WideFire is an innovative audio widening plugin developed from a core feature of DarkFire, designed to create a natural and engaging wide stereo field while maintaining strong mono compatibility. It uniquely expands stereo space by processing the harmonics separately from the original signal, allowing it to generate stereo content even from mono sources. This approach delivers a wide, immersive sound without sacrificing clarity or introducing unwanted artifacts, making it ideal for enhancing vocals, guitars, synths, and other audio elements.

The plugin functions as an analogue-style saturator that applies saturation to the signal, detaches the added harmonics, applies a specialized widening algorithm, and then blends these harmonics back with the original audio. This method enriches the stereo image with depth and excitement, breathing new life into mixes. Its flexible and realistic graphical user interface offers a tactile experience with adjustable size options, ensuring ease of use across different screen setups.

WideFire delivers high audio fidelity through 64-bit internal processing and supports any sampling rate, including ultra-high resolutions. It features smart bypass to prevent clicks and latency issues during automation, as well as an intelligent sleep mode that conserves CPU resources by pausing processing when silence is detected. Users benefit from free, lifetime updates that keep the plugin compatible with the latest operating systems and digital audio workstations, ensuring longevity and continued performance.
