Stereo Tool

Aggressive processing for CHR.

Tuned in VST with Reaper.

Used the 2013 HOT 100 as my working set (HQ CD source).

note: AGC was tuned to become active only with the very highest RMS inputs, as a distortion limiter.
I did not see it necessary to use the AGC as a constant rider for level; I use multiband for that instead.
If you use normalized high quality source, this should be fine.

UPDATED:

The MAIN AGC leveler is disabled by dropping the attack to 0.
However, the COMPRESSOR at the end of the AGC (blue meter), is slightly more active now; used for smooth leveling.

Multiband needed to be retuned to compensate and to improve consistency and loudness.

Phase rotator redone.

used the same working source as previous
