Stereo Tool

Found a skin bug..switching between --standard bochja--bochja blue--mpex and back leaves ND with blue meters.

Also bochja's blue meters, is only mb in blue?

I use default skin with just one file changed and that's MB color.

If you wish, here it is.. Just put it in ST folder.

BETA 761-051

Windows 32 bit:
Windows stand alone: http://www.stereotool.com/download/ster ... 61-051.exe
Winamp DSP: http://www.stereotool.com/download/dsp_ ... 61-051.exe
VST 32bit: http://www.stereotool.com/download/vst_ ... 61-051.dll

CHANGES:
- Old ("Classic") singleband compressor is broken - fix -> woops, there was some test code for the new compressor in it
- Added and updated more presets, waiting for feedback

OLD CHANGES:
- Crash reported by Peter Kluyver - Not enough information. Occurred in 761-035, crash in ntdll.dll at 0x5b72E (exception 0xC0000005), not handled by Stereo Tool. No streaming via VLC used.
- Added second Multiband Compressor
- Added new Dequantizer filter to increase the bit depth of recordings.
- Added resampler for normal output to fix 2 output on different sound cards problem (for example FM on sound card and streaming via VAC/VB Cable).
- Added auto-restart behavior if buffers get too full or too empty.
- Added upto 10 seconds of audio delay for HD radio.
- Added support for built-in GUI skins
- Added option to show beta version number in title bar
- RDS: Added RT+ support.
- RDS: Fixed time zone 30 minute offset problem - viewtopic.php?f=6&t=5941&p=28209#p28209
- GUI: Improved display for bigger screens.
- GUI: Increased maximum waveform display from 3.2 to 5 seconds.
- GUI: Made line around Phase Delay in bottom display less bright.
- GUI: Bug fix: Composite clipper used but not registered warning wasn't shown.
- GUI: Save settings .ini when saving the settings to any file.

- GUI: Improved Compressors gate and limiter display (new Analog mode only).
- Singleband Compressors: Don't allow Threshold values below 0.5 dB
- Compressors: Made a new Compressor implementation ('Analog'), based on the behavior of water pressure control systems and hydraulic automatically closing doors. Sounds better and uses far less CPU load.
- Compressors: Made new Limiter (only used in combination with new compressor mode).
- After-AGC Singleband Compressor: Added new Analog compressor mode with new limiter.
- Final Singleband Compressor: Added new Analog compressor mode with new limiter.
- Multiband Compressor: Added new Analog compressor mode with new limiter.

- Multiband Compressor: Added Freeze/Gate for all bands combined (Analog mode only).
- Multiband Compressor: Fix frequency band shift (10%, since 7.51 or 7.60).
- Multiband Compressor: Fixed a filtering issue when using Density Drive > 1.00
- Improved CPU performance a bit, on multiple places (clipper, GUI).
- Small performance optimizations.
- Optimized synchronization between sound cards code - factor 5 CPU load reduction.
- Multipath Clipper: Made it stricter (use Smoothing mode)
- Bug fix: Saving FM sound card issue in VST: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6027&p=29066#p29066
- Bug fix: Compressors: When gate is set to -99 dB, release stops working.
- Bug fix: GUI: Threshold and knee were labeled 'Speeds' instead of 'Levels'.
- Fixed 'uninitialized memory read' warnings (reported by Intel Inspector XE).(
- ProppFrexx integration: Added RDS control via VST (canDo, vendorSpecific)

WAITING FOR FEEDBACK 7.70:
- Wait for Matt Aaron's feedback about HD synchronization

TO DO 7.70:
- Make Limit before Compress switchable in old compressor as well
- Fix Linux 32 bit version for Ubuntu 13/14
- New Limiter is broken in low quality mode (clearest in 3rd Niki Vachav preset)
- Wait for Diggy Down FM (TURN DECLIPPER ON!) and Jesse Graffam's final streaming/AM/FM presets; answer from Nikolay Vachev; include Uptown FM preset, Sjoerd Wijdogen
- Add/update presets
- Adjust Simple preset levels and FM BS412 levels
- Wait for feedback on which presets to keep/remove/reorganize
- Check RDS time zone issue - apparently still not ok in Brazilian time zone
- Release

TO DO 7.71:
- Change default preset (it still uses Classic compressor etc!)
- EQ with 'standard' sliders.
- Make BS412-like graph for levels
- Memory leak in Generic plugin (reported by Franciszek)

TO DO WITH LEIF:
- Clipper issues Leif / Wolf Stahl (probably the same thing)
- Stokkemask: try if I can move the data a few samples to make 2nd smoothing step unnecessary.


How to use RT+ in RadioText
Put \+xx before and \- after an item
where xx is an RT+ type number (00-63).

Instead of a number you can also use the codes
WW or UR for an URL (type 29)
AR for Artist (type 04)
TI for Title (type 01)

So for example:
Now playing \+ArMadonna\- - \+TiLike a Virgin\-

You can use at most 2 codes. For now, codes are transmitted for ALL the texts, so this only works properly if you have a static RT text. I might change that later.

RT+ works really well now. I've not had a chance to interface it with my s/pdif to aes yet but when i get that done I'll let you know. That would be digital all the way to my TX which should improve sound quality extremely. Right now i inject as MPX at my omnia to TX MPX.

Hans,

Is it possible to get an Linux version of the betaversion?

I'm looking into that now - there's a weird bug in the latest Linux versions that shows up on Ubuntu 13 and 14 (segmentation fault in the version with GUI) which I want to fix first. Oddly, in older Ubuntu versions it works fine, and the debug version works fine in all versions, so it might be a compiler optimization issue.

I can try the debug version. Running ubuntu 14.10.

I haven't tried on Linux but on Windows the debug version is about 10-20 times slower than the release. So, you need a really fast pc to be able to run it in real-time.

Anyway, I'm installing a new compiler on Linux now, as this appears to be a compiler optimization bug, I will know more soon...

I'm waiting for the new version no longer come here, I was constipated
