Hey nippybaynes, welcome to SM!

What exactly are you trying to do?

nippybaynes404 ·

just get rid of clicks and pops mainly. I use fruityloops and a vst called sytrus. I dont know if you have used it but it has a de-click option on it. I am trying to get something along them lines. Mabey it just does something to the attack time, not too sure.

It most likely alters the envelopes (and other modulations) in Sytrus. It's quite easy to get rid of clicks _inside_ a synthesizer, but once they're already there, it's really hard to make a decent plugin that can get rid of them. There's really no simple way for detecting what is clicks and what is sounds that is supposed to be there.

For instance you could never make an effect that does something to Sytrus' attack times.

For the clicks at the end of a note, I put an ADSR at the end of the module chain with ADS=1, & very very short Release... about where I don't hear any more pops.

Pops in the beginning of a note are from short attacks coupled with an envelope not starting at 0. Often down-saws/ramps are like this; they start at 1, & work their way down to -1.

A "smoother" will help rake in the pops inbetween, but risks making the audio quieter and less dynamic.

Does that help out nippybaynes?

You're welcome 🙂 I asked myself the same question only about 4 months ago... You might want to note that sometimes clicks are cool, esp at the start of organ type sounds, or distorted gutairs.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
