WideBug is a simple tool to enhance the stereo sound of your audio material.http://www.betabugsaudio.com/

The suitable utilization for Violent Dual is turning mono lanes into stereo with the Chorus effect:

• The Mix knob changes the ratio of the raw and the stereo sign.
• Depth function continuously changes the frequency of the sign, moving under or over the original sign. Using his function you can change the frequency-difference compared to the original sign.
• The Rate function settles the speed of the frequency-change.
• Delay function can lapse the original and the new sign compared to the other.

One of the many important aspects of Dual is that the new sign never annuls the original, so feel free to use it to change the sense of space with songs, guitars or any other soloistic sound.

V.I Stereo to 5.1 Converter Suite converts a stereo input to a 5.1 output by extracting ambience information embedded in the stereo audio and redistributing it among 5.1 channels.

For VST hosts that do not support a 2-input/6-output VST plugin, the V.I Suite also includes three companion 2-in/2-out plugins: fLfR, CLFE, and sLsR. These duplicate V.I’s effects in three channel pairs, which can later be combined to form a 6-channel file for encoding.

Features

• Width correction helps compensate for source files that were mixed too narrow or too wide.
• Independent controls for adding ambience to the front or rear sound-stage.
• Movie Mode switch redirects some dialog frequencies from front left and right channels to the center channel to enhance dialog while still maintaining a good stereo sound-stage.
• Pass-through of original left and right signals ensures accurate reproduction of original stereo imaging (when not in Movie Mode).
• On/off control for A-B monitoring of effect.
• Switchable LFE channel.

Surroundizer offers stereo to surround translation.

Common features:

• Activation and free 2D position of up to eight loudspeakers, compatible with all surround settings from 4.0 to 7.1, including true octophony (8.0).
• Mono or stereo input.
• Graphic 2D representation space.
• Connexions according to the ITU/SMPTE standard.
• Separated levels for each output channel.
• Variable mix of the three sections plus the reverberation.
• Individual spatial areas and amplitude curves for each section.

Three spatialization sections: Cinetic, Spectral and “LCRS”.

Cinetic section:

• Analysis of the main frequency (pitch tracker) and the intensity (volume tracker) of the two input channels.
• Modulation of the X/Y position of the two inputs according to the analyzed signal values.
• Settings for the default center position, the amplitude of the movement and the smoothness.
• Each channel tracker can control the X or Y position of the two inputs.
• Manual mode for use like any surround module and host automations.

Spectral section:

• Division of the two inputs signals in four frequency bands with three variable crossover filters.
• Each frequency band can be freely positioned (and automated) inside the 2D space.
• Levels settings for each band / channel.

LCRS:

• Simulation of the old Prologic surround sound (5 channels only).

Plus:

• Stereo reverberation with spatial position of the two channels and the area expansion.
• Individual delay and phase settings for the four surround channels (5 to 8).
• Two parametric filters for the center channel (must be improved).
• Optional bass management for the fourth channel.
• Pre-assigned MIDI controllers for easy use with a control surface.
• 128 patches.
• Inline help.

The freeware version is limited to processing only one input.
