What the pros are saying

Damien Lewis

Spread goes far beyond the speakers in a way that no other stereo imager does. The added multiband functionality makes it the perfect tool for automating on busses.

Four bands and four controls

Use smooth crossovers to target the exact part of the spectrum you want to place.

High-precision stereo control

Center the bass, focus the mids, and widen the highs independently.

Mid/Side or Haas
