Thanks for this!

So is the relationship of Q to Filter Alignment documented somewhere?  (e.g. Q = 0.707 for Butterworth, etc.)

mattkhan:
No, I suggest you use the app I linked above if unsure and/or need  named filter types

When I listen to a random playlist I often come across a track that I'd like to hear the entire album. A key to "Add entire album to playlist - play next" would be great. Basically, insert all the tracks of the album in the next position of the playlist - not at the end of the list.

Hi. Really pleased with the addition of track specific DSP. This is a request for an amendment to the DSP field.

Can the option to make it a Calculation be added please.

There could be various use cases for this. One I have implemented is to set-up volume levelling using a set of DSP pre-sets, each one adjusting the volume by a set about (1dB steps from -20dB to +20dB, named -20 to 20. I then use a calculation to read the track volume LU and set the DSP field to compensate. The problem with the built-in volume levelling is that it applies the same correction to all tracks in an album and I have tracks from different sources (eg CD rip, HD Tracks) in the same album and the use the comments field the specify the source.

Another ask is to be able to set a DSP preset when stop is pressed. The reason for this is that the volume seems to default to 0dB. Since most tracks have a correction to lower the volume, when play is first pressed the volume is too loud for a brief time before the DSP preset is loaded. I have applied a 0.7 second between track delay to my set of volume DSP presets to avoid this when playing an album or playlist.

Best wishes, chriswires

Chris, I don't have any solutions to your problems but I am curious that you are able to use 0.7 second between track delay with your set of volume DSP presets to avoid this when playing an album or playlist. I have been trying this for several years and adding a gap between tracks does not work for me. Even with the latest version of MC, the DSP for the next track loads and takes effect 6 seconds before the end of the current track. The wrong DSP is therefore used for the last 6 seconds of the current track. The specified gap is added after the end of the current track and the length of this gap has no effect on when the next DSP is loaded and takes effect. This, for me, renders the track-by-track DSP feature almost useless. The only time I find it useful (with the latest version of MC) is playing a series of tracks with the same DSP specified; Matt fixed this so that when the DSP for the current track and the next track are the same, the DSP is not unloaded/reloaded and the transition is seamless. But even in this case, the first 0.7 seconds of the first track plays with no DSP before the specified DSP kicks in. I wish at this could be fixed; then at least playing albums with all tracks using the same DSP would work.
