After I installed HB3.0962 I'm getting the following error on close

5:52:59 PM: can't open file 'C:\Program Files\Har-Bal 3.0\HarBal.ini' (error 5: access is denied.)
5:52:59 PM: Error saving user configuration data.

My version of HB3 is no longer registered. I select the lic, close HB3 and on reopen it states that it is an unregistered copy.

Thanks for letting us know. I'll check it out as soon as I can. I guess I've never noticed it cos I've never actually used L and R filters independently. cheers, Paavo. I stumbled upon it by using HB3 to tweak my bands backing tracks. It's a stereo wave file with Left side music and Right side clic...

I rendered a wave file (44.1k/16bit) and noticed that some of the right side had spilled over to the left side. The right side had no spill over. I only used the L/R filters with no compression, Air or M/S filters.

I tried rendering multiple times with the same result every time

When your ears are blocked up from the flu and you cannot tell that 10db of gain at 3k is not really doing anything, HB-3 needs to go into "Suck Mode" and shut itself down and not let me reopen it! ha ha ................

What was fixed in version HB3.0961?

To explain, that message box comes up if you attempt to load a filter file from track A when working on track B. Its a deliberate restriction to attempt to stop users from using a wrong filter with a given file, hearing horrible results and blaming Har-Bal. You could do that in Har-Bal 2.3 but in t...

Every time I load a filter I get the attached error message. I have even saved MID filters and tried loading the filter while MID was selected

Hello Byron, You've lost me a bit there. HarBal 3 accounts for as much as it can in the predicted spectrum post filtering. The bits it can't show you is the effect of mid and side filters on left and right or indeed, the effect of left and right filters on mid side. The reason is why that is the ca...

I was doing an experment on a really bad............. mixdown. I was taking a 100% visual approach. Speakers turned off. I corrected the extremely bad dips in the MID. Switched to the SIDE and corrected a few more problems. Gave a listen and it was better then the original but not great considering ...

The average power plot is louder then the peak power plot. This is the first time I have seen this happen. Spectrums are correct

The code required to manage multiple filters is rather complex so I wouldn't be surprised if you've found a bug. On the other hand, I'm guessing it will probably be a difficult one to reproduce. Can you easily reproduce it with any track? If so, can you tell me the steps you take. One thing to try ...

Oh yeah. I see what you mean! I'm blind to the obvious and thanks for the good suggestion. I'll try and think up some key combination to achieve that. Any suggestions on one? thanks, Paavo. Vertically maybe "Shift" + Left Mouse Horizontally mabye "CTRL" + Left Mouse I also thoug...

I'm not sure exactly what you're after with the movement restricting shortcuts. Vertical position of a node has no effect on the transfer characteristic. Movement in that direction is allowed simply so you can arrange the nodes in a manner that you find most pleasing to read. cheers, Paavo. Hi Paav...
