mid-side processing is a powerful tool to clean up your sounds while still preserving their natural qualities. for example, when compressing is too repressive but your dynamics are too wild, processing the mids heavily while leaving the sides more free (or vice-versa) can give you necessary control & at the same time enviable subtlety. this balance is not unlike multiband processing - applying effects only where they're needed so you can be extremely liberal & still have a very open sound, almost like a more complicated & specific dry/wet.

these racks are designed to provide you with simple tools to do just that - have your cake & eat it too; control & subtlety. you can download all the devices here. below you'll find an explanation of each rack & an audio demo (recorded by evan of MAZ Blanko). each rack will turn on about halfway through the sample to give you an idea of its properties.
