Hello :wink:

What plug-in to use to create such depth and space during mastering. Is it some kind of stereo?


Post

You've got the bass completely mono and dry, making it sound forward and in your face, and you've got some background sound that is almost completely reverb with no low-end, making it sound wide and pushed back into the mix. Snare and other synth sounds fall somewhere in between those two.

Also can hear the old trick (one I must admit I do like meself..) of having snare/clap and perhaps some other stuff through a delay, but the delayed signal being panned out very wide.

Probably a lot of mid/side eq-ing too to emphasise the side elements, as is the modern stylee.

Vocals are also center and panned left and right. Also lots of EQ and prolly auto tune in there.

Two cool free tools to use for huge stereo- Wider by Polyverse, and the Stereo snap in from Kilohearts. The former does add some artefacts to a sound but you can mono the low end, the latter is more a mid side gain control with no multi band option.

You will make the depth and width in production with sounds and then in mixing, rarely in mastering. Start with volume (in mono also first) and panning (in stereo) before using anything else, you'll soon notice the wideners etc. are rarely needed.

Agreed - it's all about how you produce and mix the track first of all. You have to create that width and depth in the track first before you think about enhancing anything during mastering.
