Later the overlap factor of the block processing was increased, this more or less hides the artefacts, but they are still there. Another thing to take into account that at LF the real filter does not correspond at all to the one shown in the GUI. > Is there a better GPL tool I should have used? If you want one that has this type of 'graphical' filter I suspect the answer is no. But you don't need graphical filters for mastering, a multiband parametric will give better results.
