If there is one widening type I'd love to eradicate and destroy, it's HAAS widening.
In my daily mixing work, I hear its disastrous results too often.

Let's learn about better mono again. This'll only take you a few minutes and hopefully help. 

Let's make mono great again!

great advice ! i used to widen with the ableton delay, putting off one side just a feew percent. Now i realize i was haasing all the time. thank you for making me a better person.

Loved the intro 🤣 Great video mate. I know some people might shout ‘shill!’ but I love product recommendations from trustworthy pros. Saves me a ton of time and potentially money on shit with great marketing!

haha :P that's almost the only widener I use! one can get its earlier version for free from Computer Music's plugin vault if they buy any issue of CM. There's also a free, more chorus-type widener, called Multiply by Acon Digital that is great. to boost any *existing* width, one can use any plugin that does that, e.g., Ableton Utility, Voxengo MSED etc…they dont *generate* width but can raise the level of existing width.

Agreed HAAS effect sucks ass! Been using Sidewidener since the first version what a great simple plugin! Fanu do you use much of ozone imager to add width say if you wanted to use it in multiband mode to avoid spreading the low end?

I don’t use Imager that much – sometimes though. I’ve often found that the stereo image it creates often leans on one side a bit. Even had a client mention that once. The wider you go, the more you may notice it. It has another mode too but it widens the transients too but most of the time I don’t do that.
