About:
ZitaConvolver is a high-performance C++ library designed for real-time audio convolution. It utilizes a partitioned convolution algorithm to efficiently process long impulse responses, making it ideal for reverb and convolution effects. Its primary value is providing low-latency, low-CPU usage processing suitable for professional audio applications.
Key Features:
  • Partitioned convolution algorithm
  • Optimized for low latency and CPU usage
  • Supports single-precision floating-point processing
  • C++ library with a simple API
Use Cases:
  • Implementing realistic reverb in audio software
  • Creating convolution-based guitar amplifier simulators
  • Real-time audio effect processing in DAWs
Alternatives:
  • FFmpeg – FFmpeg is a general-purpose multimedia framework that can perform convolution but is much heavier and less optimized for real-time audio processing than ZitaConvolver.
  • LV2 Convolver Plugins – LV2 plugins provide similar functionality but are tied to specific plugin architectures, whereas ZitaConvolver is a standalone library for integration into custom applications.
