BRB-Xover Description

The BRB-Xover VST plugin will output in stereo ABOVE the cutoff frequency and outputs in mono BELOW the cutoff frequency. Why the hell would you want to do that? Because your ears are so close together. The lower the frequency of a signal, the longer the wavelength. The longer the wavelength, the harder it is to localise the sound source. We cannot efficiently localise low frequency audio signals if the signal wavelength is significantly larger than the distance between our ears. We localise sound in many ways but mainly by judging differences in timing and phase... If we hear a sound in the left ear slightly earlier than the right, we assume that the sound originates more from our left than our right. Due to the way the brain is wired up, we will favour stereo phase over amplitude differences when localising sounds. The brain is not used to recieving bass information in stereo. It feels odd to hear bass and subbass panned or with stereo delay, especially in headphones. BRB-Xover allows you to see how much of your 'phat bass' disapears in mono, tidy up the stereo image and create realistic spatial effects for headphones. You could even use it creatively, applying a gradual filter sweep from mono to stereo or vice versa. Multichannel Variations are available on request, this is the stereo (2 channel) release.
