Changes:
- Add presets, waiting for Thorium6 update/web version, and need to set correct levels (generic presets, BS412)
- Change version number to 7.42

Old Changes:
- Maybe change band 2 band shape (feedback Bojcha) -> apparently not
- Optimize new MB flat (1 FFT instead of 9) - DONE
- Old Flatness slider must be disabled when 'Flat tops' is enabled; other checkbox right to 'Flat tops' might be removed again. - DONE
- Fix Perfect Declipper keyboard input so I can also release a new declipper version
- Check performance DONE, difference is less than 1%
- Added a lot of new presets.
- Fixed the compressor Knee bug in 015.
- Added the first few new presets, and removed a bunch of others
- Lots of small issues that might cause problems on different systems/plugin hosts etc. resolved: Rounding error in compressors.
- Added 'Flat tops' in Multiband Compressor and Natural Dynamics, with different band contents and improved crossover/flat output behavior.
- Added experimental DeLossifier (MP3 artifacts removal filter). So far it only reduces pre-ringing a bit.
- AM support doesn't work properly: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5512&p=24635#p24635 FIXED
- Linux version crashed - FIXED
- Crash in 64 bit VST plugin in compressor - SHOULD BE FIXED NOW
- Hangup with Marian Windows 7 driver: WORKAROUND AVAILABLE
- Added Marian sound card driver hangup workaround
- Added locking to MM audio I/O code to protect buffers
- Declipper behavior at extremely low latencies (256 samples or less) improved
- AM Assymmetry in combination with FM pre-emphasis enabled again
- Deemphasized audio didn't work properly under all circumstances in 7.41, fixed again.
- Code improvement: Potential rounding error in compressor (which could lead to all kinds of issues) fixed
- Code improvement: Initializing some values that were never initialized before
- Code improvement: Several 'Division by 0' situations (which were masked so they didn't cause problems) are now completely removed

TODO:
- Release
- Hangup with Marian Windows 7 driver: attempt to pinpoint the cause together with Marian.
- Dotted area in ASIO input buffer (GUI only) TO BE FIXED

Just a small notification that ALL the versions are available now in the above post: Windows, Mac, Linux, 32 and 64 bit, and declipper.

Congratulations on the 7.42 release, Hans! Thanks a lot.

agree!

one more Happy Release thumbs up

I have just automated most of the build behavior (until now I had to manually copy the code to multiple virtual machines to build Linux, Mac and Windows 64 bit versions). So, from now on releasing will be simpler

Cool

Am i right that in Calibration , the options "Test SSB lower" and "Test SSB higher" act with the same result as Test Right silence ? Also all three options result the same display behavour/waveform ? (output oscilloscope)
I think something is wrong there.

Hans, in 7.42 b18, is it normal with Power Bass and Power Highs when you click on Difference; Power Bass and Power High Difference Output is combined?
The result is a very weird acting output.

Yes, to fix that I would have to make some changes to the code. Best way to test at this point is by turning either Power Bass or Power Highs off (the one that you don't want to hear).
