I don't see an M43 listed in https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.php , is that really the exact model number?
Yes that's what windows lists it as, it's quite possibly this one? https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_lookup ... GHz&id=775

InPhase, not too sure who you are, Im guessing. The BCL406 are equipped with a blast furnace CPU (i7 4Ghz). I truly cannot see you even coming close to using even 40% of the available processing power for ST with everything turned flatout.

There are ways to back off the CPU use gentle without too much of a impact. However, as more features in ST come into play, then unfortunately you do need several cores and importantly, plain old clock grunt to get around and perform the mathematics thats been requested by the application.

Glenn @ CoastFM 96.3, thought you would've known from my previous shared settings posts?

That's good to know about the BCL406, because I'm going to push it hard as more of these good features come online.

Hey Glenn, thought so.

Just checked what I think is your CPU at home and its specs are not too flash. Only rates in around 2104 and is primarily due to its low clock speed. I have found that you need at least 2.6Ghz to run all 8.00 features, and now with the new AGC & Auto EQ, you may need more. Will need to test but Im away this week in PNG on another job.

Hopefully this answers your question on the home CPU.

I got everything working beautifully again.
I put the windows version of Winamp on my Macbook Pro, which has heaps more cpu power, using Winebottler & finished off my new preset build that I'll post up soon.
The other computer is oldish, but still does what's needed (except processing ST now), so I'll do all my ST builds at home on the mac now.

I'm happy again & the beta 053 is working very well & sounding great.

- SC ACP: Speeds should not affect it!

How about a Linux version to test before you release this?

8.51 BETA001

Turns out that, due to a bug in Microsofts latest Visual Studio, version 8.50 does NOT function properly in Windows XP! I have a new build that fixes that, and also reduces the memory usage a bit. I will run a release build as soon as the new MicroMPX is ready.

Windows 32 bit:
Windows stand alone: https://www.stereotool.com/download/ste ... 51-001.exe
Winamp DSP: https://www.stereotool.com/download/dsp ... 51-001.exe
VST: https://www.stereotool.com/download/vst ... 51-001.dll

Windows 64 bit:
Windows stand alone: https://www.stereotool.com/download/ste ... 51-001.exe
VST: https://www.stereotool.com/download/vst ... 51-001.dll

CHANGES:
- Reduced memory usage by calculating fewer window shapes
- XP build fix

SST/MicroMPX:
- MicroMPX web interface version: Make sure that all ranges are correct and everything is stable when changing settings. -> Mathijs & Matthijs - sent
- MicroMPX sample rate bug
