T3K plugin pitch shifter plugin

Hello,

I’ve been on a long search for a pitch shifting algorithm that doesn’t muddy up my tone, and I’ve came across the pitch shifting from the TONE3000 plugin and I’m absolutely blown away!

The code is open source, on their GitHub, and it’s ridiculously optimized, barely eating any CPU, because it’s no doing FFT or granular synthesis, it’s just a fancier delay (in a matter of speaking)

I myself ordered the Dwarf because I wanted to make an LV2 plugin containing that code (did so already!) to use the Dwarf as a dedicated pitch shifter, but I wanted to ask if someone with actual knowledge could do a better work and have a proper implementation done?

So far I’ve managed to run the code on a Bela Gem Stereo board, but I haven’t gotten my Dwarf yet to test out my vibe-coded LV2 wrapper

I’ll test out my implementation when I can, but if anyone wants to give it a proper try please do let me know, I do vehemently believe that this is THE BEST pitch shifter for guitars that has ever existed! (you can test it out in the T3K plugin; I have the buffer at 20ms and tonality at 4.2kHz and I no longer lose the treble bite that I love from high output pickups)

If this isn’t the appropriate place to ask for this or the request itself isn’t the purpose of this category please do let me know and I’ll immediately delete this post if needed!

Hello, @guky667. I would like to recommend you checking the @Whythisreason material of creating plugins using Vibe coding tools: 💡 Cookbook Challenge – Getting started - #7 by Whythisreason (check the video)

And also there is the mod plugin cookbook created by Gianfranco
See the forum topic The mod-plugin-cookbook: using AI to create new plugins too

Thank you! I’ll take the time to go through those materials :folded_hands:t2:

@guky667 happy to have a play with that as well. But essentially fire up a Claude session with the playbook and point it at the github repo with the description you have put in this thread. I think that will get you something quickly. :slight_smile: Let me know if you get stuck, happy to help.

I went through the docs and my mind is blown into a million pieces, this is insane! I just had Gemini (Argon 4, high thinking) do everything in 1 prompt :exploding_head:

If anyone feels adventurous and has some spare time to give it a try please let me know how it behaves, otherwise I’m going to eagerly await my unit and try this out.

I’d like to extend an immense amount of gratitude for everyone involved in putting together those materials; I couldn’t think of a better way to make this more streamlined or easier - absolutely bang up job, y’all :green_heart:

@guky667 Ha! sounds really good on your setup!
On my MOD DUO it’s clearly not coping.. :laughing: xruns a plenty.
Wonder what it does on a Dwarf. Also the plugin ins/outs on MOD are a bit misplaced, so if you made it with the playbook i might run the .mk file back into it and troubeshoot why it placed the jacks inside the GUI instead of on the sides.

Cheers,
