CloudReverb vs. CloudSeed presets sound different

[VincyZed]

Hi there!

First of all, thanks a lot for working on this!
I've been playing with it a little bit, and I noticed that something did sound a bit off.
I've then compared the presets of CloudReverb and CloudSeed, and noticed that CloudReverb doesn't sound the same as CloudSeed.

I ran both side-by-side in FL Studio, with fixed size buffers enabled. Do you have an idea as to what could cause this under the hood?
I know the original did have some nasty bugs and crashes from time to time (like outputting a huge DC offset out of nowhere for instance, or the algo being sample-rate dependent in some places), could those have been fixed/changed, thereby causing the sound quality difference?

Looking forward to explore this a bit more and hopefully figure out what causes this, as Cloudseed has been one of my favorite sounding reverbs out there.

I agree.
I also noticed the difference between CloudReverb and CloudSeed on the same presets. I even used the same sound sample on both plugins in antiphase. Ideally, there should be silence. But there is none.

I realized that the CloudReverb presets are actually different from CloudSeed. 🥲 I made a small adjustment to the Chorus Delay preset, and I think the sound should be closer to CloudSeed now. You can try it out here.

(I also found that the dB value shown in the mixer section is wrong in v0.3, so the value you see is not the same as the one actually applied to the DSP. This has been fixed.)

By ear, the sound is almost identical! This is super)
The antiphase test showed that there is a difference.
But I repeat, by ear, it is as identical as possible)))
Thank you very much <3

Great! Thanks for trying this. I will do similar things with the other presets as well, and I'll probably make a new release.

Sorry for the late reply. Yes I can confirm that the Chorus Delay preset sounds much closer now if not identical!

@EugeneEON Pretty sure 2 instances of CloudSeed or (CloudReverb for that matter) won't cancel themselves anyway. Usually for reverbs, null-testing is not applicable.

@xunil-cloud I'll let you close this issue now either now or when you'll have gotten through all presets. Thank you!
