Wavetable and Sample converter for MiniFreak V VST

https://github.com/negligible-mass/minifreak-converter/

This is a sample and wavetable converter for the MiniFreak V that I vibecoded with Claude. I've done a lot of testing and haven't run into issues, but I would be interested in any feedback you folks have.

I would highly recommend that you DO NOT sync these to your hardware at this time because there is no known way to remove the samples once loaded. Even a factory reset does not remove the loaded samples.

This was inspired by a similar tool (from github/mtizim) and is a single HTML file that detects both sample and wavetable .wav files and converts them into .raw12b and .raw files that can be loaded up in the MiniFreak V. Per the instructions in the app and on the github, you should create a separate directory from the default "Factory" folder found in the samples and WT folders in your MiniFreak app data. Samples that are loaded into the "Factory" folders get synchronized to the hardware and, as stated above, with no known way to remove these it could cause issues down the road.

Hope you enjoy!

The MiniFreak has an undocumented/hidden Notch filter type.

I've managed to reverse engineer (well, Claude Fable did...) the .mnfx binary files and found a hidden Notch filter type that seems to work flawlessly in the VST. Perhaps it was abandoned, or perhaps it was planned for future updates and got left in. Either way, I thought this was interesting.
