Stereoplacer Elements is a streamlined version of our Stereoplacer plugin, offering the same specific frequency-based panning in a lightweight package.
Features
- Reconstruct a stereo image from mono
- Fix poor stereo microphone placement
- Restore archival recordings
- Organize samples from vintage recordings
The rest of the stereo image remains intact, and the balance of the original sounds is preserved.
Stereo spectrum analysis
The graphical display in Stereoplacer Elements can be used as a stereo difference spectrum analyzer. Leaving the controls in their default positions sets the plugin to analysis mode. The incoming sound is unaffected but is analyzed for stereo content, which is then displayed visually.
Low-end panning
Generally, it is best to avoid panning low-end sounds, as the high energy off-center in the low frequencies can create more problems than it solves. However, using Stereoplacer Elements, the low frequencies present in, for example, a bass track can be left centered while the higher frequencies (i.e., much of the attack component) can be moved across the stereo field with a shelf band, without the usual problems associated with bass-boosting, giving the impression that the bass has been panned when, in fact, only the high-frequency directional information has been moved.
