| LUFS DESCRIPTION: this plugin is meant to be put in the Master of the Mixer. It measures the perceived Loudness of the signals. The opcodes performs an analysis of input audio according to ITU-R BS.1770-4 recommendation. The outputs are Momentary, Integrated and Short-Term loudnesses. CONTROLLERS: see the help balloon when hovering over the controllers in the instrument. Help can be turned off by pressing the 'I' button next to the play bar. --- version 1.0, January 2022 - Initial release | Other | @menno0 | Effect | Feb 9, 2022 | .beffect |
| MASTERguard DESCRIPTION: The MASTEReffect is meant to be put on the Master output of the mixer. It keeps an eye on volume, removes DC and lowpasses the mix in order to prevent aliasing. It is a safeguard. Of course, they can all be switched on and off, but i keep them all on as long as i am in the composition fase; once the final mix is done, i check if there is any DC or too high frequencies or too loud volume. --- version 1.0, December 2020 - Initial release | Other | @menno0 | Effect | Dec 7, 2020 | .beffect |
| Waveguides DESCRIPTION: 2 instances of the wguide2 opcode is implemented in parallel. It provides the incoming signal with 'air' or 'breathe'. stereo in, stereo out. CONTROLLERS: ON/OFF - bypass fequency 1/2 - the frequency (i.e. the inverse of delay time) filter 1/2 - the filter cutoff frequency in Hz feedb - the feedback factor mix - mix direct signal with effect --- version 1.11, May 2020 - added comments on controllers version 1.1, April 2020 - coding improved, now stereo version 1.0, July 2019 - initial version by Menno Knevel | Other | @menno0 | Effect | May 17, 2020 | .beffect |
| Body Type M DESCRIPTION: sound is going through 5 spring-mass systems (mode opcode) and is 'reverberating' on the frequency you set.

| CrossX DESCRIPTION: CrossX is a somewhat strange Blue effect, as all Blue effects have 2 signal inputs and 2 signal outputs. CrossX does have this of course, but if you want to divide an incoming signal into 3 frequencybands, one should have 2 inputs and 6 outputs (= 2 x 3). This is not how the Blue mixer is set up. A workaround is to divide the incoming signal into 3 Subchannels, each with its own CrossX effect. One Subchannel for the Lowpass, one for the Mid, one for the Highpass. Disadvantage is that when you want to change the frequencybands of one of the Crossx effects, you should copy this behaviour so all they all match... The CrossX divides the signal in 3 band spectra: low, mid, high. In the pre-fade of a Blue mixer strip, add 3 sends to 3 different Subchannels. In each Subchannel, put the CrossX and set the checkbox to active for the LOWpass, BANDpass and HIGHpass. The Y axis represnts the amplitude of each band, and the X axis of the 2 windows LOW and HIGH determine the LOWpass frequency cutoff and HIGHpass frequency cutoff. On each of the Subchannel (= spectrumband) it is now possible to add effects or adjust the volume. You can mix the 3 outputs of the Subchannels and its effects together again , for example in a 4th Subchannel, to create different sound textures from one sound source. CONTROLLERS: ON/OFF - bypass LOW/HIGH/BANDpass - frequency band of filter(s) filterdepth - set steep slope of filter(s) XY controllers - set frequency and gain --- version 1.21, May 2020 - added comments on controllers version 1.2, 2019 - XY controller improvements version 1.1, februari 2018 - added filter depth - used modified buttpass UDO from Victor Lazarinni version 1.0 , January 2018 - initial version by Menno Knevel - 3 band spectrum divider - checkbox on/off | Other | @menno0 | Effect | May 17, 2020 | .beffect |
| ladspa divider a wrapper of ladspa plugin called Audio Divider, created by Steve Harris. Copyright: The GNU General Public Licence. The dssi opcodes are wrapping the ladspa plugin so it can be used as an effect for Blue. The PATH for the ladspa plugins on my Linux systemm is /usr/lib/ladspa. Be sure to set the right PATH if you run OSX or Windows. DESCRIPTION: Reduces the period of the signal by the factor given, and makes it a square wave in the process. Has some amplitude tracking capability, but not really useful on complex signals. CONTROLLERS: ON/OFF - bypass File Selector - set path for divider_1186.so Denominator - The factor the incoming frequency will be divided by Mix - mix direct signal with effect Frequency - low pass filter --- version 1.01 - added comments on controllers version 1.0, June 2019 - new GUI and small code adaptations by Menno Knevel - added mixer wet/dry and frequency lowpass filter | Other | @menno0 | Effect | May 17, 2020 | .beffect |
