Scan Tailor Experimental:
https://github.com/Tulon/scantailor
is a continuation made by one of Scan Tailor's original creators (Tulon).
(He moved on from Scan Tailor for many years,
but made a return back in ~2015.)
That version was last updated in 2017.
To see a nice summarized list of all the alternate versions, see the
DIY Book Scanner thread: "Feature Comparison for the Various Flavors of Scan Tailor".
From all my testing, Advanced is still the best.

Towards the middle of that book is where things started really getting hairy. You had pages that didn't follow the norms set in the rest of the book, plus large images (hence despeckling sliders were perfect).
Since the Left pages were slightly smaller, Finereader also thought most of the text was "bold", so the text was a big ol' mess!
Anyway, you're severely missing out. Multi-core alone is a reason to use Advanced.
So much of my time was spent staring at the screen while working on large books, or waiting for Output to happen after tweaking an earlier stage slightly.
Upgrade, you won't regret it.
