Problem

Widening and positioning a signal required duplication, delays and manual routing.

Tool

I combined L/R delays, sMON control, pan, pre/post filtering and per-channel phase inversion in one device.

Result

Fast, precise stereo imaging, a tidier session and low CPU impact.

sMONOficator MultiBand — sMONOficator spatial control extended to multiple bands, with separate control of lows, mids and highs.
Problem

One width setting cannot suit every frequency range when each needs a different stereo space.

Tool

I brought the Haas effect to multiple bands with independent delay, pan and mix, M/S processing and channel selection.

Result

Position lows, mids and highs separately, with greater control over tracks and buses.
