consider exposing `median` filter length `\pitch` synth params via Lua/OSC #1769

Closed pq closed 8 months ago

pq commented 8 months ago

following up from the conversation about jitter in the tuner app (https://llllllll.co/t/tuner/21088/14), as @catfact notes

[it] Might not be the worst thing to expose these system synth parameters through Lua /OSC.

median for sure but maybe downsampling too?

catfact commented 8 months ago

Maybe just a generic OSC method for each "system synth" (including pitch and amp follower, maybe that's it?), taking a synth control name and a value

Wouldn't really need Lua FFI

catfact commented 8 months ago

... One thing to consider is when/if to reset these to default values (should they be blind to parameters? Etc), as these synths outlive the script

tehn commented 8 months ago

the question of default values will follow the same logic as the reverb and compressor, right?

which raises the issue of perhaps this current logic should be evaluated (since we now have more system preference options than before).

update: as much as i love the idea of exposing these params, i did some testing this afternoon and have to say i didn't see a noticeable improvement when i bumped the median and dropped downsampling. (obviously, this is just anecdotal and deserves a bit more exploration but i'm not as sold on the idea as i was when i proposed it.)
