features i had in development long time. Many more aware of that work, what it supposed to do, auditioned it on other platforms, constantly asked me port these to iOS thingy. So, i am assure you, it is finest tools of it's class. And they are definitely not from mixing tool chain. Tuned right, they able to significantly lower distortions on the given piece of hardware, say iPhone amplifier — EarPods. Default settings measured to produce perfect, distortion less binaural effect on iPhone — EarPods. If you turn crossfeed off it simply lowers active distortions of that chain. The both, things are fatigue less and pleasant on end listening process just by they naturally constructive action. As a pair of good cans or so...
I'm working on oversampled processing and presets.
I thank you all for you understanding and support.
CYa, copah
Ah! So Airbender DSL is similar (in purpose, at least) to the CanOpener app - but with Audiobus (?) I look forward to the planned enhancements.
Airbender DSL seems to have disappeared from the AppStore!
Try Airbender DSP (not DSL). And remember it's an iPhone app, so won't show up if you only search under iPad apps.
@ChrisG: Sorry for the typos earlier. It wasn't that though. It was the iPhone vs. iPad issue. I was concerned that the app wasn't showing in my AppStore purchases list. The latest incarnation of the AppStore is confusing
Thanks for the pointer.
@copah If at all possible could you please make this a universal app? Had the same problem that @Washboy had in regards to using it on my ipad mini the audiobus panel is slightly in the way, and there seems to be no way to bring it back. Also is it your suggestions to leave the default settings alone, and is there any chance you could perhaps add some presets in the next update? Thanks!
I think he said he was working on presets for the next update
OK I think I can shed some light on this. I just bought the app and have used it to fix a recording I made. Here is the original description of the one module:
"Crossfeed Fertilizer — is a stereo soundfield binaurual renderer based on my work named “Study of extent and application appropriateness of Special Relativity model to propagation of naturally emitted longitudinal wave within gaseous media to gain precise description of double slit source diffraction field character dependance against evaluated relativistic specials”.
From my work with this, here is what I think is going on: this re-computes a stereo image based on binaural reproduction. It uses some kind of computation based on special relativity. Perhaps trying to deduce the geometry of the recording space and transforming it into a binaural manifold. This is done by using data from the relativistic analysis of sound waves binaurally.
Or, in short: it changes the sound stage of your recording by re-producing it using binaural playback which gives a more realistic sound stage when using headphones and a somewhat more lively sound stage on stereo speakers.
I used it to take this live recording I made in a church which so much phase distortion it sounded like ghosts all over the sound stage. this happens when there is a very complex dynamic response of a room that creates all kinds of complex phase distortions that create a random sound stage. no focus. Airbender DSP basically re-computed the sound stage into a more controlled realistic spacial recording.
"Stereo base" changes the 3D texture of the sound. the only way I can explain it is as if the sound was like a fabric. this controls the kind of fabric: its weaves, courseness, etc in the context of sound. its a texture. also widens the stereo image as well.
"Stereo distance" expands or collapses the stereo width. this causes all kinds of reflections that can cause complex high end "diffraction".
Its a very interesting tool.
"Rapidity Maintainer — designed to compensate transducer specific mass excess, thus freeing the system from native reactive behaviour producing massive amount of non-linear distortions. In a first place, it's a speaker's moving subsystem, which is usually sum of diaphragm and a voice coil masses. Tip: Consider speakers with heads attributed by equalised specific mass a significant advantage over a rival."
The sonic effect of this, to my ears, is a kind of complex dynamic compression more in the high end. It also has a textural effect to the sound.
I find I just move the controls until I a get a pleasing sound. I think what makes or breaks a mastering producer is the ability to create a mix that people will generally like. its totally subjective. you are just trying to extract the most out the music without making it sound like its been processed.
After reading through this thread I must admit to being amused, intrigued but mostly non-the-wiser. I think the cryptic descriptions are the result of Google translations from the Cyrillic (maybe). Well, as it's virtually free, It's got to be worth a try.
It is certainly subtle and appears to be some sort of compression and stereo widening tool. I'm at work and only have earbuds with me, so I will see what is going on with cans and speakers a little later on.
Still can't really define what it does, but I do think that is soooooo subtle that it's pretty pointless. To my ears the effects are most noticeable on vocals but not in any real useful way.
I took the plunge too and ran a wav from AudioShare through AirBender DSP and recorded the result in AudioShare and normalized the result. Here are two snap shots of the resulting waveforms at various settings. The first image has the filtered wave overlayed with the original and the second image shows the waves and the settings by themselves.
See, my experience with it is different. First I'll talk about that and then talk more about what I think its doing...
I dont find the effect subtle. It has a pretty dramatic effect on life recorded music. I just got it and it was instrumental in making a live recording I am working on sound good. The change is dramatic. I don't have much experience with it with non-live recordings or fully mastered final recording. I don't think its really useful for electronic music but I have yet to work on some through it.
I think Airbender changes the spacial nature of the recording. Based on the description it talks about relativity and essentially quantum mechanics. it also talks about transmission through a gaseous medium. so this seems to imply that it uses physics to model an acoustic space.
However, knowing a bit about theoretical physics, I don't think it could do this in real time. Perhaps there are some pre-computed transforms that are used. Or, perhaps its snake oil and its just applying some comb filter and simple stereo imaging processing.
Regardless, it was useful for this live recording. The orginal, after some fairly typical mastering processing, still had a lot of issues in terms of sound stage. i figured I'd like have to live with it like that. but I tried Airbender and was pleasantly surprised at the results. it took all the confusion out of the sound stage (cheap mics, very resonant complex space, loud folk rock music). the band was placed in the centre, realisticsally, sourrounded by a natural ambiance.
Cheers @plexus, maybe I will give it another go then with different scenarios.
Yes try more acoustic music and music with specific instruments positioned in the sound stage. could be a live recording, perhaps orchestral music, folk perhaps jazz. i dont think this is a tool for electronic music. regardless of whats going on under the hood, it definitely can clean-up/simplify a soundstage. worked my for my live recording and i wouldnt have been able to get the result using another tool. when i have a comparison to post I will.
