PSPaudioware PSP VintageWarmer2 v2.11.0
PSPaudioware PSP stereoAligner2 is a professional stereo phase-alignment and correction plugin for dual-channel recordings. It provides precise control over inter-channel timing, phase, polarity, width, balance and gain, helping engineers repair problematic stereo recordings or create controlled spatial effects.
Use stereoAligner2 with drum overheads, grand pianos, orchestral recordings, acoustic instruments, spaced microphone configurations, synthetic stereo sounds and complex mix elements. Its sample-accurate processing and detailed visual feedback make identifying and correcting stereo problems fast and intuitive.
Phase differences between the left and right channels can weaken low frequencies, move instruments away from their intended position and cause sounds to disappear during mono playback.
PSP stereoAligner2 provides variable phase control for correcting inter-channel phase relationships. This helps create a more focused stereo image, improve mono compatibility and restore clarity to recordings captured with multiple or spaced microphones.
The plugin separates phase-alignment processing into low, middle and high-frequency bands. Each range can be adjusted independently, allowing precise correction without changing the entire frequency spectrum.
For example, you can stabilize low frequencies while preserving spacious high-frequency ambience or correct midrange phase issues without affecting the bass.
Three-band processing is especially useful for:
- Drum overhead recordings
- Grand piano microphones
- Acoustic ensembles
- Orchestral recordings
- Stereo synthesizers
- Layered instruments
- Sound effects and ambience
Stereo timing problems often occur when one microphone is positioned farther from the source than another. Even a small delay between channels can introduce comb filtering, reduce impact and weaken the centre image.
PSP stereoAligner2 provides sample-accurate inter-channel delay correction, enabling one channel to be aligned precisely with the other. This can restore focus, improve transient definition and produce a more coherent stereo recording.
Independent polarity controls allow the left channel, right channel or both channels to be reversed. This is useful for correcting improperly wired microphones, front-and-back drum microphone configurations and other recording situations involving opposite polarity.
Channel swapping also corrects reversed left and right routing or lets you select the stereo orientation that works best within the mix.
Adjust stereo width to create a narrower, more focused signal or enhance the spatial size of suitable material. Balance and gain controls correct uneven levels between the left and right channels without requiring additional utility plugins.
These controls also make stereoAligner2 useful for creative stereo manipulation in music production, game audio and post-production.
The integrated goniometer provides a visual representation of the stereo field. It helps identify excessive width, phase cancellation, mono compatibility problems and unusual channel relationships.
A built-in peak meter monitors the output’s digital peak level, helping prevent clipping while making phase, gain and stereo adjustments.
All audio is processed using 64-bit double-precision calculations. This provides accurate timing, phase and gain manipulation while preserving the clarity and detail of the original recording.
