Stereo Tool

Installed the beta but seem to have problems getting ST to pass audio.

In ASIO mode, buffer looks like it fills then empties.

Turning off ASIO, I get an error! (Red block)

Hmm...

For ASIO mode: And the latest release (7.23) works fine with the same settings? If so, could you send me your settings file?

For non-ASIO mode: Does it work correctly with version 7.23?

I have tested the non-ASIO version on several systems, on one I get red bars as well - but that's also the case with the previous release (basically I cannot open both input and output, but I can open one of the two).

ASIO works fine here - are you using FM output with a sample rate below 176400? Because then it will act weird. (But I think it always has - will check that to make sure)

Linux versions, now with multi-threading support! (Turns out that it didn't work until now...)
Normal command line version: http://www.stereotool.com/download/ster ... ETA724-011
GUI version: http://www.stereotool.com/download/ster ... ETA724-011
HINT: Save them and then chmod to 755 or something similar!

Windows command line version with multi-threading: http://www.stereotool.com/download/ster ... 24-011.exe

Just compared old and new versions here, and at sample rate 44.1 both seem pretty much identical, however if I increase it to 176.4 kHz, the old version has a CPU load of 8% and the new one of 35%. Which probably explains why the buffers are emptying.

Will check asio later, but starting standalone with bypass on still gives no sound.

O true I didn't look at that yet.

I just fixed pasting and (partially) copying behavior in the input fields. Both in Windows and Linux.

TODO list:
- Fix ASIO higher CPU load and weird buffer behavior at high sample rates
- Fix Bypass mode
- Add Linux sound card support (maybe later).
- Red in non-ASIO mode (but: Is that new?)
- Test a lot of things (does changing buffer size / sample rate / ... cause a restart?)

Do the red bars show an error message? (Not in the bottom of the screen - no space there - but in the sections where you can configure the inputs and outputs).

Also: Are both input and output red? And are they not in the old version (7.23)? And what sound card do you have?

I don't know if this solves anything, but there was an error in the ASIO block size calculation in previous versions that's now fixed:

The machine I used is in service at the moment so can't check right now...

I think I installed the beta over 7.22 (SA). ST is running 192 kHz, card is a Trace 8.

At the time I was testing with a pipeline input and ASIO / non ASIO output on the Trace 8.

ASIO buffer looked like it wouldn't stay full. (Maybe as you suggest, it was CPU related?)

When trying the non ASIO output I got a message saying something like, "can't output at 192 kHz" or similar.
