Stand alone: http://www.stereotool.com/download/ster ... 33-029.exe Winamp DSP: http://www.stereotool.com/download/dsp_ ... 33-029.exe VST: http://www.stereotool.com/download/vst_ ... 33-029.dll Done: - Optimize text display code (place_zoomed_text_new, using LUT, similar to scopes) - Fix button click behavior (button must be deactivated, focus must be restored when closing registration window) - Vertical volume bar showed 32 dB instead of 30 - Too big spaces removed - 2 rows visible at height 768 - Left menu changed; separated Configuration from Processing and moved both to top level. Question: Should I move Configuration to the bottom?? Or even move the one that's not active to the bottom? - Left menu maximum width reduced - Changed width of MPX signal display - BS412 display updates did not always occur in the BS412 panel. TODO: - PHASE ROTATION BROKEN AT LOW LATENCIES - Remember old location in left menu per section. So if you open Processing you go back to Processing -> Stereo -> AZIMUTH for example. Or would that be annoying? You might expect to go to Processing overview screen... - Add bandpass, FM (via MPX panel!), latency/quality and maybe sound cards to bottom display. - Clean up button bar (remove some things and move to Configuration view?) - What to do with FM settings? Move to config? - Check crash in command line version (in Enabled refresh function - probably related to loaded parameters - is that even possible? Cannot reproduce it anymore...) - Pull-down scroll bar appears when it's not needed - After scrolling with scroll bar, mouse hover doesn't work anymore - Implement mouse wheel and cursor keys for sliders - And a warning in the buttons bar if unregistered options are in use, or change 'Register' button color. - Display last loaded preset name, if possible also with whether it has been changed and keeping it on restart - Same for new version alerts. I think I can put both between the buttons in the button bar if the screen is wide enough, if not I can put it above the button bar in the section above it isn't too big. Not sure if that's a good idea though, maybe I need to do something else instead (for example combine buttons such as Help and About if the screen isn't wide enough). Less urgent for usability: - Design (several people are working on something) For later: - Multi-language support - Add basic/advanced modes - Add '-6' '-12' etc. beside output bars where possible. - Context sensitive Help (help button should be next to the preset buttons) - Drag (resize window parts) lines, also between to/bottom part (scopes/meters). |

Mess fixed. I just discovered that phase rotation is broken at lower latencies (1024 and 512), probably also in version 6.32! So avoid it for now... |

Few usability improvements (you can now click on volume meters to go to the volume settings) I think I fixed a bug in the clipper, which may have some effect on the audio (?). Natural Dynamics can be enabled by changing the setting OVERRIDE_ShowNaturalDynamics to 1. Stand alone: http://www.stereotool.com/download/ster ... 33-030.exe Winamp DSP: http://www.stereotool.com/download/dsp_ ... 33-030.exe VST: http://www.stereotool.com/download/vst_ ... 33-030.dll TODO: - Fix OVERRIDE_ShowNaturalDynamics loading/saving - Check crash in command line version (in Enabled refresh function - probably related to loaded parameters - is that even possible?) - Pull-down scroll bar appears when it's not needed - After scrolling with scroll bar, mouse hover doesn't work anymore - Implement mouse wheel and cursor keys for sliders. - Find 3 memory leaks - Remember old location in left menu per section. So if you open Processing you go back to Processing -> Stereo -> AZIMUTH for example. Click on Processing again (if it's already open) and you go to the Processing screen. - did it only for 2 top levels but I think this makes more sense. - Disable Airy Highs if there are very little highs - need to do final test to confirm that it doesn't hurt other sounds - Fix declipper click issue - greatly reduced - Add bandpass, FM (via MPX panel!), latency/quality and maybe sound cards to bottom display. - Clean up button bar (remove some things and move to Configuration view?) - What to do with FM settings? Move to config? - Check hangup - not seen anymore, may have been caused by old pull-down menu implementation. - And a warning in the buttons bar if unregistered options are in use, or change 'Register' button color. - Display last loaded preset name, if possible also with whether it has been changed and keeping it on restart - Same for new version alerts. I think I can put both between the buttons in the button bar if the screen is wide enough, if not I can put it above the button bar in the section above it isn't too big. Not sure if that's a good idea though, maybe I need to do something else instead (for example combine buttons such as Help and About if the screen isn't wide enough). - Mouse shape Less urgent for usability: - Design (several people are working on something) For later: - Multi-language support - Add basic/advanced modes - Add '-6' '-12' etc. beside output bars where possible. - Context sensitive Help (help button should be next to the preset buttons) - Drag (resize window parts) lines, also between to/bottom part (scopes/meters). - Confirm on close (stand alone version) |

Quote: BAD.. ?
I had uploaded an earlier BETA030 and it sounded horrible (something was broken) - so I replaced the post by 'BAD' - indeed very unclear if you didn't see it beforeWhat is so bad ? Or what is goin bad ? Now there's a new version 030 - I'm curious if anyone hears a difference? The bug fix should (but probably VERY slightly) affect the Loudness filter, and mainly the bass clipper in it. |

In which section do I need to enforce this setting. I created a new copy of sts file (from VST plugin). The new file does not have this parameter. I tried inserting the parameter in [Stereo Tool Configuration] and [Natural Dynamics] sections. Don't see it in UI yet...Another thing - in previous version of sts files, settings for Attack(Down-speed) and Release (Up-speed) were swapped wrt to UI. I raised this request, if you remember, to rectify. For the sake of not making older presets obsolete, you said you'll get it fixed with the UI revamp. Can I expect this happening now? Attack speed - Band 7=0.00005 Decay speed - Band 7=0.0009

I see that the exact name is "OVERRIDE: ShowNaturalDynamics" - and it's under [Stereo Tool Configuration] indeed. About the change of attack and decay: Currently the .STS files are still nearly completely compatible with earlier versions (AGC bands and a few Stereo Image settings are different). So I think it's best to leave it as is for now... |
