@MrKlorox I give every query on this forum my utmost attention. In fact, this one query from In2beats has been the subject of ten emails between myself, John Edwards and Leif.
This is an excerpt, directly from Leif.
“I haven’t made any specific copy for anyone though (I could never maintain that in the long run), if I add a feature and send someone a new version, it’ll be in every official build from that point on.
There’s no RDS phase adjustment, because it’s software generated in sync. There is an RDS Injection Level control. There’s no way for it to drift though, RDS and stereo and pilot are generated together, hard locked.”
I have an email response, directly from Leif that, if he had made an adjustment to the program to allow you to adjust the “pilot level setting”, it would be included in ALL subsequent releases of the software.
Can you imagine how hard it would be to support changes to satisfy the whims of every person’s perceived requirements? Of course, very quickly, it would become a support nightmare, which is why, I am confident that the modification is either in the current stable release, or it may have come to you via means that shouldn’t be talked about on this forum.Why has it taken you so long to respond, and why are we even talking about Stereo Tool? Are you sure you are on the right forum?
I can’t confirm this (but will ask Leif when we next make contact), but I think that the default LAME encoder is the ACTUAL developer version of LAME (“LAME Ain’t an MP3 Encoder”). There have been so many iterations since Mike Cheng’s original.
Cool Edit and then Audition used Fraunhofer’s original algorithm, which I always thought sounded “swishy” or “tinny”. Once it changed to a GPL implementation, there were some great improvements, although some versions were way better than those before or after.
Similar to MrKlorox, when I move the sliders I get VERY significant tonal changes. Sometimes, they work better with a particular genre, but I find, that the bundled presets work very well in a mixed-genre station.
I am streaming my own private music via BA1, so that I can receive it via my phone/Bluetooth to my car, and, right now, I am enjoying a slightly modified version of the “Amsterdam” preset through AAC.Are you using the “Audio Processor > Enhance” button? This should give you access to sliders for Deep Bass, Warmth, Presence and Brilliance sliders. Once you adjust these, BA1 will create a “modified” Preset which you can save as a separate preset.
There was another member of this forum who indicated that Leif had provided him with a “special” version to overcome a problem. I challenged Leif on this and he told me that, if he makes a change, it is incorporated into the very next general release.
The program would be commercially unsupportable if he were to release “tweaks” on the fly for each personal request.
It works fine on my system. At the time I connected, it was playing “ELIO E LE STORIE TESE – Born To Be Abramo” AAC 94-96kbps around 8:30pm Monday, 21 November 2022
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)As an aside, I believe that your input is too hot for AAC. It needs a little headroom, so I would lower the input several dB and let the AGC breathe easier. This is, of course, just my opinion.

How are you specifying the path to the shared folder? I believe that the path should be specified in the “UNC” format (\\ComputerName\SharedFolder).
I’ve not played with this at all, but, if you have two virtual cables defined and set one up as the input to BAE and the other as the output, you might then be able to configure Audials to “listen” to VAC2.
The other possibility is that you are using “KS” (Kernel Streaming) as the input and output. This is a very low level layer in the audio processing, and Audials may not listen at that level. Try changing the output of BAE to “WAV” or even “DS”. Audials may “see” the output at this higher layer.
