Sort of... I finally made some sense of the code. it seems there's a 1pole
filter whose parameters depend on these low/high values and the delay
length! In the comment of the code we find a filter equation, something
like:* "yn = (2*gl*gh ) / (gl+gh) x + (gl-gh) / (gl+gh) y[n-1]" *- where
*gl* & *gh* are derived from these low and high values. Here's a code
simplification of it



    *for*(i = 0; i < x->x_ctl.c_order; i++){

        gl = pow(10, -0.003 * x->x_ctl.c_length[i] / low);

        gh = pow(10, -0.003 * x->x_ctl.c_length[i] / high);

        x->x_ctl.c_gain_in[i] = 2*gl*gh / (gl+gh);

        x->x_ctl.c_gain_state[i] = (gl-gh) / (gl+gh);



I don't really get how this filter fully works yet, but I can sort of get
the gist of it. I'm now in the quest to find what is the source of this
filter, and maybe try it out independently to see how it behaves. But
perhaps a more sophisticated method, with a settable crossover frequency
could be used instead.


And yeah, it seems vanilla's [rev2~] and [rev3~] are implementations of
feedback delay networks like it's been said here on this thread.


cheers
