Stereo Tool

Just Reset and turn on loudness... after x2.20 start working again.

Found it - fix coming up later.

Fix is online. Loudness should work always again.

I've also improved the handling of loud "s" sounds in the low latency version.

I have rewritten some parts of the code to avoid "this filter is not working if that setting is turned on/off" problems that occurred several times lately.

As an added bonus, the new code reduces the amount of memory that is used, and tries to use memory that's already in the CPU cache. This should (very very slightly) improve the performance...

Tomorrow I'll reduce the memory usage further.

Updated version is online, there is NO difference AT ALL in the output sound.

Hi Hans,
Yes, Loudness is working again ..
huh.. This lowlatency mode working good.

in what stage will be solved "Avoid Distortion" in Final Limiter?

edit:
in Normal mode PreLimiter meter act like in lowlatency mode .. (?) not slow as erlier.

I've just fixed it ("reduced CPU usage" as well) and will post it here later tonight.

Remaining todo's:

- Fix highpass filter (which sounds horrible at the moment) ■
- Maybe (is this needed?) fix Improved loudness distortion protection, Very deep bass distortion protection and Deep bass boost in Low Latency mode. (Will increase the CPU load...). But: The distortion seems to be gone already, with these filters turned off... So I think they're not needed in Low Latency mode. (If you have any examples where it IS needed, please let me know).
- Make the CPU load configurable (more steps than just Low/Mid/High, and enable choosing between 'out of tune' bass and a rumbling bass sound. ■ PARTIALLY DONE
- Make the latency configurable (add an extra low and an in-between value: Extremely Low Latency (9 ms, probably less if Loudness is turned off), Very Low Latency (17 ms), Low Latency (34 ms), Normal Latency (68 ms). And allow lowering the latency further at the cost of increasing the CPU load. ■ PARTIALLY DONE
- Fix the output level indicators (many of them display garbage). ■
- Remove 2nd input channel in Stand Alone version. ■ (not yet uploaded)

Did I miss anything?


*Edit*: I just noticed that I had previously converted the deep bass protection etc. filters to low latency versions that DON'T use more CPU load. I think that (with a bit of effort) I can re-use those for the current version as well...

Version with fixed "Avoid distortion..." is online now.

And 192kHz on input now works again ..

but
default 4.22


beta3


that is normal mode (hi) with fm overdrive 101%

It turned out to be a lot more complex than I had expected, but I just managed to get the highpass filter working with no extra latency.

New version will be uploaded in about an hour. CPU load should also be a bit lower.

Uploaded!
