Sets the distortion potentiometer wiper position (linear mapping — beware, the original device uses a logarithmic pot) to the given value in coeffs.

Valid range: [0.f (low distortion/gain/resistance), 1.f (high distortion/gain/resistance)].

Default value: 0.f.

bwp_smintheus_dist_amp_set_cutoff_ground()

bwp_smintheus_dist_amp_coeffs_is_valid()

static inline char bwp_smintheus_dist_amp_coeffs_is_valid(
	const bwp_smintheus_dist_amp_coeffs * BW_RESTRICT coeffs);

Tries to determine whether coeffs is valid and returns non-0 if it seems to be the case and 0 if it is certainly not. False positives are possible, false negatives are not.

coeffs must at least point to a readable memory block of size greater than or equal to that of bwp_smintheus_dist_amp_coeffs.

bwp_smintheus_dist_amp_state_is_valid()

static inline char bwp_smintheus_dist_amp_state_is_valid(
	const bwp_smintheus_dist_amp_coeffs * BW_RESTRICT coeffs,
	const bwp_smintheus_dist_amp_state * BW_RESTRICT  state);

Tries to determine whether state is valid and returns non-0 if it seems to be the case and 0 if it is certainly not. False positives are possible, false negatives are not.

If coeffs is not BW_NULL extra cross-checks might be performed (state is supposed to be associated to coeffs).

state must at least point to a readable memory block of size greater than or equal to that of bwp_smintheus_dist_amp_state.
