This software processes stereo images for audio units, offering capabilities such as LR/MS conversion, stereo image widening or narrowing, and more.
Stereo Image Munger is a versatile software tool that allows users to adjust the levels of M (mono) and S (stereo) channels independently. Often, audio engineers prefer to work with M/S channels to apply separate processing to each channel. Stereo Image Munger changes the basis in the vector space of stereo and provides intuitive options for processing.
The software offers three typical ways of using it. Firstly, users can adjust the L/R gains to pan the audio, and the M/S gains to adjust the stereo image. Increasing the S channel widens the image. Secondly, the software allows the user to output pairs like L/L or M/M to hear each channel by itself. This can be useful to isolate and focus on one specific channel.
Finally, users can create a chain of Stereo Image Munger 1 -> (filter) -> Stereo Image Munger 2. The software sets SIM 1 to translate L/R to M/S before applying filtering to the M/S space - for example, applying EQ on just the S channel. Then, set SIM 2 to translate M/S back to L/R. This is an advanced feature that allows users to apply complex processing to audio files.
Users can also experiment with novel effects by outputting odd combinations such as L/S or by outputting M/S and leaving it there in the mix. Stereo Image Munger is a small Swiss army knife for audio processing, capable of delivering high-quality results. Try it out and enjoy exploring its features.
