Hothouse Examples

Important

We (try to) keep this page up to date, so check back often and don't forget to git pull the repo as a habit!

Getting the example .bin files

To flash these examples on your Hothouse, you will need to either:

• Setup a development environment as explained in the 10-Minute Quick Start, after which, you could compile the code and flash using make commands

... OR ...

• Download the compiled binaries from the latest release page and use the Electrosmith Daisy Programmer to flash them to the Hothouse (also explained in the 10-Minute Quick Start)

Neither approach is better than the other; it just comes down to your preference.

Stereo Examples

More coming soon ...

• StereoReverbWithTails - A great-sounding reverb with pre-delay, tails, and either true stereo-to-stereo or mono-to-stereo modes
• HarmonicTremVerb - Tremolo with rich harmonic and stereo "seasick" modes, and a stereo spring reverb effect
• ShimmerVerb - Shimmer reverb with modulated reverb tails (dual-mono and due for a true stereo update)
• ModDelay - Coming soon ... Modulated delay with vibrato or chorus mode, and a 5-minute looper
• TriChorus - Chorus effect with three voices; capable of lush 80s tones as well as totally broken sounds (making it a sort of Fuzz Factory of chorus pedals)
• StereoTest - A simple but useful utility project that generates a selectable wave type with variable frequency, amplitude, and panning options
• BasicSynth - Turns your Hothouse into a USB MIDI monophonic synth with multiple waveforms, Moog filter, resonance, attack and decay controls

Ported from DaisyExamples

Most of these are mono-to-stereo for now.

• BasicChorus - Tweakable chorus effect
• BasicFlanger - Simple flanger effect with adjustable delay and feedback
• BasicMultiDelay - 3 delay lines, each with tweakable time and feedback
• BasicPhaser - Flexible phaser with 1-8 stages (poles)
• BasicSpringReverb - Classic spring reverb effect
• BasicTremolo - Tremolo as simple as it gets

Pure Data (Pd) examples

Just a handful of examples intended to show how to use the Hothouse with Pure Data/Plugdata patches and hvcc.

Tip

Have a great effect you want to add to the repo? PULL REQUESTS ARE WELCOME!

• Buzzbox Octa Squawker - A versatile fuzz pedal with envelope-controlled autowah filter and octave generation. Contributed by Chris Brandt. NOTE: this one provides its own src dir, scripts, and documentation; send any questions to Chris.
• Flick - A great-sounding reverb, tremolo, and delay pedal inspired by the Strymon Flint. Contributed by Boyd Timothy. Video demo here.
• Frippertronics - A basic simulation of a "Frippertronics"-like effect, also loosely inspired by the Soma Cosmos. Contributed by Jon Philpott.
• Funbox-to-Hothouse - Earth, Mars, and Venus effects by Keith Bloemer of GuitarML, ported for Hothouse by Chris Brandt. Again, this pseudo-sub-project goes way off piste and probably should not be included in the repo with its current directory structure; but it's also really great-sounding stuff, so ...
• TapeSimulator - A vintage tape emulation effect featuring wow and flutter modulation, tape saturation, noise, and frequency filtering to recreate the character of analog tape machines. Contributed by David Hilowitz. This is a partial port of his super-cool, super-nerdy Equations Plugin.
• TremVerb - Tremolo / reverb effect contributed by tele_player on the Electrosmith Forums.
