I was in the web interface, trying to make sure it was enabled before saving the preset. I could not find "Web Interface" in the menu though. I only can find the following in the web menu under Configuration.

License
Resource usage
Scheduler

Is it maybe under a different part of the menu, or some other setting I need to change before the whole menu shows? And when saving the preset what should I save (I/O, Configuration, Processing, Repair or Broadcasting) to make sure the web interface stays on?
And that brings me to another suggestion, the preset files always save with a timestamp in the name. There should also be an update button to update the current preset Stereo Tool started from with the same filename.

The Web Interface configuration is in the Configuration panel, but it doesn't show if using the Web Interface. I believe this is by design, so you don't accidentally overwrite your web settings and lock yourself out.

When saving (from the web interface or native gui), make sure to expand Configuration to find the Web Interface selector, and make sure it's checked.

Just a quick Q: At the AM section, when it`s enabled, the AM is stereo by default? Cause i see an option "downmix to mono"!?
What is the output for AM, the HD one?

BETA058 is posted. We've slightly changed the Adaptive Compressor's Peak mode behavior on very loud bursts; I think that the new behavior is *always* better. If you run into issues, you can try if "Peak (legacy)" mode fixes those. If we don't get any any complaints, the next build won't have "Peak (legacy)" anymore.

One person reported an issue with hiccups in Kernel Streaming mode for a specific sound card which didn't occur in version 10.30 and earlier; if you have that same issue, there's a BETA058A build that might fix it. You can manually change the download links to add the A. We suspect a code change in the I/O library that we use (PortAudio), which we updated in version 10.40, and that appears to be the moment when the issue surfaced. Please let us know if you encountered this since version 10.40, and if 058A fixes it again.

Normally it's the FM output. Depending on settings and where you are (whether you need the NRSC mask), the HD out can also be usable.

I guess it's a bit silly but indeed without that downmix option, both channels aren't identical......

Hi, I don't understand what you mean.

BETA059 is posted! I think everything is ready for the next release; let us know if you have any issues with this version.

So, we have AM stereo encoder? Like FM stereo encoder?

No. But you can feed stereo AM to a stereo AM transmitter. AM stereo encoding in Stereo Tool isn't possible in the way it works for FM (I checked).
