Are your mixes sounding a little too two-dimensional? I found a fix.
You know the struggle – you want that wide, immersive soundstage, but every time you reach for a standard stereo widener, your mix collapses the second you check it in mono. It turns into a muddy mess and you lose all your punch. It’s a workflow killer. But I just got my hands on YS Psycho, and this little plugin might just be the secret sauce your signal chain has been missing to get that width without the headache.
This isn’t just another generic chorus or delay. YS Psycho creates a psycho-acoustic effect based on frequency relativity between your channels. In plain English? It tricks the ear into hearing space and depth without destroying the integrity of your audio.
Here is why this plugin needs to be in your folder:
⚡ Pro Producer Tip: Widen The Top, Keep The Bottom
Don’t slap this on your sub-bass! Use YS Psycho on your hi-hats, shakers, or background pads. By widening the high-frequency elements and keeping your kick/bass dead center, you create a massive “contrast” in the mix that makes the whole track feel huge.
We don’t need to get too geeky, but here is what makes it run under the hood:
If you are tired of your mixes sounding flat and narrow, but you’re scared of phasing issues, YS Psycho is a no-brainer. It’s lightweight, it sits perfectly in the mix, and it solves a complex acoustic problem with a simple interface. Plus, it’s free. Go grab it and widen that soundstage.
