Ballast changelog

0.1.0

  • Introduce Ballast, a switch-up leveller: every part of a bassline gets one gain that brings it to the Target loudness. No compression inside a part.
  • Parts start at note starts (detected from the audio, or from MIDI) or on the host's beat grid, from 1 bar to 1/16.
  • Loudness is K-weighted (ITU-R BS.1770) over each part's first 100 ms, in 10 ms blocks with a relative gate, and each part is weighted from rest.
  • The gain glides over 5 ms and is in place on the part's first sample.
  • Learn takes the next part's loudness as the target. Amount, Range, Measure from (leave the sub out of the measurement), Gate, Output, Bypass.
  • Editor: the last 32 parts, their loudness in and out, the target, and the spread of the last 16 parts.
  • About 172 ms of latency: the tracker's lookahead, the window and the glide.
