Mono audio remains common not only in legacy recordings but also in modern live broadcasting and streaming scenarios. Sources such as crowd noise, sideline announcements, coaches’ instructions, and interviews often originate in mono, yet require transformation into a stereo format to enhance listener experience. This process is especially important when preparing audio for more immersive formats like 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound.

This VST, developed under license from DTS, offers a powerful solution for converting mono signals into rich, spatial stereo output. It allows precise positioning of mono elements within the stereo field, providing control over the width and spatial separation of individual sources. The plugin incorporates advanced correction technology to address common issues such as comb filtering, ensuring a clean and natural stereo image.

With adjustable parameters like width control and selectable mono/stereo crossover frequency, the tool enables fine-tuning of the stereo image to suit various production needs. It also supports further enhancement by converting stereo mixes into surround sound through DTS Neural Surround UpMix, making it ideal for broadcast and streaming professionals aiming to deliver immersive and engaging audio content.
