This professional audio AU and VST plugin implements a classic technique of transforming a monophonic track into spacious stereophonic track by means of mid/side coding technique.
Stereo Touch is most effective on monophonic sounds without overly sharp transients: it works great for both acoustic and electric/overdriven guitars, synthetic pad sounds and even vocals. ย By means of this plug-in you can easily get spacious and even โsurroundโ sounding tracks, without utilizing a double-tracked recording technique.
Basically, the plug-in takes a mono input signal and generates a stereo output signal. ย Plug-in can also work with multi-channel input signal, but in this case all channels get processed independently of each other like they are separate mono input signals, and then all resulting stereo streams get mixed together to produce a single stereo output signal.

Installation Instructions
For VST plug-ins on Windows platform:
You should unpack ZIP file you have downloaded into theย "VstPlugins" folder, the one which is connected with the audioย application you are using and where this application expectsย VST plug-ins to reside (it is also suggested to create theย "Voxengo" or "Voxengo64" for 64-bit plug-ins sub-folder there,ย and unpack the archive there instead of the main "VstPlugins"ย folder).
For VST/AudioUnit plug-ins on Mac OS X platform:
You should open the DMG disk image (which you already didย since you are reading this file) and drag & drop theย "component" (or "vst") package from it into the correspondingย plug-in folder located in the "/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/"ย folder on the harddisk (the "component" package should go toย the "/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/" folder while theย "vst" package should go to the "/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/"ย folder). Note that a direct link to this folder is presentย in the DMG archive.ย After this has been done you will need to order your audioย application to rescan plug-ins, or if that option is unavailableย you will need to re-start this application. Note that plug-insย cannot work without an audio application that hosts/loads them.
