None of the work that's being done in these beta's really applies to the Winamp Plugin, does it?

(Just checking in case there's anything worth checking/helping test)
If you use the FM sound card output, then it does - otherwise no.

Do you get an error message?

RE; Windows 8.1 64 bit: No Hans I don't get any error messages. It just says it cannot load it. Opens up to the ST tool help guide, says Windows is searching for a solution, then it says Windows cannot find a solution and closes on it's own.

Also I am running BETA 10 at the moment and the compression seems to be working differently in the MB 1 and SB. This is WITHOUT the new compression enabled. :(

Just to make sure - older 64 bit versions did work? This message makes no sense (unless it's missing some DLL - I've seen one case before where it wouldn't give a proper error message in that situation).

Can you check the Windows event logs for an error? I'm not sure how you open those in Win8.1...

Edit: Search for 'Event' in Windows, that should show 'Event viewer'. Then go to Windows Logs -> Application. The error message should be there. Thanks!

The problem was apparently with my Norton antivirus. After Norton support did a reinstall and changed some settings I am now on Beta 13 and it's working fine in Win 8.1 :)
Sorry for the confusion.

Hi Hans,

Seems to work fine on MAC. Port to port, also with Loopback (expensive virtual audio card). But not with (free) Soundflower...

*UPDATE*

Strange. When I set Soundflower to 192 khz it seems to work. Lower = Hangup

Windows 32 bit:
Windows stand alone: http://www.stereotool.com/download/ster ... 25-014.exe
Winamp DSP: http://www.stereotool.com/download/dsp_ ... 25-014.exe
VST: http://www.stereotool.com/download/vst_ ... 25-014.dll

Windows 64 bit:
Windows stand alone: http://www.stereotool.com/download/ster ... 25-014.exe
VST: http://www.stereotool.com/download/vst_ ... 25-014.dll

Linux:
32 bit stand alone: http://www.stereotool.com/download/ster ... ETA825-014
64 bit stand alone: http://www.stereotool.com/download/ster ... ETA825-014

CHANGES:
- Linux and Raspberry versions: Now linking PortAudio statically.
- Make PortAudio work properly on Linux - it works but with weird warnings and it takes a long time to start. -> Fixed by removing sample rate check on startup. --> Appears to be a PortAudio ALSA backend issue!!! For now, keep the Jack version as well.
- Allow Linux version no GUI to run on Raspberry Pi without X11. (Hm, Windows version probably too - already basically there for service). - TODO: Test if it really works
- Fixed: Raspberry Pi version: AGC, Multiband 1 & 2 and some other filters can cause dropsouts
- - Fixed: Raspberry Pi version: Clipper can cause silence
- Fixed: All versions: Using Composite Clipper with Strictness 1 or 2 + Hard Limit can cause weird drops in the audio. Fixed, Hard Limit works different from before now! (and sounds better! Hint: Use this same trick for all limiters!!!!!!)

OLD CHANGES:
- PortAudio linked statically on Mac
- GiPHouse build warnings
- PortAudio weird jumps in buffer filling and glitches
- Put all PortAudio calls in 1 thread - was needed for WASAPI
- Made PortAudio work on Mac - weird hack needed (?)
- Synchronize PortAudio input and output starts
- Make sure that in case of no input audio, the error is reported for the input. Added the watchdog tick to be always called when the callback is called, even if no audio is being played.
- Make buffer filling 50% on start - Wait for first input to return. Only then allow outputs. Also needed for VLC (so the delay can be big!) In fact, the best way might be to connect it to when the first callback of the input sound card happens... enable the other callbacks INSIDE that input callback. But if I do that I need special solutions for VLC and ASIO. And that won't take the calculation time into account, and it might actually be a good thing to take that into account to make the buffer at least not too empty.
- Updated PortAudio to latest version
- Added FM/HD synchronziation slider. You will hear glitches when adjusting it, but no complete dropouts as with changing the buffer size.
- Changed PortAudio callback block size to let PortAudio decide the best size. This might slightly reduce latency and also help against hiccups.
- Added display of supported sample rates (and MME) to sound card selection.
- SST help
- Delossifier Spectral hole filler CPU load is much higher in 8.23 than in 8.00 - no obvious change in the code. - Wasn't true, slightly optimized it anyway.
- Removed old WINMM audio card code, replaced by PortAudio.

TODO:
- Raspberry Pi version: Stokkemask causes silence.
- Hard Limit: Check report of overshoots - Solved, at least for any logical situations
- Fixed daylight saving time bug introduced in 8.23.
- PFFFT resampler!!! YEAH! 20% CPU load reduction on the Pi :)
- Add real PEQ
- Generic plugin in debug mode shows PEQ too often assert, why?
- Add PEQ low/high shelves
- In the AM configuration When we use Asymmetry, the output markers show the red color all the time even if with fm transmitter it continues to generate pilot tone at the AM output. As you can see in the attached figure. Thank you for your attention .... -> Fixed pilot issue, restored Headroom slider.
- It appears when RDS RT Text is sent to StereoTool and it contains a “/” that ST separates it into two messages. Is this how you intended it to work? PS Text doesn’t appear to be affected. -> Fixed (but PS should also have been affected, odd).
- The DSP-Plugin still works correct. But somehow some trial features are activated when i am using the commandlinetool. What you have to know is this, that i am also totaly blind so i cant use the interface for configuring. I allways thought that the commandlineversion uses the DSP_Stereo_Tool.ini created by the winamp-plugin to set the different options. I think something changed cause i am getting the message that the program cant find or cant read the dsp_stereo_tool settings in the user-folder. So the stereotool_cmd.exe uses some settings wich are not completely available in the free Version. So i am getting this two beeps every minute. -> Oops, it was accidentally using the .ini file without .ini at the end... so not the Winamp settings file (which is the default).
- Put PEQ in SST interface
- Fixed bug in Bypass code that might have caused all kinds of weird things.
- Add WASAPI mode that uses exclusive sound card control to set sample rate. Possibly also lower latency (based on what I read it should be possible to get close to ASIO latency - thread priority must be set too in that case, both with a flag and a value).
- Limiters: Make same change as in Hard Limit (from l + l * .01 to l + .01).
- Compare Stokkemask vs Multipath Clipper
- Maybe support ISO 226 curves for AGC and other side chains instead of ITU1770? See http://www.sengpielaudio.com/Acoustics226-2003.pdf ; curves look similar to the "old" curves but less to the new ones.
- Send out RDS texts
- Fix 31N
- Show low input level warning for inputs below - say - around -9 dB or so. For extended periods. Reason; I hear on a local station here that they probably have a too low input level and they didn;'t know that that was a problemn, but the sound on one of the built-in presets wasn't as consistent as it should be, and some tracks sound muffled probably due to too much noise gating.
