Re: Thetis v2.9.0 - Updates and Issues
Regarding the auto AGC level - another suggestion. Keep functionality as is - if I move the AGC manually it turns it off - but allow me to right click over the "knob" on the slider to set it back to AUTO again and not have to go to SETUP etc. The "light" on the knob completely a...

Re: Thetis v2.9.0 - Updates and Issues
Don't get me wrong, Richie. I 1000% (30dB% :D ) agree that it's extremely important for the auto-AGC algorithm to take into account resolution bandwidth. Indeed, as you know I have argued in the past that it should also take into account the attenuator setting in accordance with the AGC gain algorit...

Re: Thetis v2.9.0 - Updates and Issues
I also use the mic for video conferencing on multiple platforms as well. Somewhere in all that tangle I suspected it was some sort of bitrate negotiation bug. That's easy to believe. And it could also be a buffer size mismatch as well. As a rule, the hardware (Soundblaster in this case) sets the bu...

Re: Thetis v2.9.0 - Updates and Issues
Very interesting Mark, thank you for performing that experiment :) It would seem there are certain amp's out there that really don't like the 700/1900 combination, but are just fine with the 70/190 combo. This doesn't meet the standard two tone test parameters of two frequencies between 300-3000Hz, ...

Re: Thetis v2.9.0 - Updates and Issues
Also, I get rather different (and kinda ugly) curves in the AmpView screen when using TwoTone. Those curves smooth out after a few seconds of mic audio so I decided early on (rightly or not) that TwoTone doesn't give me PS correction characteristics that are optimal for phone audio, so I just quit ...

Re: Thetis v2.9.0 - Updates and Issues
I don't use Two-Tone for anything at all and never have. The nice thing about using two tone is that it can work better for PureSignal to settle in to a solution. However some amp's don't like two-tone for tuning. I see we now have a "F#2 delay# setting to help with that. Another two tone tip:...

Re: Thetis 2.9.0 and VAC initialization issues when using ASIO drivers?
Jordi, All I can say is that I've notice no difference in VAC behavior for years now, since the resampler was implemented, other than with the additional options have helped tune performance even better. Perhaps it's a driver update that happened on the sly? Or a Windows update? Those Windows update...

It's still important to have a "Use Drive Level" options for both Tune and Two-Tone. In fact I never use Two Tone at anything except drive power. Please don't eliminate those options. FWIW, my work flow is as follows: 1. QSY 2. TUNE at tune power with amp in standby 3. Switch amp to opera...

Jordi, First step is to take a look at a screenshot of your Thetis VAC settings. Also, if there is a Soundblaster control panel of some sort, a screenshot of those settings as well. The fact that your fixes for this run the gamut from resetting VAC to a total reboot of everything does not make good ...

Re: Thetis v2.9.0 - Updates and Issues
VAC is working perfectly here. 100% reliable with one exception, which is very occasionally I get bad TX audio (robotic sounding, if that makes any sense), and that is fixed by cycling VAC off-to-on. This only happens if I leave things running for many, many hours. RX audio is never effected. It see...
