Release v0.2.2 - Win 10 Hotfix

Change-log

• Fixed path for Windows 10 installer, now it should use the path according to Steinberg VST3 Guidelines(C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3)
• Created special build with static linkage for those who're having issues opening the plugin

Note

If you're having issues running the PeakEater on Windows 10, try alternative installer or VST3 file that uses static linking.

Downloads

• macOS
• Windows 10 Installer
• Windows 10 VST3 file(for manual installation)

Alternative Windows 10 downloads(only if default won't run):

• Windows 10 alternative Installer

Release v0.2.1 with important fixes

Change-log

• Fixed algebraic clipping algorithm
• Fixed issue when 0db is considered as a "Red Zone" in analyser

Known issues

There is a misconfiguration used for Windows 10 installer, so it uses the
\Steinberg\VST3
path instead of
C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3

For those who're having the issues, please try to use VST3 package.
To install it just extract .vst3 file and copy it to the folder where your VST3 plugins are installed(by default, it should be C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3 or C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\VST3).

Updated UI

Slider skew'ing

All sliders now supports skewing for more precise control.

Link In/Out Improvements

Now Output Gain slider will visually react to changes of Input Gain slider in case if Link In/Out checkbox is checked.

More precise handling of post-clipped signal

Meter that shows current post-clipped signal will rely on peaks instead of RMS that will give you more clear picture of how your signal would be clipped. Also, meter respects your clipping slider setting so you can see how you're limiting your signal visually.

Peak analyser reset

You can reset metrics showed on peak analyser by clicking on it.

Tooltips

Hover on top of element and wait for 1.5sec to see tooltip with a description of parameter.

🐛Bug fixes

• Fixed -700dB background noise caused by LP Filter
