A1StereoControl is a stereo expansion plugin. So why is it on this list while others aren’t?
The biggest issue with stereo-widening tools is their tendency to mess up your bass.
A lot of the time, you don’t really want your bass to be super wide. Otherwise, it’ll overtake your mix.
Alternatively, if the stereo-widening tool throws your bass out of phase, it can completely disappear.
That’s why A1 comes with a “Safe Bass” mode. It’ll make sure your bass frequencies are unaffected.
Just pick a cutoff frequency, and it’ll ignore everything below that.
It also allows you to experiment with different types of panning. Tons of interesting features for those looking to get the most out of each mix!
