This release turns the export side of AudioDistillery into a proper delivery tool: professional formats, real metering, and multitrack stems.

More export options (#5, tiers 1–2)

  • Sample-rate conversion on output (large-kernel aresample) and dither when reducing to 16-bit — auto, triangular, triangular HP or Shibata.
  • A one-click CD preset (WAV · 44.1 kHz · 16-bit · dithered), and a full Red Book CD image + cue sheet export: one frame-aligned WAV (588-sample boundaries, engine-side SRC so the cue offsets are exact), CD-Text, and your album's EAN/UPC as CATALOG.

Metering (#2)

  • A live EBU R128 meter in the Chains panel: momentary and short-term bars, integrated LUFS with a calibratable target (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, EBU R128 presets), loudness range, and max-hold true peak — tapped right after the master bus, so it reads exactly what your export will contain.
  • Every export now ends with a loudness report: LUFS-I and true peak of each delivered file (measured after encoding — codec overshoots included), album outliers flagged, anything above −1 dBTP in red. CD images are measured per cue segment, and a visible "analyzing" phase replaces the old silent pause before the report.

Multitrack stems export (#7)

  • Export your cut tracks as stems: one file per layer, one folder per track (01 - Song/01 - Room mic.wav), with {layer} and {ln} macros for custom naming.
  • Stem content is your choice: raw cuts (sample-exact slices of the source files, ideal for re-mixing in a DAW) or with mix settings (layer gain/mute/solo and layer inserts). A layer with no audio under a track still yields a full-length silent stem, so the set always re-imports time-aligned.
  • A new "Source" format choice mirrors each original file's container, bit depth and sample rate — per layer in stems mode.

Also fixed: the load overlay's Cancel button could swallow a stray double-click right after choosing a layout and abort the analysis; it now arms after a short delay.

"Negative feedbacks" always welcome ;)
