This software processes stereo images for audio units, offering capabilities such as LR/MS conversion, stereo image widening or narrowing, and more.
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.
