0.21.4 is a bit too enthusiastic, a bit chaotic but the better dynamic makes the sound more sensational then 0.21.4.
Just my 2 cents.

Subjectively I find 0.21.4 has more "speed". If you play Poetry of the Drums, dial up to a certain loud volume (say -10 dBFS) .. 0.21.4 just flows better than 0.21.7 (The harmonics is natural).

Unfotunately I just cannot nail down what causes these differences.

Blind Testing U5 will be replacing 0.21.7 with 0.21.8. Let's see what happens then.
