new in version 1.1.0 :
- adding 3 continuous filters;
- increased the size of the chart window.
new in version 1.2.0:
- adding "Edge" filter slope as "Gaussian" with Gamma=0.5;
- adding "Circular" filter slope;
- change "Gamma" parameter range to 1 .. 2.5
Could you give more information please? I don't understand how to use it. I'm not even sure about what it is supposed to do.
This plugin extracts bass from the source signal using low-pass filter and send it to the separate channel (LFE).
It can be useful if you have 2.1 or 5.1 audio system.
Standard realization of this task used IIR or analog filters, which fast, but produce phase shifting.
The high-quality filtering needs linear-phase characteristic, which can be achieved only by using digital FIR filter.
This plugin also allows to use various type of filters, not only Linkwitz-Riley, which often using for split frequences. The filter slopes builds using piecewise functions in logarithmic scale. If you need a Linkwitz-Riley filter, select "HyperTangent" - their slopes are identical.
Component crashes when clicking on the configure selected in the DSP Manager.
Chibisteven, is it first install or after previous version?

First install.
Find the problem. The plugin conflicts with Winamp Bridge (which I seldomly use) resulting in crashes.
Conflict with Matrix Mixer (foo_dsp_mm) also found (this one I use a lot) and if in the DSP Chain with your Subwoofer plugin and you seek a song using the progress bar it results in a crash.
Chibisteven, thanks for it. I try to reproduce this crash first.
According to your failure report, crash raised when logarithm function calculated.
Even if the argument is illegal, foobar not crashed on my pc.
I can try to use another math lib.
Chibisteven, on my Win8.1 with Foobar 1.3.10 any combination of Subwoofer / Matrix Mixer / Winamp DSP Bridge works well, no any conflict found.
May be problem plugin is not mine.
Did you can send me a full content of your "foobar2000" folder, including "C:\Users\...\AppData\Roaming\foobar2000"?

I'm running a fresh install of Windows 10 Pro - 64 bit on Windows 7 era machine without issues.
Please try this plugin with different parameters and feedback your experiences. I used my own formula to generate the frequency response, and I'm interested in opinion from other people.

Hi, Thanks so much for your work, I was looking for a plugin like this, I had to disable Resampler(PPHS) to avoid foobar crashes when changing songs.
I just tried this today, it worked great. I'm using the SoX resampler before it with no issues. One feature that I'd like to see is the option not to high pass the main channels. I typically run my main speakers full range and low pass the subs.
Thanks for a great component!
I have a couple more feature requests that would really make this easy to use and set up:
- LFE level control - the ability to adjust the volume of the subwoofer relative to the main speakers
- LFE delay - plus or minus time delay to allow putting the subs where desired, behind or in front of the mains, minus delay would delay the mains
- Presets - the ability to store two or so presets that can be switched between quickly
- Bypass mode or save settings - it would be great to be able to either leave the DSP in the active list and just bypass it or keep your settings if you remove it from the active list so when you put it back into the active list you don't have to start over
OK, more than a couple. The first two in particular would allow you to dial in the system from your listening chair as well as providing greater flexibility for sub placement.
Thanks for any consideration you may give to these.
Someone pointed out to me on another thread that you can save DSP chains so the request for the plugin to remember settings goes away. One down!
I've been using this component for a little over a week on two different PCs and I have to say that I'm getting the best sub/main integration I've ever had. Sound quality seems unchanged, no glitches or issues of any kind.
I tried using channel mixer component to adjust the level and delay of the LFE channel but Foobar crashed as soon as I tried to view the DSP window. Reporting the incident gave the message that channel mixer was a known buggy component so it got promptly removed.
xsdaver, thanks for your feedback! I will add the ability for LFE delay and disable high-pass filtering a bit later.
I think, the LFE digital level control is not good idea, because for prevent clipping it can be only quiet.
Thanks for the reply. The ability to adjust the LFE level relative to the main channels is pretty important for me. In my case, I'm driving three subwoofers. While I can adjust the level of each, each is independent so I will either have to match them every time I adjust the overall LFE level or live with them at different levels. In the end, this may not be all that big a deal if they are close, but I'd prefer to have them as close as possible. If I can go through the exercise of matching the level of the three together once and then adjust the overall level through the software it works out much better, at least for me.
If clipping is a concern, perhaps the ability to attenuate both the LFE and main channel is the best way to go. Thoughts?
I was getting set up to balance the subs and mains. I had generated a pink noise track in Audacity so I can play it through FooBar and have it processed like a music track. Only FooBar with this subwoofer component separates the bass so I can send the bass to LFE outputs. If this component is loaded in the DSP stack only bass comes out. If I remove it, the mains work, but of course no bass. It is the only active DSP. I'm baffled. Any suggestions?

Sorry, but i can't understand what your problem.
If I play a track that is pink noise, nothing comes out of left and right, only the LFE channel has the noise. The LFE channel noise is filtered so it is only the low frequencies and seems to be getting through the plug-in correctly. There is no sound coming out of the main left and right speakers. With music it works great, with noise nothing out of left and right. If I take the subwoofer plug-in out of the DSP stack the left and right work, but of course no subwoofer.
You can download the noise file I used here;
http://www.xsxpress.net/files/pinknoise.zip (http://www.xsxpress.net/files/pinknoise.zip)
or create one with Audacity, or I'm sure there are plenty on the web if you don't happen to have one.
Your file "Pink Noise 96kHz -0_8.flac" is mono. On mono files, plugin produce two-channels output - one center and one subwoofer. You have not sound at left and right speakers because it sounds at center speaker. To solve this, convert input signal to stereo before subwoofer plugin.
I figured if I did not have the create center channel box checked it would not create a center channel. Apparently it does? Now that I know what it is doing I can route the center channel to left and right to get the output I'm looking for.
Hi, I am using foobar v1.3.9 because later versions does not load most of the VST plugins correctly.
When I'm using the subwoofer component(v1.2.0) along with any of the DSP components (Dolby headphone, DTS Neural, or Channel mixer) foobar crashes when I seek with the playback position.
I am not able to attach failure log file here! I will give the details in next post

senjacob, please try this (https://foobar2000.org/getcomponent/791b1d4a04f692cac86f01c4b5c2e3d9/6a39c1dfcef4bd9844a25ba512aa5d47/Subwoofer_v1.1.1.fb2k-component) version.
hi, I want to compliment this plugin, really interesting the idea of implementing a linear phase eq ... no professional dsp does it!
i agree with the other request from xsdaver (delay and level for sub) but i wolud to ask you another thing:
I do not know what interfaces you use to have a separate LFE channel, but with professional audio device there is a need to select the physical output of the sound card to have another channel for the subwoofer, otherwise from my L / R outputs I only get a high pass filter ...
So, could you integrate a system to select the interface output to use for the LFE channel?

I personally use a custom ASIO channel mapping for my DAC. If you're DAC has an ASIO driver and really offers more than one set of outputs, you easily have 2.1 outs. I route LFE to 3/4 for my UR44, and of course 1/2 are L/R to my monitors. The ASIO plugin for foobar will then let you set up the actual mapping.
I also would also like delay support. Up until today I had been using channel mixer as a subwoofer DSP, setting it to 6 channels and only leaving L/R and LFE checked. It was a bit finicky at times, especially if trying to adjust it while audio is playing.... Anyways, switching back and forth between my (many times perfected) channel mixer settings and your plugin which I set a slope up rather quickly, the response is obviously much better with yours.
Phase is unfortunately way to big for me though, so I'll still stick with channel mixer in until you hopefully add delay.
So I actually want to request two things, first is obviously the delay. The second however, would be individual control of the slopes for both LFE and L/R. Trying to pair my monitors with my sub, it sounds much better if I let them rolloff naturally with no crossover and only set sub. I still want to have a crossover on them though, but really just a subsonic, so rolloff around 35-40hz.

I not plan to do this yet, for some reasons. But you can use Matrix Mixer (http://skipyrich.com/wiki/Foobar2000:Matrix_Mixer) for this purpose.
New update is great. Definitely the best plugin for subwoofer management. Delay is working fantastic.
All I get when I start foobar is:
Failed to load DLL: foo_dsp_subwoofer.dll
Reason: This component is missing a required dependency, or was made for different version of foobar2000.
I have foobar2000 1.3.16 on Win10 Pro 64bit.
Make sure that you use official version of foobar. Try to copy foo_dsp_subwoofer.dll to \foobar2000\components\ folder manually.
Hi,
I installed the plugin and it works great, no more bass in my speakers but... where did they go? I mean, the may sound silly but on what type of output can i get these bass to send them to my woofers?
Thanks in advance

5.1 soundcard have a additional stereo out with center/LFE channels. Subwoofer outputs at LFE channel.
Also check your soundcard mixer - it must be in surround mode, not stereo.
Ok thanks, that's the info i've been missing. Any ideas if this is possible with a secondary soundcard instead of a 5.1 one?
Any ideas if this is possible with a secondary soundcard instead of a 5.1 one?
Not possible. No way to synchronize audio from different soundcards.
Ok thanks for all your answers !
Last question, a bit out of context but whil I have experts on the hand... Do you know if it's possible to split the sound from the computer tu 2 different cards: one program on one soundcard and another on on anoher soundcard (I don't need them to be synchronized)

Some programs have option for choice output device. If this option not present, they used default device, which selected at Windows Mixer. You can try change default device before each program launch.

Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=5555) and Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 (https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=30679) (x86).
I was wondering if you could possibly make it so that you are able to set a separate crossover point for both LFE and mains, that way I can roll off my mains a bit lower than I actually crossover my sub. Say I cross my sub over at 80hz, I'm usually not happy with cutting so much low end from my studio monitors. Crossing over the sub as high as 80hz has typically helped me with nulls, so I would prefer to disable the HPF, but I still want to cut below ~50hz from my monitors. This gives me a lot more headroom and way less distortion at higher volumes.
Also, adding a simple subsonic filter for the LFE output would be awesome, that way I don't have to resort to using a VST plugin such as fabfilter pro-q 2 (which is linear phase).
Version 2.0 released (https://foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_dsp_subwoofer).
Added independent frequency adjustment; removed DBA support.
Is there any way to reduce or remove the +6dB boost from adjusting the frequency cutoffs independently?
Download link on official site (and reply #42) is for version 1.4 not 2.0, it been pulled or something?

Sorry, it just a little bug - versions 1.4 and 2.0 are identical. Plugin with correct version number uploaded.

do not use independent adjustment.

What does it mean?
The component seems to be a Visual Studio 2010 compile and it's set to use dynamic C runtime linking. You need to install https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555 (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555).
Hi, Wow, a Linear Phase cross over!! I'm new to Foobar2000 and I've only just installed and opened the app, but this is my first impression: Mindblowing!
What I noticed that I found mindblowing:
* The amazing flexibility and ability to control settings
* Ms delay resolution down to 0.1 ms. Just wow!
* Negative delay - so that sub may be "prelayed"
* 12 different types of cross over filters and with adjustability within each!! Wow!
* Adjustable FIR length in fractions of ms
* Snap back to original settings when unsync/resync - nice safety net when/if I mess things up
Features I found that possibly could be added are:
* Additional names for the filters such as their db/octave or "Linkwitz-Riley" etc
* A dual ms/distance scale for the delay
* A version of delay adjust for when multiple subs are used and they are not equidistant to the main speakers/listener.
* In addition, I understand this is mono signal for the sub channel, could it be made into stereo?
I have a few questions:
If I unsync L/R there will be some influence on the total cross over frequency/timing curve. I guess this influences phase? Will this enable stereo LFE if I have more subs? I have two, and cross them over quite high in the range, so I will need stereo or lower the cross over frequency.
Bass processing is resource intensive. The adjustable FIR lengths, which I assume is the same as "filter taps" (please correct me if I misunderstand) enables a balance between resource usage, the time it takes to process and quality. If I set it to max, the 700 ms, I assume this will render the highest resolution in the bass. Is this correct?
Thank you for this outstanding plug in!!
Ignore that stereo question. I guess unsyncing L/R could enable off-axis listening?
Thank you for this outstanding plug in!!
Hi, thanks for reply - you make me very happy!
Additional names for the filters such as their db/octave or "Linkwitz-Riley" etc
"Linkwitz-Riley" identical to "Classic" filter. I named it to "classic", because it draws by another formula at logarithmic scale and parametrized by another concept. I don`t like db/octave regulator, because it reflect physical realization with discrete steps.
A dual ms/distance scale for the delay
Yes, i think about this.
* A version of delay adjust for when multiple subs are used and they are not equidistant to the main speakers/listener.
* In addition, I understand this is mono signal for the sub channel, could it be made into stereo?
In first versions i made a support of second sub with independent delay and volume, but remove it later. Two reasons: it make using of plugin harder and no one use it. I plan to make independent plugin for this at future, if anybody need it. You can use Matrix Mixer (http://skipyrich.com/wiki/Foobar2000:Matrix_Mixer) (or some another) yet.

Unsync mode is just simple equalization, no other side-effects.

No, more taps no make higher resolution, it needs only for "brickwall" filtering and some peoples who like big taps. 700 ms = 32768 taps at 44.1 kHz samplerate. For example, the impulse response of "Soft" filter at 100Hz with width=2:

Yes, please do. Bring it back!! I need it!! I use my dual "subs" up to ca 300 Hz and they will need individual alignment with the main speakers. There are other benefits of dual subs, for example when used with room correction software, they can be used to lift the dips in the response, that occur (not the way I have set them up, just to highlight other benefits of multiple subs).
I take the opportunity to return to the stereo question. Since this is built on LFE concept, doest that mean that stereo cannot be created in the dual sub independent plugin?
Thank you also for the Matrix Mixer link. I'll check it out.
I will be eagerly waiting for the dual sub independent plugin!!
Thank you again!
I have to add, the interface is SO easy to use. Just switching between the curves, setting the frequency, and sliding width it's really, really nice. And fast. A lot of fun to use!

You mean independent LFE for left and right channels?
Yes, that's what I mean.
BTW, I've never seen so many types of crossovers applied to audio anywhere. I'm looking them up, to find out what their backgrounds are. I'm curious about what made you create this great application, and what your background is. A mathematician?
Yes, that's what I mean.
OK, i think about this.

No, i`m not mathematician. Say more: i have not subwoofer even:) Programming, graphics, DSP and mathematics is my hobbies. I have some crazy ideas of non-standard audio processing, and this filters - one of them. My other interests - multichannel stereo splitting using fft, triple (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,108040.0.html) and quadro (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,108192.0.html) (ancient versions).
Cool! What, no sub! :-D I really like your creative approach! Graphics - your structure and layout of the subwoofer crossover is great. Really easy to use, great clarity and structure.
DSP applied to audio is fantastic. I got into it for room correction, almost 20 years ago. Other ways of playing with audio is Ambiophonics, which you may have heard of, multichannel spherical Ambisonics, and binaural Bacch 3D.
Thank you for the triple and quadro links!
I'm trying to link your crossovers with known names. The classical is a modified Linkwitz-Riley if I remember correctly. I found a few pages of Douglas Self's book on active crossovers online. He names a lot of crossovers by their creators (perhaps you'll be in the next edition). Of your crossovers would you know if any of them correspond with any of the following names (and if so, which):
Le Cleac'h
Kreskovsky
Duelund
Butterworth
Bessel
Harsch
In the book he also discusses the types of crossover filters.
The first distinction Self makes is all pole vs non-pole, where an all poles have montonic roll-offs, meaning that once the response starts going down, it continues down. Non poles may come back up again, as in notch filters. Your filters are all pole.
The next distinction is symmetric vs asymmetric as in having identical vs non identical slopes of both sides of the crossover. All of your filters are symmetric, showing identical slopes on both sides.
The next distinction Self makes is between all pass vs constant power vs constant voltage filters. All pass is a filter that sums the filter outputs in front of the loudspeaker to create a flat frequency response, aka amplitude, or SPL, or voltage response, on axis. All pass refers to the phase response with the phase of a first order all pass filter changing 180 degrees over the audio band, whereas a second order all pass filter phase changing 360 degrees across the audio band. The constant power crossover output filter sums the filter "...in front of the loudspeaker to create a flat frequency response in terms of power rather than in terms of SPL", that is it sums the total radiated power of both on-axis and off-axis response. This doesn't give a flat on-axis frequency response. The constant voltage crossover filter subtracts the output filter from the input, and when summing dual outputs a reconstructed linear phase waveform response is produced. The constant voltage filter shows a 6dB/octave output, regardless of the filter slope. I believe this is what your filters produce.
Self also discusses first-order crossovers stating that it is the only type that can accomplish linear phase, minimum phase and flat frequency response, hence it is the only type that allows a waveform to be accurately reconstructed when summing a high frequency and low frequency signal paths. The shallowness of the first-order crossover slope of 6dB/octave requires that the loudspeaker drive elements can handle at least 2-3 octaves above and below the cross over frequency.
I'm trying to link your crossovers with known names.
I want to believe that my filters are unique - because all formulas was created by me. They designed as piecewise-defined function (except classic, erf, exponential and gudermannian) at logarithmic scale and named from a used functions names, which connect flat passband and stopband (and symmetric by design). They have not and can`t be have a physical prototypes.
The classical is a modified Linkwitz-Riley if I remember correctly.
Not quite.
Linkwitz–Riley filter can be parametrized only by integer step of roll-off values (12/24/48/etc dB/octave). Classic filter parametrized by required amplitude at cutoff frequency (-40 dB hard coded to have close view to other filters), but intersects with Linkwitz–Riley at some values. For example,
12 db/oct -> width = 6.62936
24 db/oct -> width = 3.31468
48 db/oct -> width = 2.20979
Ok, thank you! What about this: it looks like all the crossovers, regardless of the filter slope, do cross over at -6dB in your application. Is that the equivalent of this ""The constant voltage filter shows a 6dB/octave output, regardless of the filter slope."?
Hi, great plug in!!! Is there any way to just 2.1 audio? The plugin creates always 5.1?
I've been using this plug-in for a while, the improvements through its life have been great. However, I discovered what I consider to be a bug - it breaks gapless playback. It took me a while to figure out it was this plug-in, but disabling it restores gapless playback every time.
Problem: App crashing immediately at start in the year of our lord 2020.
Failed to load DLL: foo_dsp_subwoofer.dll
Reason: This component is missing a required dependency, or was made for different version of foobar2000.
"Failed to load DLL....
Solution:
Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=5555) AND Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 (https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=30679) (x86).
Worked for me! I thought I had a newer version of these "Redistributables" that superseded these ancient ones from 2010. I was wrong, they are necessary in this case. I got trigger happy with removing programs one day. As it turns out I have no idea what I'm doing :^) Thank you for the app and fix.
Running: Win10 (x64) v2004 19041.572. foobar 2000 1.6.2 beta 6
FYI: Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package is no longer available for DL. Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 (x86) is, however, but it does not solve the crash at startup by itself. Unfortunately for me, it is 5/12/2021. After enjoying the use of this DSP, and probably due to Foobar update, for about 2 years now, it won't start. It's amazing how different, in a bad way, on my 2.1, everything sounds. I've become addicted to this awesome little DSP "Subwoofer". Should I make a new thread? Just let go and move on? Cheers!

I too had this problem and fixed it by downloading and installing a redistributables all in one pack. Techpowerup has a pack called Visual C++ Redistributable Runtimes All-in-One. installing these fixed the problem. Hope that helps.
Actually you can now download the VC 2010 x86 redist here: https://download.microsoft.com/download/1/6/5/165255E7-1014-4D0A-B094-B6A430A6BFFC/vcredist_x86.exe (https://download.microsoft.com/download/1/6/5/165255E7-1014-4D0A-B094-B6A430A6BFFC/vcredist_x86.exe)
Change the x86 in the link to x64 for the 64-bit version. Both are digitally signed by M icrosoft.
Do I need this for better experience?
I have Edifier R1850DB pair + Edifier T5 Sub connected to SoundBlaster AE-5 digital connection (SPDIF) together with FxSound soft.
When Iv activate Subwoofer in Active DSPs Iv lost bass completely...
Some short manual for noobs (Like me) would be great ;)
p.s. Windows 10 speakers settings - Stereo
Some questions about this component:
1. Is there any documentation which describes the various filters available?
2. Are any of the filters considered better than others? Any reason to use anything other than the default filter?
3. When given a multi-channel audio signal as input does the DSP use only FL+FR or does it use all channels to derive the bass frequencies?
4. Are the bass frequencies removed from the input channels or are input channels left untouched?
5. What does L/R sync do?
6. What is the expected LFE channel output volume level relative to the other channels? Are additional volume adjustments typically necessary?
Any or all responses much appreciated. :)
Bug report:
It looks like foo_dsp_subwoofer assumes all 5-channel input signals are using a 5.0 channel layout, so it ends up adding an LFE channel even when the input already has a LFE channel. For example, when given a 4.1 input signal (FL, FR, LFE, SL, SR) the DSP remaps the existing LFE channel to FC and generates a new LFE channel. The result is a 5.1 output that contains two LFE channels, one in FC position and another in LFE position.
Hello there, I am new to foo_subwoofer.
I have a question about Source/LFE delay. How do I interpret it?
Does positive number mean source is delayed by # ms? Therefore negative number means LFE is delayed by # ms?
Thank you.
It looks like this may be an abandoned component. Any chance it will be ported to work with x64? Or is there something else that does something similar? I need a line level stereo crossover at 80 Hz, ideally with a 24dB Linkwitz-Riley slope.
