One last question Aleksey,
The Crunchessor 2.0 page only says this:
Version 2.0, 15-may-2008:
Initial public release.
Aside from the cool looking new gui, are there any other improvements?
I'm trying to decide if I should upgrade.
Thanks!
From Q&A:
"Version 2 of Crunchessor fully implements compression algorithm of version 1. However, version 2 features a lot of “fine-tuning” applied to this algorithm, so in some cases version 2 algorithm may perform differently and usually better than version 1. It should be also noted that preset format of version 2 is incompatible with version 1 presets, but both version 1 and version 2 plug-ins can be used in the same project without conflicting each other, allowing for a smooth transition from version 1 to version 2."
Beside that, it offers multi-platform support, multi-channel operation, mid-side processing, preset manager, and other additions - list is pretty long.
In fact, I see little reason not to upgrade as long as you like the sound of this newer version.

I would report some of the differences that *I* saw (like custom key filtering and a dry/wet mix control that I didn't see before in 1.x), but I would think that a definitive list, straight from the horse's mouth that's more comprehensive than...
Version 2.0, 15-may-2008:
* Initial public release.
...is *more* than in order here.

Thanks for the list...
I'm finding that I miss the Input Gain control though (in spite of its superfluousness). It was useful when the raw track level is way too low.
