General purpose low delay preset. It's made for 75us so it might not take full advantage of the extra HF headroom that 50us offers when used in 50us. 77% quality is intentional. 100% sounds cleaner but also duller.
-Requires MPX clipper because otherwise it won't "sparkle".
-Uses multiband burst protection as a second multiband stage

For ST 7.60 (preset v7.1): You may want to set FM transmitter lowpass to 16400Hz or disable it (preset is already lowpasased at 16400). It make a difference in clarity for me.
For ST 7.60 (preset v7.1) 75us: Please uncheck Advanced Clipper > Distortion > Reduce IMD Voice Vibrations to improve transients and sibilants.

Could use more highs. I thought limiting the highs will reduce the artifacts but I don't seem to notice artifacts anymore so more highs it is. Should also sound clearer with 50us now.

7.1: enabled oversampled preclip for (marginally) better highs.

This version was made for ST 7.40. The mutiband behaviour has since changed and Sparkle v7.1 now sounds better on ST 7.50.

10.4: fix for new multiband behaviour
