dime[ms]

bring-your-own-effects mid-side processor

dime[ms] gives you the ability to process the mid and side components of your audio as completely independent tracks.

what's more, instead of limiting you to a set of baked-in effects for processing, dime[ms] lets you use your very own VST3 and AU plugins, providing you instead with a novel way to make the most out of your existing plugin library.

A 7-day free trial is available.

features

• build your own effect chains: dime[ms] can host VST3 or AudioUnit plugins (regardless of whether you run it in VST3 or AudioUnit), and lets you chain up to 4 plugins in a chain to process the mid and side channels individually. it also embeds the UIs of each plugin inside its own, and passes through the sidechain signal to all the hosted plugins that support sidechain input.
• hosted parameter mappings: tweak your hosted plugins without needing to open the hosted plugins UIs, by mapping any of the hosted plugins' parameters to a set of sliders in dime[ms]'s interface.
• mid-side waveform visualizer: monitor the mid-side balance of the signal, thanks to the realtime waveform display.
• internal latency compensation: it goes without saying, dime[ms] handles the differences in latencies of the different plugin chains and compensates for them internally before joining the paths to provide a coherent, clean output.
• solo: monitor each split signal in isolation. very useful for fine-tuning and hearing what dime[ms] and its hosted plugins are doing to your input audio.
• balance and dry/wet: tweak the mid-side balance of your signal, and dial-in the overall effect of dime as needed through a global mix knob.
• dark/light mode: because it's 2025 :).
