Dimensional Expander VST?
I received a suggestion from a feedback post on my current project. I was told to apply a dimensional expander on my bassline...but I didn't use massive. Are there any free vst plugins that work the same way?

a reverb a bit of a quick delay yields somewhat of the same effect

Sure? How are you doing it?jrisreal wrote:didn't work...but thanks thoRandoRando wrote:a reverb a bit of a quick delay yields somewhat of the same effect
Short reverb? I normally go with a smaller room and turn up the wetness.
What DAW you using? In FL there's a "Stereo separation" knob in each mixer track. Work with opening that up.
And with the delay, use a short time and then edit "Stereo offset" settings

Different thing entirely, the dimension expander is a hyped up reverb/stereo imaging tool...benjaminC wrote:How about third one down modern expander?Basic A wrote:They dont have anytihng that even remotely resembles massives Dimension Expander?

Clone the channels and pan one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right.
Layer them up, maybe displace them a fraction... works well on 'Brostep' basses and basically mimics the effect of stereo widening.
But yeah, should be plenty of VSTs out there... try google.

Re: Dimensional Expander VST?
Everyone always says that shit about panning, you guys checking this stuff in mono after you do that or is this maybe why brostep sounds like... blah... on big systems? And the dimension expander doesnt do a whole lot to the stero image, just enough... all about its reverb/exciter functions...Filthzilla wrote:RandoRando wrote:a reverb a bit of a quick delay yields somewhat of the same effectI'm pretty sure that won't work haha.

Same thing as stereo separation? Tried that, it softened the bass I was using too much, but normally I would agree.Filthzilla wrote:Clone the channels and pan one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right.

What daw are you using? Using a filter delay in Ableton I think I can do what your asking.

Re: Dimensional Expander VST?
Ok WOW! I tried the reverb thing with my new sennheisers and WOW I noticed a difference!
Re: Dimensional Expander VST?
lol at the 'massive' generation of producers... saying that a tune needs more 'dimensional expander' to give depth instead of reverb / chorus
anyway, this may help you.

EDIT: That costs money

Re: Dimensional Expander VST?
Its got nothing to do with the dimensions expander in NI massive. Thats a dynamic expander and does the opposite of compression, but using the same controls frequently found in compression.benjaminC wrote:Yea fair I get that but its a great alternative that I was just recommending.Basic A wrote:Different thing entirely, the dimension expander is a hyped up reverb/stereo imaging tool...benjaminC wrote:How about third one down modern expander?Basic A wrote:They dont have anytihng that even remotely resembles massives Dimension Expander?

As an alternative, its like saying this chalk is cheese
