Anansi Mid/Side Mastering Router

v1.1

"Anansi” is an audio routing super-spider designed particularly for use in Reasons' Master Insert FX section. The Mid/Side section allows for splitting an incoming stereo single into two mono signals for separate processing and remerging them. Up to three stereo signals can be run through a one-switch Mono Check function to check mono compatibility. Additionally there are basic three-channel merger and splitter sections.

The downloadable User Guide includes several example presets Combinators compatible with Reason and Reason Essentials, plus several further examples using a number of additionally available Rack Extensions.
