Which version/versions of MQNControl did you use?
I use the newest, sure sounds very good.

uploaded sse2 R2.9, gone back to 512 samples, so use the 512 control. Of course, it's the latest and greatest.

I have just spent the last couple of hours listening to AVX 3.6 and it sounds very good....forget micro detail.....Nano detail and lots of layers.
I should point out that I put my Power and Pre amps with all of 24 valves in to hibernation over a week ago for the summer so I am running balanced into a Solid State Integrated Primare amp.
Certainly do not think we need any more resolving power from MQN and everything is very clean and defined, thought some of the recent versions were "trying too hard" but enjoying SSE2 2.5 and AVX 3.6 this evening.

Need to spend a few more days listening now that all versions are now working with no crackles to see which one is best for me.
Great Work!

a bit cheeky to comment on Tony's setup, I now think he was right about lack of detail.

It seems to take a few days for the true nature of a version to come out, when working with it so closely.

back to 10ms, sse2 R2.11 probably state of the art.

I now changed the mqn.bat like this:

Replaced the cd <path> command with

Code: Select all

Set rundir=%cd%

Which stores the current working directory.

Then to each file and command I appended this: %rundir%\
Like:

Code: Select all

%rundir%\mqncontrol.exe --file %rundir%\Files.txt
This way I can make a copy of this file without having to change the cd <path> (so I can't forget either) and it will always use the local files and commands.

Cheers

As mqnload.bat is dynamically created each time you hit hotkey it's not necessary here, but good solution to use variables in original mqn.bat!

I know, but I want to be able to apply tasker commands after running mqncontrol and I can't do that when using mqnload, unless I call mqnload from within a batch that comtinues to run tasker.
