Hi all,

I am fairly new to Pd and am currently working on creating a 'frozen' reverb patch.
I'm familiar with freeverb~'s freeze feature, but I am keen to implement it myself into this patch that user 'katjav' posted a while ago here. The patch is an attempted port of freeverb~ into vanilla pd objects.

Miller Puckette describes how infinite reverberation can be achieved, by setting the feedback gain to 1 (100%), while momentarily opening the input (only for a small period of time).

If anyone could help me understand where the best place to alter the feedback gain in the above patch I would be forever grateful.

Will post results here if I manage to achieve this on my own

mission accomplished, still has my receives and throws, so you will need to change them into inlets/outlets/whatever

reverb_v2.pd

EDIT: just realised that this is a version where i have totally unnecessary scaling in 'pd room', a 0.99 message is sent to the free verb inlet, when in actual fact it can be 1. Provided that the [+~ 0.7] is removed, which also mean the [del 500] can probably be reduced to a lower value. here: reverb_v2.pd

Thanks for this patch! Will give it a try shortly.

Hi @mryevrah, I hope you won't mind but I had a look on your frozen reverb patch and I have made some modifications for myself. I added the option of not only freezing a sound and substituting the previous one, but also of adding another frozen sound (creating a cluster). I also modified a bit the reverberation algorithm, and now the room size is a signal. This allows a much smoother ramping of the room size (there were some strange noises before when clearing).

Here is the result: frozenReverb~.zip. Let me know what you think.

Take care,
Gilberto

And here is an even better version, less inlets to mess with. Now it also takes messages such as [freeze(, [add( and [clear(, and the latter can have an argument for the fading time, such as [clear 300(.

EDIT: I created a version with and another without GUI, and added some more options to control the object via messages.
