UPDATED for Stereo Tool v9.21+
Here's my first public Stereo Tool preset. This preset is inspired by my time as a boy living in the natural beauty of the woods of Minnesota USA.
Nothing was done to the multiband AGC settings to compromise the spectral balancing abilities in order to "hide" incorrect action within distortion, unlike almost all presets that I've heard for any processor. This is
extremely challenging to achieve for any processor no matter how it's adjusted.
This preset is calibrated for -24 LKFS / 0 LU input loudness. If you send it louder audio, the input AGC will protect against really bad things happening, but one of the main design goals with this preset is to have zero sound of wide-band compression. If you are running too much loudness into Stereo Tool, you may end up hearing the operation of the AGC. Please visit
EBU PLOUD for more information.
The preset comes with HD (also for Streaming), and FM settings for 75uS and 50uS emphasis.
You MUST use Stereo Tool v9.21 or later or this won't sound correct.

Thanks for listening
