hi all,

ROry's page is unavailable from my site :(maybe my page will be available from his?). Anyway, since I have done basic testing, I thought I would put my comb stuff, and also rand~ (useful in chorusing, and for other purposes too) at suita.chopin.edu.pl/~czaja/miXed/externs/cyclone.html

The advantages over patching the filters with vd~ are: delay time can be less than a blocksize; msp compatibility; slightly faster processing.

The two main disadvantages are: ``cheezy linear interpolation'' (these words are from cycling's help patch) instead of 4-point interpolation used in vd~; using externs instead of builtins.

The filters were coded from scratch, while rand~' is just a compilation of Miller's phasor~ and noise~ code. I have not usedLFO_noise~' from iemlib, for the same reason I have not used comb~ from pd-lib: it cannot be modulated.

Speaking of iemlib: there is also speedlim' in it, which works exactly like the one in max. Thus, withmatch' being part of pd-lib, two of Olaf's maxlib classes had been already available. I think this is yet another proof there is a need to somehow revive pd-lib project.

For my part, collecting and testing max/msp compatibility stuff is certainly on a todo list. But only in the long run -- now I would rather spend my spare time on the all too long delayed release of the vexing library.
