Fuse Audio ocelot upmixer 400pxAnalog-sounding plugins developer Fuse Audio Labs is announces availability of OCELOT Upmixer plugin that transforms mono sources into natural-sounding stereo signals by utilizing spectral diffusion technology to expand the soundstage while maintaining clarity and avoiding unwanted artifacts.

Effectively enhancing recordings by creating a balanced and dynamic stereo image, OCELOT Upmixer distributes the mono signal across the stereo field and frequency spectrum while preserving full mono compatibility. As a result, it provides a stereo effect that maintains the integrity of the original performance — whether used with single drum mics, backing vocals, or guitars.

The TUNE control adapts the processing to the character of any instrument or voice, with HIGH PASS and LOW PASS filters and a switchable DIFFUSE (diffusion) mode for additional tonal refinement. Readily designed to widen the sound without introducing artifacts such as metallic or hollow tones, it ensures a clean, phase-coherent stereo output.

OCELOT Upmixer easily integrates into any workflow with an intuitive parameter set including precision level and correlation metering alongside a vector scope to offer real-time feedback for balanced stereo processing. Thanks to its low CPU (Central Processing Unit) load and zero latency, efficient mixing in both studio and live environments is supported.

Says Fuse Audio Labs CEO Reimund Dratwa: “OCELOT Upmixer is all about bringing a natural sense of width and depth to mono sources without sacrificing phase integrity. It makes stereo enhancement both effortless and transparent, ensuring a mix stays true to its original character while gaining extra dimension.”

OCELOT Upmixer retails for $69.00 USD. More info at https://fuseaudiolabs.com/.
