StageOne 2 by Leapwing Audio is a stereo imaging effect that gives you deep control over width, depth, and balance. Its three-band design lets you shape the stereo field independently across lows, mids, and highs, using five algorithms: Width stretches off-center content beyond the speakers while preserving the phantom center; Depth adds directionally optimized reflections for a richer sense of space; Mono Spread turns mono sources into wide pseudo-stereo or pushes center content outward; Phase Recovery realigns out-of-phase material to avoid mono compatibility issues; and Center Gravity tilts the stereo image left or right. Ideal for electronic producers, mix engineers, and anyone working in FL Studio, Ableton, or Logic, StageOne 2 is perfect for widening synths, adding depth to vocals, and creating immersive soundscapes. The unique visualizer provides clear feedback as you sculpt your stereo field.
