Stereo Tool

Not an expert, but yeah this time I didn't hear differences.

I do have lots of station recordings from my SDR. I can share a LOT.
Example of Hip hop: https://youtu.be/Id1uJu2qi8g
(Ignore the desktop with lots of icons... VERY OLD recording).
I've been hesitant to share stuff like that due to the "every audio processor is different" and Yes, we aren't looking for the exact sound of every "iHeartRadio station" but a less "wimpy"
I agree as well. Though, yeah I don't wanna pressure him too much...

BETA101 is posted! Biggest change is that the sudden drop behavior is completely different; the old behavior responded with a delay and could then seem to suddenly increase the level. The new behavior responds quickly at the start and then fades out.

For those complaining about a "wimpy" sound specifically on FM: Please try if what you hear disappears if you disable "Advanced Bass Distortion Protection". That will make the whole sound a lot more punchy. With the old compressor, there wasn't enough control of the bass to run without this - well you can, but it causes a lot of intermodulation distotion - the bass causes havoc in the mids and highs. I haven't tried, but the new compressor has much better control of the levels, so it might be possible to disable it if you carefully tweak the Intellilimiter. I'm planning to have another look at the clipper later - we first need to finish the new compressor.

But please confirm if this is what you're hearing. If you turn Advanced Bass Distortion Protection off, is the "wimpy" sound gone? If so I know what I need to look at. ABDP is definitely in need of a redesign, so I hope this is it.

Interesting. Where would I find this? Is it FM only? The description makes me think of the Bass Intermodulation Distortion Protection in the advanced clipper; is this it? I remember when this was introduced. The random bass knocking would wake me up without it.

The new MB (Adaptive) has broken feature. Peak mode(Detection panel), it brokes the levels and lead to bad audio. Something is not OK there.

Yes, that's it. Without it, there used to be a lot of IMD. But it might not be needed so much anymore now. It most definitely affects the punchiness of the sound.

Gotcha. ABDP is referenced elsewhere in the UI instead of BIMDP (clipper pre-limiter for example). I don't know which I like more, but the "intermodulation distortion" term is more descriptive. Regardless, these references should probably be named the same as the module feature. Gonna run this for a while with the protection off and see how it goes. I no longer use the Buttkickers (haptic bass transducers attached to my chair) so I don't know how loud it would be now anyway if it did happen.

However, I do notice the bass being much richer with it off! I will have to reduce some other bass settings based on this new clarity.

Best i can, with missing small tunings here and there.
Many strange things, some even bugged, but most obvious one, as i said, is how it decides do fasten my releases on it's own in some cases for no reason no metter how slow i put them. I just cant trust it what will it do with my next track. It's around -10/-11 lufs (with this MB you never know) - beta101/ Q150%/Sane max/ 4096

edit:
I apparently used wrong crossovers, also by my mistake i used "flat tops" wich are bad for limiters (1st band especially). Just maded new crossover. will update.

-- updated.

I was talking about non-FM personality. Am not sure about other peoples.

If I have Intellilimiter on 6db (because I cannot go lower) and a 2-millisecond attack, the bass will output super high to the rest of the chain which results in it sounding terrible with "advanced bass distortion protection off".

I found that switching to a preset changes the action of the multiband compressor. It also afterward doesn't allow me to change the "compressor type"

My head hurts. My ears are broken. is there a thing like an audiologist for compression?

It sounds pushed down and not open like in the water. ;(

Look here is my preset. What is wrong with it

Apparently your CPU is BAD.
Just kidding, ofc not.
What happens when you load my preset? I also seems to have BAD cpu, so we are matched. Load only repair and processing.
