Changes in Bliss v3.2
- Comprehensive Fused Multiply-Add (FMA) optimizations across the entire audio processing chain providing a performance boost on modern CPUs.
- Completely rewritten interpolator with platform-specific optimizations: AVX2+FMA for modern x86 processors, Apple Silicon NEON with native FMA instructions.
- Zero Delay Feedback + Topology-Preserving Transform (ZDF+TPT) filter architecture with Newton-Raphson nonlinear solver for authentic analog modeling behavior.
- +6dB improved signal-to-noise ratio, 21% lower total harmonic distortion, and 3x better filter stability at extreme settings.
- Enhanced virtual analog modeling with topology-preserving transforms that maintain original analog circuit behavior and improved saturation characteristics.
- FMA-optimized reverb algorithms with multi-tap processing enhancements and cleaner reverb tails with reduced CPU overhead.
- Improved biquad filter operations and enhanced chorus/delay effects using fused multiply-add instructions for maximum precision.
- Seamless parameter changes with smart coefficient smoothing eliminating filter jumps during automation and note retriggering.
- Comprehensive Effects Preset System: Click effect section labels (Reverb, Chorus, Delay) to access curated preset collections with intelligent categorization.
- Reverb presets include Hall sizes, Rooms, Plates, Springs, and Cathedral with auto-enable functionality for streamlined workflow.
- Chorus presets feature Classic, Wide, Vintage Analog, and Modern Digital variations with optimized parameter combinations.
- Delay presets offer tempo-synced and free-running options including ping-pong variations and filtered delay effects.
- New Wander LFO type providing organic, evolving modulation with smooth random amplitude variations for natural, non-repetitive movement.
Available in VST/VST3, AU and AAX plugin formats and as standalone software, Bliss 3.2 is priced 99 USD/EUR at the discoDSP store and from PluginFox, ADSR Sounds and Best Service. The update is free for users of Bliss 3.x.
