I saw the Kinotone Ribbons was back on sale and tried to cure my GAS by finally soldering together my Hothouse and getting started with Daisy. What a fun platform! I put together a pseudo-tape-sim pedal with the help of Claude and am really happy with what came out.
The idea was to try to have a TASCAM 424-esque drive into tape saturation with controllable wow/flutter, tape hiss, and an end of chain compressor / gain compensation.
knob 1: drive
knob 2: low end tape saturation
knob 3: wow/flutter amount
knob 4: hiss/dropout level
knob 5: tone adjustment
knob 6: global trim
switch 1: tape age (degradation multiplier)
switch 2: tape speed (HF rolloff, headroom and saturation)
switch 3: shitty-walkman-esque automatic gain compensation
FS1: bypass
FS2: nothing yet
My first Seed project, and I’m really excited to keep working on it!
I am new to Daisy projects (and using git to download and build open source projects, in general) and was excited to this project as its the type of thing I was looking for with the Hothouse project.
With that said, I am learning that there is not always 1 way to get the code to build and write to the Daisy Seed module.
I am having trouble getting this project to build…is there by chance anything a beginner may not realize to get Tapescam working?
Should the end result be a .bin file get generated in the build folder to then use the Daisy Programmer to flash the Daisy Seed?
Oops, i reused this DSP in my app (TAPESCAM – Lo-Fi Drive and Tape Simulation) and must have made an adjustment that broke it. I’ve reverted the repo to the october state and moved my shared dsp work to another branch. You should be able to revert to the october state from when i posted and build; i’ll need to fix up the repo when I get a chance!
@Charles Thanks for the response. Would you be able to explain a bit more what I need to do to download the repo in the Oct working state?
From Terminal, I have been getting the files using “Git clone https://github.com/charlesvestal/CVCHothouse.git” … so if starting form scratch, I need to do that and then “git checkout “? If so, which one?
And thanks for sharing the plugin project. Purchased and downloaded… yes, this is exactly what I was looking for in pedal form so excited to get this working.
