SSL Fusion Stereo Image

The SSL Fusion Stereo Image Plug-in is a mid-side processing circuit that brings width depth and space to your sounds instruments vocals and entire mix. Enjoy natural-sounding 3D enhancing capabilities with comprehensive fine-tuning options. Modelled on a true analog mid-side processing circuit from the SSL Fusion Stereo outboard hardware processor the Stereo Image plug-in brings analog width and grit to your signal. This true analog circuit utilises a technique that separates stereo signals into two channels: a sum (L+R) for centre sounds (Mid) and a difference signal (L-R) for the sounds on the left and right (Side) giving you full control to narrow or widen the stereo image using the Width control. The unique and powerful space circuit is a frequency-dependent width control based on Stereo Shuffling opening up a world of possibilities with interesting depth effects. Furthermore enjoy a brand-new shuffle control for changing the frequency cut-off in the Space circuit allowing you to add weight and presence or carve space in the stereo field. Please Note: This product comes in the form of a digital download code that will be sent to your email for activation.

Mid-side processing The Fusion Stereo Image plug-in works in the mid-side domain. Essentially mid-side processing is a way of encoding a stereo signal that splits the centre and width information into mid and side signals respectively. Once encoded the width and focus of any stereo signal can be manipulated by altering the volume balance between the mid and side signals. Mid-side processing is useful in music production because you want to ensure the clarity of your central focus. Thus Fusion Stereo Image only processes the side signal with a technique called stereo shuffling. Stereo shuffling uses EQ to modify the side signals lower frequencies and in doing so balances the overall signal. By reducing low and low-mid frequencies the centre signal becomes more focused. Alternatively by increasing the lower frequencies the centre signal becomes wides and more diffused. Control Take hands-on control of Fusions stereo shuffling with Shuffle and Space controls. Shuffle and Space are for all intents and purposes frequency and cut/boost controls of an EQ band that gives you control over exactly how focused or diffused the resulting signal will be. More precisely Space broadly boosts or cuts bass frequencies based on the stereo shuffling technique and Shuffle changes the cut-off frequency for the Space control. Once the signal has been processed through Space and Shuffle a Width control allows you to widen or narrow the stereo image by applying gain to the side signal. Finally everything is encoded back into a standard left-right stereo signal. Vector scope To demonstrate the stereo image of your signal SSL has included a highly visual vector scope to graph out Shuffle Space and Width. The central polar sample plot lets you visualise the stereo image of the incoming signal. As you adjust Shuffle Space and Width you will see the signal become wider or more narrow. For advanced stereo plotting samples appearing within the 45-degree lines indicate that they are in phase. FeaturesModelled on the SSL Fusion Stereo Processor Based on Stereo Shuffling Width control lets you increase the level of the side signal to narrow or widen your stereo image Space control allows you to experiment with a broad bass-frequency boost or cut in the side signal Shuffle parameter allows for additional tweaking to the frequency cut-off in the Space circuit Visualise your stereo image with a polar sample plot vector scope Audition the stereo component of your signal with Solo Side Mid/side monitoring Modelled using real-life measurements analog circuit designs and original analog designers Preset management and A/B-ing system Loaded with presets from world-class producers and engineersSpecifications Operating system:Mac: macOS Catalina (10.15) Big Sur (11) Monterey (12) Windows: Windows 10 (64-bit) 11 (64-bit) Processor:Mac: M1/ARM or Intel Dual Core Mac running at 2.4GHz or higher Windows: Intel Core 2 (or comparable) CPU running at 2.4GHz or higherFormat:Mac: AU VST2 VST3 AAX Native Windows: VST 2 (64-bit) VST3 (64-bit) AAX Native (64-bit) Product code: 1331-1017
