Drive Delay

Well this is my very first device. It's a simple delay with drive and resonance, these are inside the feedback loop so be careful with them. This is a mono effect, a stereo version will or should be following. Let me know if there are any problems.
By the way, SDK can hurt your brain muscle and is highly addictive, be aware!!

nice start! Jah.

Now you have to dig in deeper and get used with all atoms and modules....
and through the time, the workflow in sdk will get easier for you, as you get used to the stuff the more you play around...

Its a big construction kit. Very powerful.

if you don`t want to blow the delay feedback with the distortion, you have to rework the volume.

f.e if your feedback is set to 60% meaning 60% volume amount is feedback and you add distortion 200%, you have a absolute feedback of 120% and it will blow up because its over 100%.
To fix this you should integrate a volume control, when clip is boostig 200% there should be a volume attenuator behind to gain down to 50%, so you stay constant in volume processing.
So the volume will stay constant in the feedback path but the clip effect will get stronger....

I stand the point that a device should sound good, at least averange in all configurations, else you have to limit its rangings....

thanks, I need to read the scope paradigm chapter to help me understand a little more I think, although I've heard it's not that good either.
I thought of adding something to make the volume automatically compensate, but I really had no idea of how to do it, maybe you could give me some idea, I'd like to do it. Maybe pm me if you could
