Re: Will the 2B ever improve its stereo capabilities?

I honestly just want to know more about how the stereo controls work, so that I can use the adjust more effectively. For instance, I noticed that if the input level of too high, the Adjust value automatically changes. That seems more like a behavior for gain or thresholds than anything else. Unless it's an averaging window thing and your total is hitting its max? I don't know. It seems silly to have to speculate or play reverse engineering games with oscilloscopes when there are active developers on the forums.
It would also be really nice to know how the input is processed because it would let people with audio files get an idea of what files would work, and also maybe let people design a filter or processing chain to make non-2B audio files work better with the 2B. A lot of these are synced with videos or graphics, and letting 2B users enjoy those would be a positive for e-stim, because people could buy a 2B instead of purchasing something else.
I bought the 2B because it seemed like there was active development, and developer involvement in a forum with an active community. The "it's designed to work great with <unspecified> <unspecified>" is disappointing when you could probably share just a little about what it actually does and help your users and the people who create audio estim files. Why not enable people to use the 2B in more ways? Give us users little more info, and maybe we can make the 2B more fascinating, instead of pushing people to other manufacturers or to homebrew (which, IMO seems like a bad idea without a lot more knowledge than I've seen in the instructions I've seen).
I looked at the commander tool. It seemed to me that all you could do was switch between the 2B's existing preset modes and vary the power and 1-2 adjust knobs.I don't know how you would calibrate a file for different electrode configurations or sensitivity at different times, or feel comfortable running a file that you didn't create yourself.
