Where is the Smart SDR 4.1.5 Manual?

Looking all over for a Manual for Smart SDR 4.1.5. Can't seem to find one.

In my previous version of smart SDR there were slider under DSP so I could adjust the levels of various filters. In 4.1.5 there are only buttons. How do I get sliders? The filtering in 4.1.5 is very poor as it is after the install.

I paid for SmartSDR+ for new features but nothing appears to be added. So I am wondering, what did I get for my money?

The fact that I cannot seem to find a manual accessible from the help menu item nor from the website after much searching is disconcerting.

At this point I think 3.7.3 gave me more control over the noise than 4.1.5 allows. However there may be more to discover if I just knew where to get the information.

I have always wondered why the DSP is so poor on flex radios compared to my Yeasu FT-891 the DSP in that little mobile radio is thoroughly excellent. Just Wondering.

hoping for some answers. 73

    Currently, there are no sliders for DSP functions. Some may reappear in version 4.2.x.

    But, no guarantees.

    Apparently the manual is incomplete or hasn't been updated for many years.

    This just tells me that upgrading form 3.7.4 to 4.15 is unwise!

    How do you figure that? There have been a lot of people that have upgraded without having any problems.

    Well, probably 90% or more is the same. Major difference seems to be related to noise mitigation (sliders are gone, etc).

    I asked this question yesterday and Mike shared this link for a SmartSDR Software User Guide

    The one currently online (at least the one I downloaded from the link) seems to be missing some figures and screenshots. Not quite 'publisher ready', but certaInly good for reference.
