i'm getting a better understanding of the mixer error.

it's 1/3 of a decibel somewhere in the bottom mids. like, honestly: 0.3333333333.....

that suggests some kind of rounding error as a consequence of a type conversion. but it seems to be hard coded into the program.

i'm not hearing it in most a/b's, and the compression i'm using is wiping it out almost entirely with that mild adjustment.

as mentioned: i'm neurotic. i must check.

but, it's almost certainly going to be more or less universally inaudible in anything with any compression. and, that's good news.
