I would like to share something with all you guys somthing ive been using for a while its called the "haas effect"



[edit] Sound reinforcement systems

Haas' findings can be applied to sound reinforcement systems and public address systems. The signal for loudspeakers placed at distant locations from a stage may be delayed electronically by an amount equal to the time sound takes to travel through the air from the stage to the distant location, plus about 10 to 20 milliseconds. The first arrival of sound from the source on stage determines perceived localization whereas the slightly later sound from delayed loudspeakers simply increases the perceived sound level without negatively affecting localization.

[edit] Haas kicker

Many older LEDE ("live end, dead end") control room designs featured so-called "Haas kickers" - reflective panels placed at the rear to create specular reflections which were thought to provide a wider stereo listening area or raise intelligibility.[3] However, what is beneficial for one type of sound is detrimental to others, so Haas kickers just like compression ceilings are no longer commonly found in control rooms.[4]

Here is the full wiki page:

But heres the gold a free fx plugin which creates this effect with out all the bs: http://www.vescofx.com/vfxFreeHaas

This is not good for your kick so dont do it!
Or anything below 200hz, it is spectactular for vocals and formant bass and try to use your ears for they are the best tools

basically, you'll just wanna pan a version left and one right, and delay one of the two by about 10-20 ms. It's not that hard to rout by hand, and it can do wonders to your mixdown.

I'm usually lazy so I do a filter delay or Spread in the synth, but I find this better than using the filter delay even though it's basically the same thing.

Try the plugin its a cool effect its not the holy grail of mixdowns or anything

Tried this out on a track im working on, quite a nice widening effect, almost a bit like massives dimension expander
