Topic: BUG: PT 6.2.2 fake-loading of true stereo files

When you load a stereo IR in PT 6.2.2 the program now always tells you you loaded a truestereo(TS) 2x2 stereo channels file, even when you loaded a normal 2 channel IR.
Problem: impossible to know if your TS IR loaded correctly.

This is clearly wrong, can't make a real true stereo IR (which has 4 channels) out of a  stereo (2 channels) IR.

Back to 6.2.1 for the moment.

Re: BUG: PT 6.2.2 fake-loading of true stereo files

I see there is some work done on this problem in 6.3, great, thanks! (but still found a problem)
To load a true stereo Impulse Repsonse you have to drop the left channel file onto the interface (or use the menu from the Reverb to load a .WAV).
Dots : "." are no problem anymore!
Supported name formats I found so far:
<filename>-L.wav  & <filename>-R.wav
<filename><space>-L.wav & <filename><space>-R.wav
<filename>.L.wav & <filename>.R.wav
Not working: _L.wav & _R.wav. No biggie, but it's the naming-format used by Liquidsonics Reverberate. Would be handy if you could add this.

But there's still a real problem: if you drop a wav-file that's named in a correct way, thus ending in e.g. -L.wav Pianoteq always tells you that it loaded a 2x2(true stereo) file, also when the corresponding -R.wav is missing. This seems a bit of a non issue, but errors are very easy made with file naming, so a file-pair that's named 2,4s Very Small Hall -L and 2,4s Very Small Mall -R will seem to load while in fact it just loaded the -L. I think it would be best if PT could check for the presence of the -R file during load, and would inform the user of an error (-R file not found).

Thanks!
