(Old default numbers were 8000-9000 Hz) - Blog post pre-processing, MP3 and declipping OLD CHANGES: - GUI: Added tooltips! - Added exciter (rest of list removed) - Added (not yet fully ok) Polar Stereo support for OIRT FM stations. - Error (crash) on some systems should be solved - Show something in settings that have been changed (for example a dot next to the name of the setting). - Add license check function: extern "C" bool stereoTool_IsLicenseValid(gStereoTool* st_instance); - Make scope skinnable - Bug: i found one malfunction in the BS412 Section: If your switch off the FM Option and leave the BS412 Limiter in On-Position the Advanced Clipper only works in a reduced way: You can´t change the Clipper drive even if you pull the handle. The BS412 Limiter is greyed out instead so maybe someone doesn´t find the failure. If You switch the BS412 to off everything works fine again! Just a small detail, but maybe someone will have problems… -> I think I have fixed it (but there are a lot of different combinations of settings that can impact the result, I hope I haven't missed any). The next version shouldn't have this problem anymore, also, when BS412 is used I have now disabled the Advanced Clipper Drive slider. I've been busy hiding a lot more deprecated features (if they are set to their default value). This should make the GUI a bit simpler. Stuff that's now hidden (still there and still functional if you really want to use it): - "Bass AGC (Old)" panel - "Classic Multiband Compressor" panel - "Classic Singleband" panel - "Pre-limiter" panel (in Advanced Clipper) - "Leif's clipper efficiency modification" checkbox - "Composite clipping Strictness (CPU)" checkbox - Phase rotation: ""At start of processing" checkbox - AGC "Compatibility & behavior" header - All Singleband and Multiband "Compressor type" (Analog/Digital) pull-downs - Multiband and Natural Dynamics "Compatibility mode (bad)" for Flat Frequency Response checkbox - "Bass protection (Deprecated)" header in Advanced Clipper -> Bass - "Highs gap protection: *" in Advanced Clipper -> Highs - "Smooth slope" in Advanced Clipper -> Distortion - "Upsampled highs clipping (useless)" in Advanced Clipper -> Distortion - Stokkemask: "Force Stokkemask even if not using Composite Clipping (bad for audio)" - BS412: ""De-basser non-ITU.1770 compatibility mode (bad)" - Right clicking now restores default again, mid or double right clicking restores last loaded preset (or startup) value. Bug: If you use FM and Normal output, with separately processed audio for streaming for Normal output, and for FM output enable pre-emphasis but *not* pre-emphasize output, then Normal output is not processed separately! - What is the pink line in the BS412 display? Maybe remove it. http://i.imgur.com/70mWvqp.png -> Ah no, it's the adjustment of the compressor thresholds. Needs to be added to Help page. - BS412 has VERY narrow jump on de-basser from 240 to 250 Hz. (Jump of multiple dB's). -> No, brown line jumps but actual output is smooth, so no problem. - BS412 bass filter doesn't use ITU1770 as it should but some weird other shape that goes up to about 250 Hz. - Need to support 2 default values and a RESET TO LAST LOADED VALUE reset option. - Hide not selected deprecated stuff - partially working! - Move Copyright stuff etc. also to command line version (maybe just copy it?) TODO: - Exciter: Try to improve tone behavior (should also reduce whole area around a spike I think - maybe configurable?) - Exciter: Broken at latency 512 - Exciter: Improve further, and make it configurable. - Add Polar stereo viewtopic.php?f=16&t=6233&p=33031#p33031 - MP3? - Try adding phase delay compensation - O skin - Also show tooltips for blocks of parameters. - Continue with finding parameters to hide |

Crashes of Tooltips are gone now, but strange: every time I close StereoTool normally (standalone 32-bit), I get this error message... Attachment: st_crash.PNG [ 42.66 KiB | Viewed 5317 times ] |

Hm, there was an issue with the DLL versions but not with the stand alone I think. I will run a rebuild now to check if that fixes it. |

Doesn't happen here. Please tell me: Does it happen immediately when you try to close it, or does it block for a while first? And is the Stereo Tool window still visible? |

Ok, never mind, I found the cause! So, I had added some logging to find the cause of a hangup earlier. But I hadn't removed that logging... and it was writing to a place that exists on my harddisk, but probably not on yours. |

Post subject: | Re: Stereo Tool 7.85 BETA |
I would be just happy if the next release - fixes the distortion of (mostly) piano instruments if voice protection in the classic multiband is used - and PNR settings in the VST plugin work without saving it in (temporary) settings before hitting "render" in Wavelab. ![]() ... and these are not new features I request, just that existing features, that are the reason for me buying the licenses, work. |
