For this task you should set the basic width controller of the middle band to a higher value
(between 101 and 200).
More powerful bass by reducing the base width in the bass range
Set the base width controller of the bass band to mono. The setting of the lower separation
frequency is also significant for this task. Typical settings for this application are between
300 and 600 Hz. If the separation frequencies are higher, narrowing of the stereograph is
already audible depending on the properties of the audio material.
Verification and correction of a completed mix in the stereograph.
If you wish to check and perhaps correct the base width and the panorama setting in
various frequency ranges, you can take care of this task in all three bands as follows:
1. Activate "Solo" mode.
2. Open the phase correlator during real-time preview.
3. The base width can be estimated according to the amplitude of the display. The
horizontal amplitude increases in relation to the vertical amplitude as the base width
increases. The panorama setting can be verified by the gradient of the display. The display
tilts to the side of the stereo channel with the higher level.
4. If necessary you can now correct each channel with the panorama and base width
controllers.
Move a mono source in the panorama (mix direction)
The first step is to "filter out" the mono source (for example, vocals) so that the remaining
part of the mix remains unaffected.
1. Activate "Solo" mode here as well and select the solo switch of the middle band.
2. Alter both separation frequencies so that they just about register the source.
3. Now activate the "Direction pan" mode so that the panorama controller acts as a
direction mixer.
4. With the pan controller of the middle band you can now move the mono source. The
differential signal is retained.
5. If you deactivate "Solo" mode you can convince yourself of the effect of this frequency-
selective directional mix on the overall signal.
Dampening or removing the mono signal from the middle frequency range
For instance, if you want to create space for adding vocals or solo instruments in the
middle range of playbacks and drum loops, you can try to cancel out or dampen the
original mid signal in the mid range by enlarging the base width.
As in the last use case you should first attempt to "filter" out the mid signal well in solo
mode. The base width should then be set to the highest value (200) in the mid band.
