Rapture Pro flawed DSP routings drawing

The GUI of Rapture Pro is so bad that I'm only spending my time to write this in case they will offer it for free (which will probably be soon) - at which point I want the freebie to work correctly.
 
Now:
 
In the Filter FX section there's a ROUT arrow that calls up menu with 16 routing options (00 to 15 - 00 being Bypass). Number 4, 5 and 6 (there may be more) have been incorrectly interpreted in the drawing on the right and further in the settings area (where you choose your filter, DSP, etc).
 
For instance algorithm number 4, the way it is represented in the drop down menu AND THE WAY IT BEHAVES SONICALLY does this: the signal is split from the start into 2 parallel signals. The first goes through Filter 1, then throuh DSP1, then through DSP 2. The second goes through Filter 2 and then through DSP 3.
You can easily verify this: put a lowpass filter in both Filter 1 and Filter 2. Fully close one of the filters (turn Cutoff to the minimum) and you'll hear the other signal is still present.
 
The drawing and the settings area do not match this sonic behavior.
 
I hope this gets fixed.

    I'm not sure this will be helpful, but I'll give it a go. 


    added the image to show where I think (or the image would seem to suggest) the signal is actually split.

    The way you are describing: "The first goes through Filter 1, then throuh DSP1, then through DSP 2. The second goes through Filter 2 and then through DSP 3." Seems to match the description in the Filter FX drop down menu. The drop down menu says:
     
    04. F1->DSP1->DSP2||F2->DSP3
     
    But what I'm seeing in the routing image is:

    F1 -> DSP1 => SPLIT 1 -> DSP2 -> DSP3
                             SPLIT 2 -> F2   --^

    I find that really confusing too. Is it maybe just something in the nomenclature of the routing drop down? I mean what does || represent?

    Exactly! That's what I'm saying: the drop down menu is correct (having been copied from the original Rapture).
     
    It's the routing images that are incorrect in the case of 4, 5 and 6 (there may be more)
     
    || means "parallel".

    Yeah, strange indeed. Hopefully someone will notice this and chime in.
