Sorry - links are updated now. If they work fine I'll upload them to the Perfect Declipper website.

Post subject: | Re: Stereo Tool 8.15 BETA | ||
No prob, and thanks! ![]() The DSP is working fine here for general local listening use after manual configuration. Some issues to note: 1. Is the the clipper working? I do not see much waveform difference enabled or disabled. Even when enabled, there are still some spikes to 100%. The clipper meter in previous Perfect Declipper versions to verify action is missing, too. 2. The threads slider in the CPU settings blows out its table. Perhaps move down a row. 3. None of the installer provided presets appear to load. Installer preset file(s) or similar missing, perhaps? Could be related to issue #4 below. 4. There is an exception when trying to do a factory reset for all settings or attempting to load a recent preset file from the present dropdown menu.

Post subject: | Re: Stereo Tool 8.15 BETA |
Hi, I just fixed issues 2-4, the clipper was indeed working. Sorry, I just tried if the software worked (and it did) and I thought that was it (I was mainly working on Stereo Tool and SST). So, I never noticed those crashes when loading or resetting. And yes, those crashes were preventing preset loads to finish. Turns out that during the reset, I was explicitly calling an internal reset for the multiband compressors (which don't exist) - that caused the crash. I'll run a new build soon. (Probably in 2 hours during our lunch break). |
