Hi Mark,
Hope you're doing well.
The item that prompted my posting was one in which the performance of DX/VST
plugins under Windows was compared unfavorably with JAMin under Linux. I
didn't get the impression that the poster was discussing mastering tools,
but I suppose that's possible.
Some users who may look at JAMin and think it's supposed to be a plugin
rather than appreciate that it was specifically designed for something
else, despite the fact that it's displaying a representation of a
real-time 1024-point FFT, or so it would seem.
----------------------
Designing a mastering tool as a plugin may have a slight advantage for
ease-of-use, but it seems to me a relatively larger disadvantage in
that the interface would have to follow plugin restrictions, which
may be rather limiting. I like the JAMin developers' design here.
Philicordia mentioned using JAMin on submixes. I think that's great; but
I'm sure he knows exactly what the tool actually is. I also appreciate his
mentioning that because that's often where I have problems. That 3-D reverb
stuff I'm working on acts almost like an expander on certain material. Under
certain conditions, it also acts as a low-pass filter.
Best regards,
Dave.
