Ah, thank you for pointing that out. So if I wanted to use the title I have, I should write an article with that title. But even then it seems I wasn't in line with the quality of posts expected for this site. Will definitely keep that in mind for future posts.

Don’t let any of this discourage you tho. This is a great contribution to the community.

This site just has a preference to more technically descriptive titles.

Well I'm an engineer so that shouldn't be too hard, usually people want me to dumb it down!

Considering this project sat for a month with no stars and after this post (and one hour) it jumped to 134 stars, not discouraged at all!

You know friend, I haven’t tried your project (yet) but your documentation is excellent as are your responses to all the comments on this thread. I think you have a whole lot to be proud of and I haven’t even tried your plugin yet!!

I'm a mod here and have changed the title to one that fits the guidelines better. Don't worry—as others have said, it's a great post! I hope you'll continue to share your work on HN and maybe participate in other discussions you find interesting.

(For those who are curious, the submitted title was "Free guitar plugin on GitHub sounds like $600 tube amp by using deep learning".)

This is an unbelievably kind response. Nice job friend and thanks for working on a Saturday!!! :)
