Mac version is impossible to test due to a 404
Have FUN
MrDonT
Apparently the files didn't get copied from the Mac to my pc which uploads everything. And the files for the 002 beta are already gone from it, I have built version 004 but I need to have physical access to the Mac to be able to sign them and create the installers. So, I'll have to check it tomorrow.

ok, i am still playing with this new highs filtering, beside that i touched probably every filter around it.
Discovered few things. Like "Highs Priority". That thing literaly kills bass even at 0.2% settings.
0.2 dB I assume, for the setting under Distortion?

Also i discovered that Composite almost not working for constant tones when RDS is disabled, and pilot ON. With RDS OFF, for example, 10kHz sine tone is down by 4%! (around 91% demodulated) with RDS it's 94%, However that is with "allow L-R asymmetry" at 3%, wich again i discovered is more than enough.
Composite clipping does nothing or nearly nothing for constant tones. That's to be expected. It only works for noise-like sounds. To a lesser extent that also applies to L-R Asymmetry. So, don't test this with tones.

Back to highs, depending on how hard clipper is used, everything act differently. Sometimes mids are priority sometimes highs (mostly) and bass almost never. To make it work "for everything" every of those sliders need to be exactly tuned. Still cant make bass fully in line with mids for some reason.
I haven't touched everything, and there are settings that can somewhat control this (for example there's a setting that gives mids more priority). In general, the harder you start clipping the more effect everything gets, but the loudest frequencies will be affected most. The loudest frequencies are usually bass (because they are just loud) and highs (due to pre-emphasis).

Im little confused also about this "Leif's gap.." I feel that whole that filter should do all protections, however some stuff are missing but it still try to do that. There is Bass protection but no concrete clipper for that, or does not run any other filter that will tell bass what to do. We already have that in ABDP, and that's the reason why i said that Leif's gap bass protection can be OFF.
True, but ABDP more generally limits bass below a specific level. Leif's gap bass protection kills bass when it affects (and if it does, would easily cause IMD) the highs. Having said that, I would suggest a frequency of 40 or at most 50 Hz there. Or maybe indeed turn it off completely.

What in clipper is pushing bass down from around 220Hz and down, and why? Beside this "highs priority" thingy.. there is something more.
I assume this is with ABDP on? It could be several things, I need to look into it.

De-esser, can't turn it OFF, only to make it out of thresh, please make on/off button so it can be turned OFF.. completely. Even out of thresh i'm not sure is it 'still' do something.
Check. Internally it's turned off at the highest setting, but that's not visible in the GUI.

Mind blown. I just checked out this retro DAW and man, I wish I had found Cool Edit 20 years ago. I'm practically just now developing a taste for audio and this could have put me on track to learning so much earlier. Nice to see that's what the screenshots of analysis stuff used in the documentation are from as well. I had always assumed it was some internal tool.
