Not sure. Other VSTs are opening in different size of window . So i think VST version may be i can "tell" it to be on some bigger size , let`s say from sts file ?
if possible
the VST loading module cannot be resized itself. It size the plugins in some way that i don`t know. That is why i ask for solution on sts file may be , if exists.
Or may be an option for full screen on VST will be useful too. Like DSP from some versions ago have it.

Some P.S: why VST consumes more Cpu than other versions? like 5-7% more

Using 7.22...should all 4 cores be operating? Looking at the Performance Tab on Task Manager, Cores 1 and 3 are around 90-95% but 2 and 4 are peaking in the 20-30% range. "Total" CPU usage is 51-59%. Running the new clipper at 12 Strictness...going to 20 causes stuttering. Would love to share the love equally across all 4 cores.

From experience ST is designed to utilize just two of four cores??? Runs best on a quad core...and needs cache size on newer processors to use all the latest features.

I end up with cores 1 and 3 about 28% and cores 2 & 4 at about 5 to 9.

Using an i7. Total cpu about 23% as i recall. Running top quality cpu and strictness.

Most of the filters can only work on 2 cores - 1 per channel.
The composite clipper could be rewritten to use 4 cores - until now I thought it wasn't really useful because all quad cores are probably fast enough, but apparently that's not the case.. And it will have some (probably close to negligible) effect on the audio - I need to split the audio into parts and merge them together at the end.

New Stokkemask clipper output with test tones.

For normal audio I do measure some small overshoots, but that's probably ok - the smoothing used in the Stokkemask specification should remove those - in fact, even without the Stokkemask clipper overshoots are pretty rare due to that. I have not implemented this smoothing in my analyzer. Also the analysis filter shape isn't perfect - it seems to be a bit too wide at the top, which may also cause the display of small overshoots that really aren't there.
