1. Great sounding software!
2. Please make a balance slider on the panel or EQ screen. Some recordings need a slight balance correction. It's awkward where the balance slider is now. It does not have to be full range adjustment. Perhaps 10% of the full effect.
3. Can you provide more information on the ultrasonic filter. The theory behind its use in your software. How to make beneficial adjustments. What determines which preset should be used. It seems very configurable, but unusable without more information.
Thank you.

Well, the "Ultrasonic Filter" is just a low pass filter that stops anything above a certain frequency. It is generally assumed that nobody can hear anything above 20 kHz or so ( bats exluded ). But there are people who think they can hear these frequencies no matter what science says. So if you belong to that group and don't want to miss the fun, don't activate this option. I think the original purpose of this together with the subsonic filter was to protect the amplifier and loudspeaker for the case of technical disturbances in the music - why amplify and convert something into sound that you don't hear anyway and that might harm the equipment ?

If this asks generally how to use the equalizer : there are typically two aims for use of an eq. Some people want to change the music so that it sounds better ( bass enhancements etc ). To do that just try it out. Other people want NOT to change the music but hear it how it would sound if they could afford perfect equipment. Of course this isn't really possible, but you can try to mitigate the worst shortcomings of the hardware you use, e.g. example for headphones DT-880

My concern is amplifying ultrasonic frequencies that could damage my hearing, etc.

Then you should activate it and set the cutoff-frequency at a reasonable low value, e.g. 20 kHz

Ok. I'll do that. Thanks.
Any chance on getting a balance slider on the panel or EQ screen. Make it an option?

I cannot reproduce that, works from -1 to +1 for both stereo and mono on windows and android for me

I guess the chances are rather low, as this would be a huge effort for a rather limited functionality. When in doubt feel free to contact neutronmp@gmail.com, they'll know.

Thank you

You can quickly access the Balance Slider by long pressing on the Preamp button in Equaliser pane which will take you to Audio Hardware menu.

Is there any way to reinstall Neutron? (Win 10). It is not responding to any input. The mouse scroll feature works, but otherwise not responsive. Not listed as a program in control panel, where I usually delete programs.
