Thanks, Paavo, that's good news.

Is there any possibility that you're planning on including a built-in "room accoustics" correction feature in 2.0?

H-B 2.0

This is probably a foolish question, but I assume that In addition to the new IntuitQ feature, H-B 2.0 will retain the ability to manually sculpt -- and even use reference files (if desired).

High Pass Filter Settings

Earle, I'm currently working on a project with a real nice big bass bottom end. I have already shelved it slightly at about 45Hz. However, there still seems to be some subsonic rumble and muddiness. I thought maybe I would use a high pass filter to remove some of that, but I wasn't sure what the bes...

Earle,

I assume that when you refer to these RMS levels, you're talking about "average" levels (not maximum, minimum or total RMS levels). Is that correct?

RMS Levels

Earle,

What would you consider the "typical" RMS level range to be of commercial "pop" music -- i.e., artists such as Celine Dion, Josh Groban, Michael Buble, etc.?

You have to do both channel swapping and inverting. If you only do one or the other then it wont result in a stereo difference track. You need to do the inversion on the L-R swapped track to get the correct phasing when mixing back together. Paavo. Paavo, It appears that "doogle" became q...

Paavo, Thank you so very much! I really appreciate your taking the time to prepare and provide this. In looking at Step 2, I was wondering if the same thing could be accomplished in the "Edit" view by simply going to "Effects" -> "Channel Mixer" -- then selecting the pr...

Earle, Thanks for the guidelines. I had originally addressed this request to Paavo because I knew he used Adobe Audition, and I was hoping that he might be able to outline the specific "tools" and "procedures" to accomplish all of this with Audition. Nonetheless, I really appreci...

All you want is the reverb tail of the impulse response convolved with the difference signal. If you can't figure out whether it does let you suppress feedthrough you should be able to get the same effect by feeding the difference signal through the reverb and subtracting the difference signal from...

TECHNICAL HELP NEEDED! Reference File Issue

For some reason (all of a sudden), I'm no longer able to toggle the toolbar Reference button -- even when I have an active reference file (wav) loaded. The button is now grayed out -- just won't work. I've never had a problem with this before. I noticed this problem a day or so after uninstalling an...

Zumbido- An off topic question on Melodyne Cre8 with regard to ptich shifting and time stretching . . . Is that app specifically intended for use on mono solo insturments and tracks, or can it also be used on a stereo mix? Case in point . . . I'm working on a restoration project (stereo)-- originall...

Thanks, Earle.

Regarding your "reverb" comment . . . are you suggesting that reverb should only be used on individual monophonic tracks and not on complete stereo mixes?
