[OPEN SOURCE] ScorchCrafter C120 Amp Head Plug-in

[forart.eu]

Recently released as open source (GPL), here's the most promising amp sim project on the scene:

The SC C120 is a complete guitar amp head emulator in a VST/AU plug-in, using 64-bit internal distortion. After being in development for a over a year, it is now GPL-ed open source starting with version 3.0. For Win32, and soon Mac and Linux.



Feature highlights:

• 64-bit internal processing multi-stage distortion
• Two input EQ filters
• Two stages of output EQ tone stack
• High-gain and grundge/semi-clean channels
• Should work on older machines as well, advanced CPU instructions not required (SSE, SSE2, etc.)
• Independent oversampling controls for both online and offline audio processing
• Oversampling up to 16x internally, also with "mute" and "bypass" settings
• Should run in most 32-bit DAW hosts as well (support for v2.4 VSTs required)
• GPL license only applies to plug-in itself - any audio created is 100% YOURS
• Runs at sample rates from 44,100 Hz (minimum) up to 768,000 Hz (max can be changed with recompile of source code)
• Used to be (but is no longer) a closed-source freeware experiment for a long time, now open source starting with version 3.x

Hoping that more and more freeware ampsim devs will decide to switch to open source, wanna invite everyone to download/test/feedback and contribute (in any way) to the project. Thanks in advice !
