Flux have designed this free plug-in to offer “super precise control of the stereo image”.
Stereo Tool offers controls for the input gain and individual pan for left and right channels, as well as a phase inversion switch on both channels.
Add to those individual controls a global stereo pan and stereo width controls and they have provided an excellent range of controls to make the correct adjustment to a stereo channel.
But that isn’t all; on the metering side they have provided a stereo audio ‘scope’ and PPM meters on both inputs and outputs as well as a phase correlation meter.
This will be a great tool for fixing a wide range of stereo problems as well as being able to use it creatively to position stereo tracks effectively in the stereo image on a mix.
I have found in the past that having either individual pan control or a single balance control doesn’t enable me to position some sounds as I would like in a mix and when I have needed to correct a stereo track I haven’t had the right tool to get it the way I wanted it. Now with this free plug-in Flux have included all three types of stereo positioning controls, pan balance and width, as well as individual channel gain controls. Add to that a comprehensive metering section and this plug-in will be an excellent addition to my toolbox ad free too!

Seven radio producers – all based in the north of England – have joined forces to launch a new co-operative venture – ‘Radio Wizards’. It’s equally remarkable that their aim now is to work together on every kind of sound production... except radio!
"It’s taken over a year to get to this point," says ‘wizard’ Mike Thornton, "but now we’ve got a viable business plan, we’ve launched our website and we’re already starting to attract commissions. As a facilities provider we decided to facilitate this partnership and set them up with a web site to help kickstart this excellent partnership."
