Stereo Imager

The Width knob controls the stereo image width. The Reverse button swaps the left and right channels.

Mono input signals are converted to stereo using a filter. Two filter types are available:

• Shelve: Low frequencies are directed to the left channel, and high frequencies are directed to the right channel. The Color knob controls the crossover frequency.
• Comb: A delayed signal is added to the left channel and subtracted from the right channel. The Color knob controls the spacing between the notches of the comb filter.

Both mono-to-stereo algorithms are mono-compatible: when the stereo outputs are summed, the resulting signal is identical to the original mono input.

Tip: Alternatively, you can pan the track to one side and its reverb to the opposite side. You can use an Effect Return section for the reverb, or you can use a Stereo Effect in the track. The Stereo Effect has presets for this.
