Fruity Stereo Shaper

Image-Line

Where to get itIncluded with FL Studio. It is part of that DAW, not a separate download.image-line.com

Fruity Stereo Shaper is a multi-purpose stereo imaging tool that controls Left/Right channel mixing, phase relationships, and stereo information in audio signals. It uses a mixer matrix with level and phase controls to enable panning, stereo enhancement/reduction, channel isolation, and mid/side stereo encoding/decoding. The plugin can apply effects before or after the mixing stage and supports sidechain output for independent processing of extracted stereo components.

Written from the manual and checked against it. How we check

Things to Try

  • 01Drag Left into Right and Right into Left sliders down to -6 dB to widen the stereo image through subtractive cross-mixing
  • 02Set all four mixer sliders to -6 dB for stereo reduction that makes L and R channels identical
  • 03Use Delay settings between 20-40 ms on the R channel for pleasing stereoizing of mono sounds
  • 04Raise the SIDE track by up to +6 dB or lower the MID track by -6 dB to maximize stereo effect without diminishing it
