windows only, done with synthedit. One knob, it's late, tired. Used on master, overall mix is crisper somehow, although some bass goes away. No worries, use a bass boost EQ after to put back what gets taken out, and your bass is back and somehow clearer.

Hey Mike,

Mind getting a little more technical on what this plug is actually doing?

little more now that I'm a little more awake:

what it does for each of L and R:
  • 1- Splits everything at 333Hz with HP and LP filters set at that..

    2- Then, it splits the LP

    3- It inverts one half of that split LP.

    3- Then it delays that inverted LP a very tiny bit.

    4- Then it mixes (3) back in with the undelayed LP (2) *but criss crosses the channels* for the lows

    5- Then it mixes that which is mostly L back with itself, and that which is mostly R back with itself.

    6- Then it mixes ALL of that in with the original input signal, the wet/dry of that mix is controlled by the single knob.

Oh, so it's a Transmogrifier... why didn't you just say so? :wink:

:lol:

the net effect is that it cancels out some of the unwanted resonant bass/low mids in the middle, but not so you can't selective 'lift' the wanted bass back up into the mix with post EQ.

Seriously though that sounds really cool, kudos.
