Raising Jake Studios SideMinder ME2
Mastering Stereo Widener Plugin
Dynamic Stereo Width Maximizer - Mastering Edition
SideMinder ME2 provides the ultimate in mono-compatible stereo image enhancement and control.
SideMinder ME2 is an advanced and feature-packed version of the original SideMinder with up to three independent bands of stereo width control plus extended range Bass Narrow control.
Additional features include selectable input/output correlation metering, stereo/mono and normal/delta outputs for quickly auditioning SideMinder ME2's action.
Also included is an "Advanced" control section for those who want to fine tune SideMinder ME2's Width Limiter section.
SideMinder ME2 can be used to enhance and control the stereo width of mixed program material and can add a "3D" quality that has to be heard!
As in the original SideMinder, SideMinder ME2 is not a compressor and does not affect the dynamics of your mix, only the stereo width.
SideMinder ME2 does not add ambience but, instead, brings out the width in the original source material.
Fit It In The Mix Widthwise
In the same way that a compressor can be sidechained to duck the level of the source signal in response to increases in sidechain level, SideMinder ME2 can reduce the stereo width of the source signal in response to increasing width of the sidechain signal.
(External sidechain must be supplied a stereo signal which is not supported in some DAWs.
