I appreciate the thought behind that, but sometimes it's a little too much, like in the case of Abbey Road Reel ADT, where you are faced with numerous components for your "convenience":ĪDT 2V Mono-to-Stereo. Having a choice of components for a particular processor gives you the flexibility to choose the configuration best suited to your material.' "WaveShell technology enables us to split Waves processors into smaller plugins, which we call components. I was hoping the v10 Waves plugins would finally support sidechain inputs in Reason, but unfortunately they don't. The above is a simple and obvious example, but other effects like compressors, EQs, and reverbs could have unexpected differences when only the left channel is fed to a stereo version. This can be fixed by connecting the right output manually, so if you're going to use stereo effects on a mono track, it makes sense to always double-check the cabling. If I then insert a stereo H-Delay before the reverb:Įven though I inserted a stereo Waves plugin, Reason only auto-routes the left output from the H-Delay, which means I'll only hear half my Ping Pong. Reason routes both stereo outs from the reverb and converts the track to stereo, as expected. In the case of a mono track, the above is only true for stereo plugins IF the stereo Waves plugin is the last or only plugin in the chain, or is the first plugin inserted. That all makes sense.īut here's where you need to be careful.
When applying the mono H-Delay, presets that rely on stereo processing (like Ping Pong delay) are not available and can't be achieved, and the track remains mono. Reason auto-routes both stereo outs from the plugins, converting the track to stereo. Basically, I found no difference in the effect when using the Stereo or Mono/Stereo plugins. I did a simple test with a Subtractor (mono) and the Waves H-Delay plugin. The more important question, however, is do the mono and stereo versions affect the sound differently? That sort of makes sense, but I've never seen it confirmed. I read in some forum that the stereo versions use twice the processing power. a separate plugin? I have mono-to-mono versions, mono-to-stereo versions, stereo versions, lite versions, version 2's, etc. Is there anything special going on in the various mono version plugins that can't be achieved outside of the plugin? And why not just a switch vs.
