OptiLab Core v1.1.1

This is a small Winamp DSP polish release.

The REAPER JSFX is still the same Core processor. Its displayed version was
updated so the JSFX download and Winamp build stay on the same release number.

Downloads

For REAPER, download:

  • optilab_core.jsfx

For Winamp-compatible hosts, download:

  • OptiLab-Core-1.1.1-Winamp-DSP-x86.zip

For developers using the native C++ library, download:

  • OptiLab-Core-1.1.1-Native-API.md

Winamp DSP changes

Stream polish now starts at +1.0 dB Input drive in the Winamp DSP.

That is gentler than the REAPER JSFX starting point, but it fits Winamp-style
integer PCM hosts better. In early host testing, the old +4.5 dB starting
point could feel pinned or clipped in Winamp and RadioBOSS. Existing saved
per-host settings are still respected.

The settings window now includes simple live meters:

  • input peak
  • output peak
  • recent full-scale sample activity

The meters use standard Windows controls with plain text readouts beside them,
so the visual feedback is there without making the plug-in mouse-only or
screen-reader-hostile.

Build fix

The Windows CI workflow is now pinned to the VS2022 runner image. That fixes the
GitHub Actions failure where windows-latest moved to an image that no longer
provided the Visual Studio 2022 generator expected by the project.

Markdown-only pushes no longer run the native Windows build.

Notes

Auto-Adapt is still best treated as more control and protection, not a loudness
knob. Start with Auto-Adapt at 0 percent, set Input so the processor sounds
active but not strained, then raise Auto-Adapt only if the material needs more
automatic balancing.
