				LE-1 Loudness Enhancer (final version updated)

				LE-1 is a Loudness Enhancer.
I've built this for my own needs, but if U find it useful, take it for free 

It's not formally a classic compressor and not a classic EQ, it's a "signal fattener" with "eq" controls for high and low band plus a tube warmer.
I've built it for invigorate my "poor & constipated" native soft synthesizers (FM7, and some freeware). It's calibrated in my own taste.
Try it also with standard Creamware synths like Uknow, Saturn or Miniscope, or try with voice recording and (with carefulness) with some poor MP3 songs (warning, maximized mix and/or higher pot levels can reach some unwanted distortion).
If U find some bugs and if U have some opinion, please let me know 
 
Enjoy =)

[edit] MP3 demos added, all settings are at lowest FX influence (knobs at 0 dB) so if U want more Loudness U have to add more gain!!! Original sound fist, effected sound last [/edit]
[edit] open bug fixed [/edit]

				Damn, it's true... now I'm very busy, but next week, maybe, I can try to correct this bug.
Thanks for the patience in this beta testing 
 
Anyway the sound IMO @ is ok, I need to rework on the dev finalization...
SeeU

hey, you've stolen a circuit design idea from me and copied LochNess 
 
  
 
  
 
nice logo, btw.

				Final version: more stable (I hope...)
Thanks to Wolf for his kind authoirization for this device (that is, anyway, a different project than LochNess).

Yes, I know... I don't know how fix this but this version seems to be stable compared to beta.
Do you really need presets for a 2 knobs device? 
 
In future i will fix it... when I understand SDK better.

				It's not that I need presets, but the device looks for one resulting in an error on each load.

				Eminardi,
you have  probably made a preset parameter list outside the parent device, you need to find it and delete it to fix the error message when opening the device.
The cause why the presets are not working is because in the preset parameters list you have added just the "show" value, but you should drag all the pot values from the parameters list to the preset parameters window and to do it right:
1 select the device in the project window
2 freeze the parameters window
3 freeze the preset parameters window
4 drag all pot values as i've said above
