It's generally accepted that the best way to use the XTerminators is BlurXTerminator on linear data, then StarXTerminator to take out those stars not long after, and NoiseXTerminator on non-linear data. But continued testing shows this often doesn't yield the best outcomes if you are developing for aesthetics. Let's take another deep dive into the use of these applications and explore outcomes that seem to defy the documentation. Once again, I'm going to throw away doctrine and simply judge the outcomes based on the aesthetic merits of the final images. And, as in the last video, the outcomes surprised me.
