Stereo Tool 7.72 + Plugin for Winamp

Stereo Tool 7.72 is an audio processing plugin for Winamp on Windows, designed to reduce volume differences between tracks and shape the overall sound of music playback. It suits listeners, hobby producers and radio users who want broadcast-style dynamics control, tonal adjustment and stereo processing.

Its processing chain includes a dual-band pre-limiter, 10-band compression and limiting, a 10-band clipper and a 10-band equalizer. A four-level output limiter, extra loudness processing and output low-pass and high-pass filters provide further control over level and frequency balance. These tools can help make a mixed collection of recordings more consistent when played back together.

Stereo enhancement lets you widen or narrow the image, while phase-shift correction addresses problems in recordings such as vinyl and tape transfers. Broadcast-focused options include FM pre-emphasis, FM stereo encoding and FM RDS encoding. Settings can also be changed through external scripts.

This version lists support for Windows XP, Vista, 7 and 8. It is identified as a Winamp plugin; VST support and direct compatibility with FL Studio or Ableton Live are not specified.
