[QUOTE="hwahrmann, post: 96232, member: 10391"] I've just committed some code, which allows you using DSP (Digital Signal Processing) effects, while playing music through the BASS engine. BASS allows 3 types of effects: [LIST] [*]BASS Internal effects Here we have: [LIST] [*]Gain: Amplifies the channel signal by a given factor. [*]Dynamic Amplification: Applies dynamic Amplification with the selected Preset. [*]Compressor: Compressors are commonly used to control the level, by making loud passages quieter, and quiet passages louder. [/LIST] [*]VST Plugins You may use any VST compatible plugin. VST Plugins are available for example in products from [URL="http://www.steinberg.net"]Steinberg[/URL] [*]WinAmp DSP Plugins WinAmp DSP Plugins may used as well, as long as they don't modify the sample. [B]Note:[/B]I had to disable the WinAmp Plugin support for the time being, as it kept MediaPortal crashing. I'm in touch with the BASS people and will enable support when the problem is solved. [/LIST] [B]How to enable DSP processing[/B] In MediaPortal Configuration -> Music -> Music DSP You MUST use the BASS audio engine as a player to use the DSP processing. You may run any combination of Plugins and mix BASS internals, VST and Winamp. For you to be able to control how your changes will sound, you can select a muic file and start playing it. While playing you may change the parameters and notice the affect of your change. For VST plugins and Winamp plugins, you may double click on a plugin in the right-hand side of selected plugins and the plugins own editor opens in a separate window, allowing you to change the parms. When you start playing a file inside MediaPortal, all the selected DSP effects will be applied. This is just the first release.
