I feel you, it's kinda like throwing a bassmaxx plug on something.Today wrote:Killamike49 wrote:What exactly do widener plugins do? The same thing as turning it 100% seperated in FL?Today wrote:dupe and use pan pots > widener plugins
i don't know FL at all, but they all petty much spread a stereo signal wider, i think maybe they interpret it as dual mono and hard pan each channel toward their respective side as you raise the spread param.
some sound great, i usually find that they get a bit phasey, lose some presence in the mid range, thin out a bit. Great when you drop it over another layer that is warmer/centered, to thicken things up. but i usually prefer to use my pan pots and retain more control and power. I like spreading things manually in Reason or other vst built-in mixers and then just track it in stereo. widening plugs just kinda have this thing about them that i'm not crazy about
