Phase issue with zero latency mode with Dt 880 Pro headphones

I have a problem with Dt 880 Pro and the sonarworks.

This headphones profile has a very aggressive (especially in the bass frequencies) correction that i like because of the tonal balance that it gives me,but being so aggressive the phase especially in the upper bass and lower mid-range just dosn't sound right, its sounds muddy and congested in that area.

All this is solved with the Linear phase mode but its has a really bad pre-ringing so i can't use it for mixing and mastering.

I don't know what to do to solve this.

Thanks.

    Hi Felipe, 

    Thanks for the message! Have you already had a chance to try out the new 4.3 update? It's not yet officially announced, but it is already available here. We have introduced a new Mixed Phase mode, a much-needed improvement over the previously removed Optimum filter mode. 

    This might very well be the option you're looking for, let us know if it solves the issue!

    Hi Kārlis  thanks for the response, I've tested the new mixed filter for a while and its does solve the problem  although it still has pre-ringing  speccially in bass heavy music but much more subtle.  GOOD WORK!

    Thanks!
