BETA 761-010

Windows 32 bit:
Windows stand alone: http://www.stereotool.com/download/ster ... 61-010.exe
Winamp DSP: http://www.stereotool.com/download/dsp_ ... 61-010.exe

CHANGES:
- Added Ratio
- Added Feedback mode
- Fixed out-of-control behavior for certain extreme settings
- Fixed some more weird behavior things if the difference between Attack and Release is REALLY huge (behavior was bumpy and caused clicking sounds).
- Known issue: both Shape On settings must be enabled. I will probably remove them in the next build anyway so I'm not going to fix it.

The compressor should be complete now. Maybe some fine-tuning can still be done (esp. wrt Oil Temperature rise and fall speeds and Shape). Of course I still need to add feedback mode, ratio and side chains.

Oil temperature slider will make the time to reach the target level on attack roughly constant regardless of how big the jump in level is. Basically it will make the speed 'stay constant', similar to 'inertia' in the current SB and MB compressors. (But inertia has never worked on Attack and now it does). Note: I still need to make some changes (currently the oil can heat up instantly and that's not good, especially for release, so please don't use it for release; also the cooling down of the oil will affect the attack and release shape and I haven't implemented that yet in my model).


OLD CHANGES:
Fixed a lot of bugs, will type the details here later. Oil Temperature is now in % and didn't work properly before. PLEASE LOAD THE DEFAULT SETTINGS for the new compressor or it will sound horrible.
Changed Attack Time, Release Time, Attack Speed Threshold, Release Speed Threshold to understandable values. Made 1.0 the 'standard' behavior for Shape.
- Added smoothing to oil temperature behavior for both attack and release.
Added Oil temperature behavior which was missing from my automatic (hydraulic) door model. Will explain below...
- Added another Peak mode slider in "New Singleband". The old one (from yesterday) works mainly on release, but in some cases the volume didn't go down fast enough on a loud sound. The new one works mainly on attack (higher value makes attack continue AFTER a peak.
- Changed Peak mode behavior in "New Singleband".
- New Singleband: Split Speed into Attack and Release Speed
- New Singleband: Made Attack and Release Speed Threshold relative to Speed - so you don't need to adjust it to change the shape.
- Added new Dequantizer filter to increase the bit depth of recordings.

TO DO:
Fix RDS time issue! viewtopic.php?f=6&t=5941&p=28209#p28209
Fix MB frequency band shift (10%, since 7.51 or 7.60)

Just a post to say thanks.
I like testing and playing with the new beta's

Tune attack and release times and then Feedback

Winamp DSP: http://www.stereotool.com/download/dsp_ ... 61-011.exe

CHANGES:
- Restored old Shape behavior from version 009
- Replaced 'Nonlinear Release' by 'Exponential Release', which works better and only needs 1 parameter. Use this to go up FASTER if you're down DEEPER.

BETA 761-012

Windows 32 bit:
Windows stand alone: http://www.stereotool.com/download/ster ... 61-012.exe
Winamp DSP: http://www.stereotool.com/download/dsp_ ... 61-012.exe

Note: Big rewrite of a lot of things. Output should be identical but if something doesn't work as expected I might have done something wrong. Ratio was broken and has been fixed. Attack and release times need to be set to HALF the values of the previous beta's for the same behavior, there was a bug in the calculation.

CHANGES:
- Rewrote all code
- Fixed Ratio
- Channels are not processed separately (wasn't the case before, and that was a bug)
- Fixed attenuation display
- Attack and Release times must be set to half the numbers of the previous beta's. Oil change speed must be doubled.

BETA 761-013

SOMETHING IS REALLY WRONG WITH VERSION 013. REMOVED FOR NOW.

CHANGES:
- Added lowpass filter to control signal to smooth out bad effects and remove distortion
- Added ITU-1770 mode to reduce pumping and improve level control
- Added Channel separation

Just "internet error"? It works fine here, files download in a few seconds.
