Stereo/Mono % amount

cypher79

The Deluge has a Stereo on/off function, but it would be great if we could also set the stereo amount, like in Abletons 'Utility' plugin which lets you set the amount from 0% (mono) right up to 200% (full width stereo) with 100% stereo being the default.

This helps a lot in creating space in the mix, and stops all the sounds fighting for the same space in the stereo field.

This feature would be really useful imo, it's basically a Stereo Imager and probably not that difficult to implement (I'm assuming so anyway)

there is a panning function.....so you can already make room in the stereo field....

Panning is not the same thing as Stereo Imaging.

i know....but you can create room in your stereo.....that is all i am saying...

Would also be cool to then have a cutoff-control for the width, to make certain parts of the spectrum mono and the rest remain stereo. You could then mono the lower frequencies of a bass or a kick, and still have it big and wide in the tops.

A good reference for this is the TP Basslane VST by Tone Projects.

Interesting!

Yes, this is what I wanted too to be Stereo Spread (Width) option for individual instruments for better mixing. Do they have it already in firmware v.3?

There's been no mention of it, so I wouldn't expect it.....and I think I was wrong about the stereo on/off, I believe that option is only for the Delay....so it looks like all samples are stereo....not great for kicks and sub bass.

Hello, I got my Deluge and there is the "Width" parameter. I though that is for synth but it is really for reverb.
So let's ask for this feature to have percentage of width of a specific track.

Hello, where is this setting is located and is it applicable to separate synth tracks?

It's the 'stereo' shortcut on the right hand side of the pads, second row in.....and like I said, I believe it's only for the delay. For widening synths, you should try the 'unison' or 'polyphony' shortcuts.

Unfortunately I did not find the mono/stereo setting of the synth...

There isn't one. The stereo on/off previously referred to only switches the delay between ping-pong and normal.
