USER INTERFACE - MAIN CONTROLS

Top row controls
INPUT: Controls the input gain and drive into the filter system. Higher settings introduce analog-style saturation and harmonic enhancement at the input stage, significantly affecting the overall character of the processing.
FM (Frequency Modulation): Adjusts the amount of frequency modulation applied to both filters, allowing for complex timbral changes, sideband generation, and aggressive sonic transformations.ADSR controls: The central ADSR section includes:
A (Attack): Controls the attack phase of the ADSR envelope, determining how quickly the modulation rises when triggered.
D (Decay): Sets the time for the ADSR envelope to fall from peak to sustain level after the attack phase completes.
S (Sustain): Determines the held level of the ADSR envelope while the trigger remains active.
R (Release): Controls how long the ADSR envelope takes to return to zero after the trigger ends.SPEED: Controls the frequency of the LFO from extremely slow modulation through typical LFO rates to audio-rate modulation, enabling both subtle movement and FM-like effects.
DEPTH: A bipolar control for LFO intensity. Center position provides no modulation, while turning right or left increases the modulation depth in different phase relationships, allowing complementary modulation of both filters.AM (Amplitude modulation): Controls the depth of amplitude modulation, creating tremolo, ring-modulation, and gating effects depending on settings.PAR<>SER: Controls the routing of the dual filter system. Fully left (PAR) processes audio through both filters in parallel, while fully right (SER) routes the output of Filter 1 into Filter 2 for serial processing. Intermediate settings blend between these configurations.BYP<>EFF: Controls the balance between the bypassed (dry) and processed (wet) signals. At center position, both signals are mixed equally, while fully left bypasses all processing, and fully right applies 100% effect.Switch controls
HI BOOST/HI CUT/NORMAL: A three-position switch that controls pre-filter equalization. HI BOOST enhances high frequencies before filtering for added brightness, NORMAL maintains a neutral frequency response, and HI CUT reduces high frequencies for a warmer character.SENSITRIG/NORMAL/LIMIT: A three-position switch controlling the trigger sensitivity for both AR and ADSR envelopes:
SENSITRIG: Increases trigger sensitivity for better response to quiet sources
NORMAL: Standard trigger sensitivity for most audio material
LIMIT: Reduces sensitivity to prevent false triggering with complex material+OCTAVE/NORMAL/+QUINT: A three-position switch for harmonic enhancement:

Sonic Spread

🎶 Welcome to Sonic Spread, a stereo utility plugin designed to enhance your stereo imaging and provide precise control over delay-based spatial effects. Sonic Spread is perfect for sound designers, music producers, and audio engineers who seek to add depth, width, and dimension to their mixes.🔊 This plugin excels at creating the Haas effect—a psychoacoustic phenomenon that enhances stereo imaging by introducing slight delays between the left and right channels. Additionally, Sonic Spread can emulate the classic Duophonic effect, popularized by Capitol Records in the 1960s. This effect simulates stereo sound from a mono source by splitting the signal into two channels, delaying one, and using frequency shaping. Specifically, bass frequencies are cut from one channel using a high-pass filter, while treble frequencies are cut from the other with a low-pass filter. This process creates an artificial stereo effect, which can be further enhanced with reverb and stereo echo.🎛️ Sonic Spread goes beyond basic stereo enhancement by offering precise control over multiple parameters such as delay, frequency filtering, volume adjustment, and pan positioning. Users can customize stereo width with dedicated controls for the mid and side channels, allowing for intricate balancing and mixing. Additionally, the built-in clipping protection ensures that no distortion occurs, making it suitable for both subtle enhancements and more aggressive stereo effects. Sonic Spread’s combination of these features makes it an indispensable tool for sound engineers aiming for professional-grade stereo imaging.
