Stereo Imager

Overview

In this tutorial you'll meet the Stereo Imager, Composer's tool for setting how wide your mix feels — from collapsed to a point in the centre out to wider than the speakers. It reshapes the difference between your left and right channels, so it needs genuinely stereo material: a mono source, or a single centred voice, has no width for it to change. We'll open up a proper stereo mix and use the Correlation meter to keep it sounding right for everyone listening in mono. Let's dive in.
