This is by far my favorite adaptive preset (got it a while ago so im on 2.0). I'm listening a lot of music on it lately and I'm super impressed with what you got there! Just wanted to hop in and say good job mate!

So since many of you agree that V2.0 is the best so far i decided an update based on v2.0.
Many thanks for the nice comments. So what is changed in V.2.3

-Lower AGC input to keep loudness balance between processing sections
-Output is set to -7 lufs
-Slightly denser compression settings in mb section
-More crisp but controllable (i hope :D ) high frequencies
-More flat responce in midrange section

Remember to keep output around 80% of max level on your playback software.

Hope you like it.Always nice to have your comments and feedback

I have returned to Version 2.0. Some of these changes resulted in a slightly darker sound.

I was wrong, though. Just based on one song it seemed to me that the sound on 2.3 was somewhat darker.

Hi just finished a new preset using st 10.30 new clipper.
Also made some tweaks to AGC and mb compressor (Adaptive)
The first impression is that sound is denser and more detailed
I also tweaked the eq to add more high end sparkle and louder mids for testing purposes.
Let me know about your feedback on this one.Always good to have your comments
and recommendations ;)

I have not tried tyour presets yet.

I am using the basic version of ST 10

Does your preset involve features that are not included in the BASIC (no addons) ?

Also, what you think of the sound https://onlineradiobox.com/us/bfm/?cs=us.bfm&played=1
so far? I took some preset that sounded to me ok in terms of Host voices + music. All seems quite balanced
But AGC does not whow activity at all. The input is to the top... drive +8 Do not know :(

thx

I attached my preset, so far all within my basic license (no red warnings). Perhaps you could suggest something. Many thanks in advance.

Hi. Regarding my V 2 presets they are using adaptive settings in mb,wb compressor & agc section used from st 10.21 an onwards and i assume thats why the agc is not working.
Imho the +8 drive in input is too agressive and it might cause distortion during processing.i would recommend 0 gain in st input and about 80% volume on source player and let agc do the rest.

I have listened to the stream you mentioned and it sounds loud and balanced,some audio artifacts though but i can't understand if there is something to do with proceeding or the music source material.

If you wish to listen my older presets there is a thread https://www.forums.stereotool.com/viewt ... 10&t=33695 for older st versions (v9.92 &10.10) I also have https://zeno.fm/radio/ianthos-radio/ stream where i test the latest (currently v2.5 beta in st 10.30)

Hi. Thanks for your reply.
I turned off STEREO and PHASE sections (especially phase) it was creating some weird something that made sound like a bad mp3. I don't know when you took a stab at my stream. I hope you listened BEFORE i made these adjustments. It does sound loud. I am sure bringing the level down is not what needs to be done as it is already -1 db. Must be done by compressors and other modules.

AGC is not moving probably because I did not crank it up somewhere... my version is 10.30 and AGC is at its default settings, but evidently I need to change them to make it pump. But that would make it even louder. I hear that it is quite balanced as is. but my ears do not hear objectively already. :)

AGC starts to show activity on the meters when I move target to -10 instead of +4 (default) and drive remained +8 now I see some movements :)
