In all the compressors, there'a Ratio setting, but also a Max ratio and Max ratio at. If those are used (Max ratio at higher than Ratio), that's this feature. I don't know which of the compressors it can be, it's probably either those in MB1, MB2 or the singleband compressor at the end.

Hans, can you please check Pre-Limiter used with Normal limit making some strange effect with thresh under 3-4dB at 64 bands or less.

Immersive Bass never removes deep bass (I've just measured it to make sure, it actually even adds a bit). There are no phase issues, not in the latest few beta's anymore (there were back when it was called Bassmathijzer). But, it's at the start of the chain, so it could be that things like Auto EQ, Bass EQ, multiband compressors and the bass clipper are pushing the deep bass down more if you add more warm bass.

Just listened to it standalone: You are right. It was just the standard settings that makes it sound like it does. I hear a lot of harmonic distortion on certain parts of music. For example on intro's where you only hear a (clean) kick drum. Setting the output lowpass frequency to 45Hz gives a better balance to my ears. These are currently my settings:

Stereo Tool 9.12 BETA014


[*] Linux MicroMPX version (32 bit)[/color]
[*] Linux MicroMPX version (64 bit)[/color]

Hans, are these downloadable ?

Not yet. This is x86 Linux, not Pi (you can use the existing versions for that).

Ah, it's indeed not switched off when you use limiting. Will fix that.

But would be good to work together
