Stereo Tool

This is the first preset that I have had no urge to play with over an extended period of time. A couple of notes...it's role in life is to be loud, open, clean and with delay low enough for listening off the air. To my ears, it meets all those conditions. The CPU load is light. It's rock solid on a Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6700 @ 2.66ghz. It does use Natural Dynamics but only 1 band of it. That gives the benefit but uses a fraction of the CPU resources. In the event that you want a bit more density, raise Quick Adjust>Aggressiveness to taste. In the very unlikely event that you want it to sound even more "open", adjust Main Levels Release Times Multiplier to a higher setting. These are both available under "Multiband" operating in the Expert mode. This preset was made using version 7.31 and uses the Marian Trace Alpha sound card.
