Monitor MSX5

Monitor MSX5 is a headphone monitoring system with realistic monitor / speaker simulation.

While some classic "spatial processors" were developed for enhancement of music listened to on speakers, after a few years of research, we developed a new algorithm/system that is not working purely on the principles of basic spatial processing.

(spatial processing is an algorithm simulating the basic concept of listening on speakers where left channel is "copied" into right channel, attenuated, frequency distorted, and time delayed by a few milliseconds, equally for right channel)

G-Sonique Monitor MSX5 VST plug-in moves these basic spatial processing principles/algorithms forward and offers a comfortable and precise way of mixing on your headphones. (all used algorithms were fine-tuned for professional mixing purposes).

Features:

Monitors angle - this feature simulates angle of rotation of studio monitors/speakers towards your head/ears. In professional recording/mixing studios speakers are usually rotated 15 - 25 degrees.

Monitors distance - this feature simulates distance of monitors in room from your head/ears.

Center balance - by this knob you can attenuate level of phantom center to hear wider stereo signal

Main volume - control output volume of all system

Monitor/Speaker simulation:

(BASS)Woofer size - by this knob you can simulate the size of the bass woofer of your virtual monitoring system. Most of classic studio monitors do not have the biggest bass woofer so you can't hear deepest sub-basses 10 - 35 hz without additional sub-woofers. But this feature is often desirable because deep and massive bass can soften mid and harsh mid-treble frequencies. So if deepest sub-basses are not reproduced by smaller monitors you can hear more sharp, harsh and clear sounds as well as many problems in your mixes.

(TREBLE) Tweeter sharpness/Sound aggression - Many models of the popular Japanese studio monitors have a very sharp and precise treble sound. With this knob you can simulate this kind of extremely precise and sharpness sound of treble in four amounts. (min-max)
