SideMinder ZL2 the 2nd generation of our 3-band, Zero Latency Dynamic Stereo Width Maximizer with a gain core optimized for live use and zero latency monitoring applications. As with all SideMinder plugins, SideMinder ZL2 provides automatic stereo width limiting that can be used to increase (or decrease) the width of stereo mixes while remaining MONO COMPATIBLE. SideMinder ZL2 controls the stereo width dynamically to keep the signal wide at all times while preventing "overwide" negative correlation that can cause loss of content when mixed to mono. SideMinder ZL2 is not a compressor and will not alter the dynamics of the mix, only the stereo width.
SideMinder ZL2 provides up to 3 bands of independent stereo width enhancement and dynamic stereo width limiting with features including:
Zero processing latency.
Stereo width maximizing with "overwidth" limiters.
Mono/Stereo listen mode.
Pre/post process correlation metering.
Band Level Trim controls.
Master Level Trim control.
SideMinder ZL2 is recommended for use on stereo buses and final mixes in live sound and mixing and mastering applications where zero latency is required. For the most demanding mixing and mastering applications please see our SideMinder 2 and SideMinder ME2 plugins which utilize "lookahead" to anticipate signal corrections.
SideMinder ZL2 is a 64-bit plugin available as VST2, VST3 and AAX for Windows PC and VST2, VST3, AAX and AU formats for Mac OS 10.11+ on Intel and Apple Silicon.

SideMinder 2 is the 2nd generation mono-band dynamic stereo width maximizer that can increase the stereo width of a track, bus and/or master mix while limiting over-widening that can produce signal loss when mixed or played in mono.
SideMinder 2 uses latency-compensated FIR correlation detectors that "listen to" the incoming stereo signal and precisely and rapidly turn down the width when it detects the signal is going into negative correlation. Additional stages of filtering control the recovery speed of the width limiting action which is adjustable via the Release control.

SideMinder ME2 (Mastering Edition) is the 2nd generation multi-band "big brother" to the SideMinder Dynamic Stereo Width Maximizer. SideMinder ME2 can be used to increase (or decrease) the width of stereo mixes while remaining MONO COMPATIBLE via automatic stereo correlation limiting. SideMinder ME2 controls the stereo width dynamically to keep the signal wide at all times imparting an almost "3D" quality to the sound. SideMinder ME2 is not a compressor and will not alter the dynamics of the mix, only the stereo width. SideMinder ME2 does not add ambience effects to the sound but, rather, brings out the stereo information that already exists in the mix (i.e., SideMinder ME2 will not generate a stereo signal from a mono source).
