Which is just true. It's also true that changing the window function and increasing the FFT overlap has reduced the artefacts to below -80..-90 dB w.r.t. the signal. But that's not a solution but a cover-up, coming at the expense of a lot of wasted CPU load - Jamin takes 35% on my 2GHz P4. For what it is doing 5% would be reasonable. And it doesn't help to bypass the EQ: it is *always* in circuit, even if the response is forced to flat when you enable the 'bypass' checkbox. Nor does it help to improve the atrocious type of responses that the 'HD' filter will generate if you are just a bit unlucky. Ciao, -- FA O tu, che porte, correndo si ?
