hallo,
so here comes my little beta-story:
my setting: samsung laptop, pentium m 1.86, 1 g ram,
samplitude 9.1 (also sam 8.31 and 8.21)
mastercomp 1.5.3 is working fine on the first look, but then there came some strange things. when inserted after another plugin in the chain, there is no sound, when the first plugin is disabled the sound comes back and mastercomp is working fine. i discovered by accident, when i have two plugins before mastercomp it works fine
.
does not matter what plugins, but they must set active in sam-mixer (can be unactive inside the plugin). with three plugins before again no sound, with four again sound. looks like a samplitude problem with plugins with multiple inputs, because i had the same problem a time ago with another plugin with multiple inputs (rayspace). it was solved with a stereo-in version.
i did not try again with what i found out for mastercomp.
i went back in samplitude versions, sam 8.31 the same, then in sam 8.21 everything was running fine
no problem with plugins before.
but i work now in 9.1 :rolleyes: .
project-exchange is not working so good between the versions.
i will write samplitude-support about this, too.
but maybe you can find out something within this version-change (8.21 to 8.31) to make the plugins work in samplitude.
then another funny behaviour of mastercomp (in all samplitude-versions):
when the metering is in gain-reduction-mode and i switch mc off and on (inside the plugin), the sound is coming slowly from silence until it is at the adjusted working point of mc. not really a problem, but unpractical.
i found that the time the sound needs to recover, depends on the release setting. the faster it is, the faster it recovers, but not exactly the same time as release-setting, it is slower than actual release time.
in pre or post-metersetting nothing like this occurs.
so that is it for now. it was really a journey to find this out. i hope this can be fixed, because i really like working with your plugins
.
old versions work fine here, so no time stress
greetings from southgermany to poland

p.s. by the way, all the same with mc beta 1.5.2
