zip contents
------------
	readme.txt	this
	SPICE1_02.dll	the PlugIn
		

Installation
------------
Copy the SPICE.dll to the Cubase VST\Vstplugins directory and restart Cubase.



Short Manual:
-------------
The depth controll is used to define the part of the 'deliniarization curve'
that is used for the incoming signal. If you put it to 0.5, half of the curve
is used. 
If you want to see what SPICE is doing, use it as an inserted effect on a 
sawtooth signal an watch the amlification curve on Scopion.
If you don't possess a sawtooth.wav and can't produce it, feel free to ask me 
for it. 


There are 3 types of distortion:
DIST, VALVE, TAPE - don't take the names tooo seriously !

IMPORTANT: If you set preamp to 2.0 in a master effect, it works the same as 
an inserted effect with preamp = 1.0, because the signals in the master line 
are scaled down. (I never understood why!!!)





Bugs:
-----
No bugs known, but:
I'm very interested to fix new bugs you'll find. But there's no guarantee !!!
