MID/SIDE PROCESSING AND STEREO WIDENING
OSL Side Effects is a versatile audio plugin that allows the stereo field to be manipulated in both subtle and creative ways.
It separates a stereo signal into Mid and Side channels which can be independently equalized, compressed, saturated, boosted, attenuated and panned using an intuitive processing chain.
This makes it possible to alter the width of a mix in ways that would be impossible using conventional stereo processing techniques.
