Common stereo imager (typically using M/S decomposition) plugins can not retain stereo information of source singal. These plugins sometimes emphasizes side component of input signals, however, such processing easily breaks tonal balance and stereo eld of input singals.

In contrast to others, A.O.M. Stereo Imager D uses on correlation-based decomposition. This algorithm decomposes L/R inputs into L'/C/R'. The correlated component of both channels is mapped to C, the decorrelated components are mapped to L'/R'. The L' and R' components have no correlation, it means a true stereo.

Note: There can be a weak pre/post echo because of algorithm's restriction.

Feature Overview:

• Decorrelation-based Stereo Imager (not M/S decomposition)
• Auto Gain
• Phase Monitor
• Bypass
• Supports from 44.1kHz to 192kHz sample rate
• Supports up to 64bit floating-point I/O
• 64bit floating-point internal resolution
• Latency Compensation (If DAW supports)
• Compatible 32-bit VST interface on 32/64-bit Windows DAW

New in v1.5.3

• Soft-bypass support
• Fixed bug where the plugin tells a wrong version number to host.

New in v1.3.2

• Improvement: Performance +75%.
• Bug fix: Phase meter was horizontally mirrored.
• Improvement: GUI response (only for Windows version).
• Improvement: "A.O.M. News" function was disabled by default. (it makes plug-ins unstable in certain environments).
• Bug fix: GUI memory leak.

New in v1.3

• Phase Monitor
• Bypass
