Neural Record

[tramp]

Neural Record is a VST3/LV2 plug to make the process of cloning
external soft/hardware a bit more comfortable.

Neural Record is build using the DISTRHO Plugin Framework
DPF

It features a round trip measurement routine.
This allows to load the plug, connect the output to the system output,
loop over external gear (soft or hardware) and back to the Profiler input.

Simply press "Capture" to play the "input.wav" file to the output and
record the returning input
delayed by the measured round trip latency. The peek meter will show you
if your signal is in the expected range.

The round-trip latency will be measured on each "Capture" start.

Resulting recorded "target.wav" file will be perfectly in sync with the
used "input.wav" file.
Currently, both files would be saved under "$(HOME)/profiles/".
The "target.wav" file will be overwritten on each Capture run, so there
will be always only one target file.
You need to save it from that directory in order to use it with the
AIDA-X or NAM trainer.

The "input.wav" file comes as resource with the plug (hence the big size
of the binary packages) and get copied over to that folder, when no
input.wav file was found there.
This allows advanced users to use their own input.wav file by simply
replace the one in that folder.

The target.wav file get checked during record and run to a normalization
function when needed.
(Only when the max peek in target is above the max peek in input).

The record will be saved in the PCM24 wav format (same as the input.wav
file).

The UI provide a progress bar, a peek meter, and well the profile button.

As requested by the AIDA-X and the NAM trainer, only 48kHz been
supported to run this plug.

(You'll get a warning otherwise)

Damn Brummer, you are awesome! Definitely giving It a try. Thanks as always for your great work!

Yep I'm gonna try this if it is what I think it is..
Can I capture a Windows vst amp that's running under wine? I love the Audio Assault Bassgrinder free vst which runs under wine but when I use it, I get my tone quickly the commit the track as we all know that all it takes is a wine update and we all can be screwed.

So I'd like to make NAM style captures of different setting of the plugin. Can this app do that?

Edit:
Ok maybe I'm not following the instructions correctly. I Qjackctl, I've connected Neural Record (as if it's sending the signal) to the vst. I then return the signal after passing through the vst back to the Neural Record.

If that is correct, I'm getting an error.

This is slightly off topic, but I thought Audio Assault plugins generally have linux versions. Looking at their website, https://audioassault.mx, I don't see anything called bassgrinder, however.

It's a free plugin that they don't make anymore. This was before they started to support our platform.
I was just looking at a guitar channel on YouTube and the guitarist was talking about laying down the bass guitar parts for his upcoming album and he said he thought that was the best sounding amp sim for bass guitar.
Hey then shared the link in the video description.

At first you must run the LV2 or the vst3 version, because only those comes with the needed input file. It would be enough to just load them one time into a host. That will copy over the input file to the needed path. After that the stand alone will work as well.

However, a new version is out now, v0.1.6 which implemented more informative error messages. Checkout the new version and run one of the plugin formats before try the stand-alone.
Other than that, you've done it correct, that is the way it is supposed to work.

Thanks buddy, will try that.
