gordverb

Simple free open-source reverb. Meant to be used to swap out early/late reflection algorithms and compare them in performance and sound quality.

Params:

• Wet/Dry
• Reverb amount
• Enable early reflections
• Enable late reflections

Code is structured in such a way that early and late reflections algorithms can be swapped out easily at compile time.

It's named after my dog, Gordon, like most things that I don't want to actually spend time naming. :) Naming is hard!

How to Clone

The submodules included in the repo are needed to build.

To clone with repo along with its submodules using SSH:

git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:jcampbellcodes/gordverb.git

How to build

We use CMake as the build system for this project. In order to configure and build to a directory called build (which will be ignored by git), do this:

cd /to/gordverb/root
cmake -B build
cmake --build build

To generate an IDE project, for example Xcode, do this:

cd /to/gordverb/root
cmake -B build -G Xcode

and open the IDE project from the build directory at the root of the repo.

Tests

There is a Catch2 unit test suite under the tests subdir. These can be run with CTest.

Dependencies

• clang-format
  • used for formatting source code. see .clang-format file in repo.
• git-lfs
  • git lfs is needed to pull down large IR content without bloating the repo
• catch2
  • used for unit tests
• daisysp
  • used for additional FX algos
• juce
  • used for plugin wrapping and gui

TODO:

• Add more IRs
• Add more controls
• Add custom GUI
• Support MISO
• Add new reverb type (support larger sample rates)
