Post subject:  Stereo Tool 9.12 BETA

Downloads
Changes/bugfixes
  • Pi build fails
  • Add "^2" mode to pre-bass clipper. Different shape, has less effect on higher frequencies.
  • Update Wes' preset

TODO's
  • (Since beta 3) Add a popup for buffer overrun/underrun (also for suspicion)
  • (Since beta 3) Add MagicRDS AF method B support
  • (Since beta 3) Automate generating MicroMPX licenses

  • (Since beta 3) Brian (NAB)
  • (Since beta 3) Cntrct IN

  • (Since beta 3) Finish Kantar tests and integration
  • (Since beta 3) Linux multiple instances
  • (Since beta 3) Linux-version MicroMPX integration in ST.
  • (Since beta 3) Matrix stereo widener BUSY, problem with suddenly loud stereo (goes down in level, makes everything pump - badly). Try running L+R with a slower attack speed, if that doesn't sound good, remove it.
  • (Since beta 3) Noise in declipper issue
  • (Since beta 3) Pi 64 bit builds on the site
  • (Since beta 3) RDS: EON: Support for other type of AF frequencies?

  • (Since beta 4) MicroMPX: Add manual (how to setup)
  • (Since beta 5) 1024x600 screen misses VU meters
  • (Since beta 14) Can you please check Pre-Limiter used with Normal limit making some strange effect with thresh under 3-4dB at 64 bands or less.
  • (Since beta 10) Check new installer script
  • (Since beta 15) Clearer split between normal and advanced RDS features
  • (Since beta 15) Declipper cleanup L-R phase artifacts, maybe also width.
  • (Since beta 21) "Relative adjustment" too low warning
  • (Since beta 23) Check what to do with highs (Bojcha) - maybe next year? Dynamic highs clipping level might work. -> Waiting if needed first, maybe now.
  • (Since beta 24) Speed up start of attack/release? Compare new values with what we're doing, and increase them if the difference is big.
  • (Since beta 24) Fix Basstardizer which broke in 9.20
  • (Since beta 24) Check highs 5 kHz issue in clipper (?)

Changes/bugfixes
  • Add 2-stage bass clipper in advanced clipper
  • Maybe add 3rd stage to Advanced Clipper? Done, Extreme Tweaker mode and experimental only for now.

  • Hide AVX setting
  • Update Dutch Chocolate Moose preset
  • Update Cerulean preset
  • WatchCat on Mac doesn't work -> Installer issue, check before releasing

Downloads
Changes/bugfixes
  • Immersive Bass HPF output not working correctly
  • Immersive Bass HPF input for cleaner sound ?
    Difficult to do, doesn't appear to do a lot anyway.
  • Change Advanced Clipper for cleaner voices (less IMD). Very slightly higher CPU load.

Downloads
Changes/bugfixes
  • Is VST3 ok in vMIX after the latest build? - Should be, works here, and code is more logical.
  • Immersive bass: Removed protection to not add too much again. It didn't have much effect, caused artifacts, and different compressor settings can give a very similar effect.
  • Remove MicroMPX startup logging in Stereo Tool/SST if not running, and put log file in user directory.
  • Linux MicroMPX version (32 bit)
  • Linux MicroMPX version (64 bit)

No downloads available.

Changes/bugfixes
  • Immersive bass: Protection to not add it if it's already there removed too much, now it's a slider.
    Value 1 = same as BETA012, value 10 = same as BETA011. Good range seems to be around 2-3.
    More testing needed.
  • Remove library MicroMPX startup logging
  • Linux MicroMPX version (32 bit)

Downloads
Changes/bugfixes
  • What does the new Immersive Bass display show? Either remove it, or add it to bottom display as well.
  • Immersive bass: Added protection to not add it if it's already there (can be defeated, for now, for testing).
  • Updated Paul Thompson's Breaking Dreams Loud preset - now uses Immersive Bass.

    update name to Immersive Bass, updated presets.

    Pre-allocate enough memory once.

All text in gui aligned to left on meters and boxes with some errors at brightness 93. Not all skins.

Method B through UECP doesn't work.
However - method B works in ST, but I don't think that it works right.

I haven't tested method B via UECP yet so that's very well possible.

But, what's wrong with normal AF method B?

Hans, I got too many duplicated frequencies in pira's RDS spy.
Will have to check it out once more.

Streaming AAC-HE using VLC input causes the GUI to stop/start/stop/start every ~300ms
The audio keeps playing fine.

For example, put this in as a stream source: http://radio.muppetz.com:5001/brianfm64

An MP3 stream (http://radio.muppetz.com:5001/brianfm) doesn't exhibit this.

Ah, that purely depends on how the stream comes in. If that's in bursts, then everything (including the GUI) will be updated in bursts.
