Width & Depth Plugin

Enhance the soundstage of your stereo mix, and even bring mono recordings to life.

This groundbreaking release showcases a comprehensive overhaul, empowering users with an array of innovative features for unparalleled stereo spreading and sound stage manipulation. StageOne 2 now presents a remarkable 3-band control, housing five distinctive algorithms: WIDTH, DEPTH, PHASE RECOVERY, MONO SPREAD, and CENTER GRAVITY, providing users with an unprecedented level of control and creative possibilities.

With the addition of the new PHASE RECOVERY algorithm, StageOne 2 intelligently identifies and re-aligns out-of-phase components, skillfully avoiding information loss when summed to mono.

The inclusion of CENTER GRAVITY empowers users to rebalance their stereo image, allowing for precise tilting to the left or right.

Widen your soundstage

StageOne 2 gives you unparalleled control over aspects of your stereo field, either to widen stereo audio, add perceived depth, or even give mono signals a stereo image so they fit better in the mix. You can adjust width, depth, and mono spread without phase or mono-compatibility problems; all thanks to a unique algorithm that produces clean results every time.

Between a wide range of applications and an intuitive interface to get your sound faster, StageOne 2 offers better results than traditional techniques. This attention to detail lets you bring depth to and compatibility between disparate audio sources, in a way you can trust.

Widen stereo audio

The WIDTH algorithm ingeniously stretches the stereo field, effortlessly moving off-center content towards and possibly beyond the speakers. While preserving the phantom center, StageOne 2 dynamically expands or remaps surrounding elements, resulting in a captivatingly wider stereo image.

Add the perception of depth

Get a natural sense of ambience and draw attention to or from parts of your mix. Directionally optimized reflections can psycho-acoustically adjust the position of audio within a sound field until you feel everything is in place. Adds an extraordinary sense of depth to the audio.
