Panorama Audio Labs, a company developing mastering tools for real-world mastering solutions, officially launches its debut mastering-grade stereo field plugin to the public.
After a month of eager anticipation, audio professionals, mastering engineers, producers, and mixers can access a first in mastering-grade stereo-field processing for shaping width, density, character, and air.
Panoramic is designed around a four-part parallel processor designed to enhance stereo depth and energy without relying on fragile phase tricks or delay-based widening.
Surrounding the 4-core processors are advanced feature sets that allow the engineer to develop more nuanced sonic characteristics for their stereo image in mastering.
Panoramic features
- 4-Core parallel processing modules
- Adjust the Width of a signal in parallel [PRL] or use it as a control [SRL] for the entire stereo signal.
- Density blends in parallel compression to the side signal only to help lift low-level details in the stereo field.
- Character blends in odd-order harmonic saturation to the side signal to add weight and energy to the stereo field.
- Use Steal [STEAL] to steal mid-channel-derived harmonics and introduce them to the stereo image for additional depth.
- Blend in excited high frequencies with AIR for brilliance/presence to the overall stereo field.
- [DS] a high-frequency dynamic EQ to manage excessive highs in the stereo field. Particularly useful for splashy cymbals or sibilant vocals in a mix.
- Implement the Elliptical filter [PRE] or [POST] processing to mono the low frequencies in a mix.
- [PRE] — Prevents low frequencies impacting the width, density, character and air modules. Use this for a cleaner sound.
- [POST] — Allows low frequencies to interact with core modules before being folded into mono.
- 2x & 4x oversampling.
- GUI scaling 75–125%.
- Tooltips on Hover via [?] button.
- Linked and unlinked I/O for gain staging.
- 0–200% mix blends.
Available in VST3, AU and AAX plugin formats for macOS, Panoramic is on sale for the launch price of $69 USD until September 18th, 2026 (regular $99 USD). Windows users can sign up for a waitlist to receive information about development.
