From what I've been reading, FModEX has the ability to apply Reverb and/or Chorus to MIDI Playback. I was wondering if two CVARs could be added, allowing you to enable such a feature?
like:
snd_midireverb 0/1
snd_midichorus 0/1
But, if FMODEx is anything like midi playback on a Sound Blaster, where you can adjust the amount of Reverb and Chorus, perhaps sliders in the Sound Options could work.
Reason I ask for this, is because I'm working on a DLS Bank for ZDoom-Based Ports, and while it already sounds very good, it sounds way better with Chorus and Reverb enabled. (like in WinAmp's Midi Plugin).
By the way, here's a preview of the DLS Bank:

Re: MIDI Playback Reverb/Chorus
Standard MIDI chorus and Reverb are controlled by a combination of the instruments and the song, not a global setting for everything. Instruments can be set to automatically feed to the chorus and/or reverb units, and the song can also set each channel so that any instrument played on that channel will do likewise.
I could hook up a DSP tree with chorus and reverb effects that would apply to any song (including non-MIDI), but I'm not sure how good it would sound.

Re: MIDI Playback Reverb/Chorus
Ah. Does ZDoom even consider those instruments/channels/song parts with Reverb and Chorus? If not, adding support for that might just be good enough for me.randy wrote:Standard MIDI chorus and Reverb are controlled by a combination of the instruments and the song, not a global setting for everything.

Though, I'm likely very wrong, but, is there a way you can detect whether or not the song being played is a MIDI, and only apply the DSP with Chorus and Reverb then?I could hook up a DSP tree with chorus and reverb effects that would apply to any song (including non-MIDI), but I'm not sure how good it would sound.
