Official effect
Attack-swelling envelope shaper that fades the front edge in by opening according to a very slow envelope follower.
This patch multiplies the input by a slow low-passed absolute-value envelope scaled by `squeeze`, then clamps that control so the attack ramps in instead of appearing immediately. After that it only applies a high shelf, and the shared `contour` control is currently declared but unused in the code.
Static peaks come from the compiled FAUST preview render. The live scope is drawn from the browser playback output in real time.
How It Works
This patch multiplies the input by a slow low-passed absolute-value envelope scaled by `squeeze`, then clamps that control so the attack ramps in instead of appearing immediately. After that it only applies a high shelf, and the shared `contour` control is currently declared but unused in the code.
Signal Path
Preview source: An internally generated picked-string phrase is widened to stereo with a 19-sample right-channel delay and slight left/right shelf-EQ offsets before it hits the dynamics or EQ core.
An internally generated picked-string phrase is widened to stereo with a 19-sample right-channel delay and slight left/right shelf-EQ offsets before it hits the dynamics or EQ core.
Slow-envelope swell stage followed by simple high-shelf tone shaping.
The static waveform and the live player both reflect this compiled signal chain.
These are the currently active controls detected in the FAUST source for this effect.
The generated description is tied to the active helper blocks and routing found in the current DSP.
Controls
Blends the untouched stereo preview source with the processed path after the core effect.
Lower settings keep more dry attack and natural dynamics; higher settings push the processed behavior forward.
Applies final post-effect level trim after DC blocking and before the output limiter.
Matches loudness without changing the actual dynamic or EQ structure.
Raises the multiplier applied to the very slow envelope follower that opens the swell stage.
Changes how quickly and how fully the attack blooms in.
Adjusts the post-swell high shelf.
Keeps the swelled sound darker or lets more brightness through.
Declared in the shared control set but unused in the current preview code.
Changing it currently has no effect on the sound.
Analysis
Current implementation is distinct from the compressor and gate groups, but the shared contour control is inactive.
No current warnings are attached to this effect.
