Chapter 35: Precision K-Stereo Ambience Recovery

Configurations

Precision K-Stereo is optimized for use in stereo-in/stereo-out configurations.
However, ambience recovery is possible on monophonic source recordings
when the plug-in is used in a mono-in/stereo-out configuration. Mono signals
are “stereo-ized” in the MISO context.

Note:

Due to the inherent stereo nature of the ambience recovery process,

Precision K-Stereo is not intended for use in mono-in/mono-out configurations.

Presets

Precision K-Stereo includes factory presets designed by Bob Katz. A list of
these presets and their application notes are at the end of this chapter.

Precision K-Stereo Controls

Control

Arrangements

Precision K-Stereo controls are grouped into four sections: Ambience Recov-
ery, Ambience Filters (EQ), Mid/Side, and L/R Gain. The detailed control de-
scriptions are similarly grouped.

Switches

For the main switches (Recover, EQ, etc.), click the switch to toggle the setting.

Knobs

For the knob controls, values can be adjusted with the mouse or values can be
entered directly via text entry. Additionally, when the tickmarks and/or values
around the knob are clicked, the knob will jump to that setting. The “big
knobs” (Ambience Gain, Mid/Side Gain, and L/R Gain) can be returned to
the zero value by clicking the control label above the knobs.
