I'm not so sure we aren't OVER complicating things :-)
There is a lot of fliexibility, for certain. But the only non-typical control
that's on that list is "threshold". I doubt that you'll see a measurable
difference in score/results if you just leave the filter selection on auto.
That leaves only one new control to get a feel for, and for most operating
even that is generally set and forget. So maybe not so terribly
complicated?
There's been a lot of discussion on AGC threshold. I'm a bit surprised
there hasn't been more comment on the AGC HANG feature. I've found
it to be very useful,. and use in the range of 0.5 -2 seconds (sometimes
more) of AGC hang for most operating.
