Midside Matrix

Midside Matrix free stereo-imaging by Goodhertz

Midside Matrix is a free stereo imaging VST, VST3, Audio Unit, AAX plugin developed by Goodhertz. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b, macOS.

Midside Matrix pares down our acclaimed mid/side processor, Midside, to just the essentials: mid/side matrixing, gains, monitoring, & metering — all in a simple, lightweight package. And, because we love M/S processing so much at Goodhertz, we decided to make Midside Matrix free for everyone.

Features:

  • M/S encoding & decoding.
  • M/S mute functionality.
  • High resolution M/S gain faders.
  • Pre/post fader level metering.
  • Flip left/right.
  • Click-free operation (fully automatable).
  • Large goniometer.

Simple Mid/Side Recording

The M/S microphone technique is extremely flexible and sounds great in lots of applications, but because of the complexity of creating an M/S recording in most DAWs, it’s often incorrectly setup or avoided altogether.

M/S recording is a lot better with Midside Matrix. In the words of Tyler Duncan, “This plugin has already condensed one session by 12 tracks.”

Always Automatable

Like all our plugins, Midside Matrix was built to be automated and moved around — (even the mute and matrix buttons won’t click or pop). Use it to manipulate space and depth; automate the mid/sidegains to create more motion in your mixes or masters.

MIDI Polysher

MIDI Polysher free studio-tool by eaReckon

MIDI Polysher is a free studio tools VST plugin developed by eaReckon. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b, macOS.

MIDI Polysher is a free VST plugin primarily designed for eaReckon BloXpander users (but it works with other compatible VST host software). BloXpander is now provided with its own full-featured MIDI filter and therefore, BloXpander users do not really need this plug-in anymore.

However, over the past few years, musicians have shown interest for this plug-in which can be used in other VST compatible DAWs.

This plug-in is a VST MIDI filter that offers the possibility to virtually split your master MIDI keyboard into multiple key and velocity zones.

It also features a transpose option, a MIDI channel filter and three global filters (CC, Pitch Bend and Aftertouch).

Please note that how easy (or even possible) it is to use MIDI Polysher highly depends on the host’s MIDI routing capabilities.
