Hi all,

I=E2=80=99d like to share some news about audio plugins originally writte=
n by=20
the brilliant developer Oto Sp=C3=A1l, whose work I=E2=80=99ve been a big=
 fan of for=20
a long time.

## Oto=E2=80=99s original Senderspike plugins:
https://senderspike.wordpress.com/

## Original non-GUI plugins (Linux VST2 builds):
https://github.com/xjjx/senderspike_plugins/releases/

## JUCE-based ports (work in progress)

I=E2=80=99ve started porting these plugins to JUCE. They are in VST2, VST=
3, and=20
LV2 formats.
This is still under active development, but the plugins are already=20
usable and ready for testing.

Current status:

* SN06 is complete =E2=80=93 OpAmp has a full working GUI editor
* Other are DSP fully funcional, but GUI editors are still work in progre=
ss
* Builds are produced via GitHub Actions, both for Linux and Windows

Latest CI build:
https://github.com/xjjx/senderspike_plugins/actions/runs/21938203666

## Notable differences from the original versions

* Originally, parameters were exposed to hosts only in normalized form=20
(0=E2=80=931).
 =C2=A0 I=E2=80=99ve added meaningful parameter display (e.g. VST2 effGet=
ParamName=20
support)) where possible.
* Knob behavior is slightly different =E2=80=94 I wasn=E2=80=99t able to =
perfectly=20
recreate the original behavior, but it=E2=80=99s close enough.
* Product codes has been changed to allow side-by-side testing with=20
older versions.
* SN06 contains resizable GUI code, but it's currently disabled.

## Repository branches
* master =E2=80=93 original plugins, recompiled for Linux
* juce =E2=80=93 current JUCE-based development branch
* vstgui =E2=80=93 unsuccessful attempt to upgrade to VSTGUI v4

Additionally, the repository includes a small script to fix the VST2=20
cache in Qtractor.

Feedback, testing, and bug reports are very welcome.

Best regards,
