Crave Stereo Enhancer 是一款四频段立体声扩展器，专为精准控制、通透音质和可调节的单声道兼容性而设计，适用于单声道和立体声源。

精准立体声扩展：
基于精心设计的参数化立体声合成模型，两个独立参数可让您精确控制生成的合成立体声内容，从而避免传统扩展器常引入的不必要失真：

宽度 – 设置每个频段添加的合成侧向信息量；
扩散 – 塑造添加的立体声信息的密度和特性。
通过对整个频谱的扩散进行不同程度的调整，并将其与可控的宽度调整相结合，您可以创建适合任何素材的宽广、自然的立体声像。

瞬态完整性和控制：
凭借专用的瞬态处理功能，您可以在不削弱声音冲击力的情况下拓宽声音的主体：

瞬态分离 – 从扩展阶段去除瞬态，保留起音和清晰度；
多频段瞬态增强器 – 每个频段都包含独立的瞬态电平控制，可进行进一步的精细调整。
中频和侧向平衡：
每个频段均可独立控制：

中频电平 – 调整信号的中心分量；
侧向电平 – 调整立体声差分量。
每个频段的中置声道和侧置声道均使用分频网络进行相位校准，从而可以在不引入左右声道相位问题的情况下调整它们的平衡。

单声道兼容性
：每个频段的“单声道安全”控制功能用于管理处理后的信号在立体声和单声道之间的转换。它在中央、左声道和右声道分量之间应用频谱加权，而不是作为固定的单声道保护机制。100

% – 合并为单声道时保持中央声道频谱平衡。0
% – 保持左右声道频谱平衡。
中间值 – 按比例混合中央声道和立体声加权。
虽然 100% 单声道安全似乎总是最安全的选择，但事实并非如此。完美地保持中央声道可能会导致左右声道出现更大的音调偏差，这可能会影响混音期间的平衡决策，并降低声音合并为单声道后的自然度。相反，完全优先考虑左右声道可能会导致中央声道合并后的音调平衡与预期不同。

Mono-Safe 允许您自行选择平衡点，将单声道兼容性从固定规则转变为可控的、可控的选择，让您在实际混音场景中提升立体声宽度时更加自信。实践证明，我们发现将设置调整到中间位置可以获得最稳定的效果，而大多数立体声扩展器都无法让您实现这种平衡。

Crave Stereo Enhancer is a four-band stereo widener engineered for precision control, transparent sound, and adjustable mono compatibility for both mono and stereo sources.

Precision Stereo Widening
Built around a carefully designed parametric stereo synthesis model, two independent parameters give you precise control over the synthetic stereo content generated, helping you avoid the unwanted artifacts often introduced by traditional wideners:

Width – sets the amount of synthetic side information added per band.
Diffusion – shapes the density and character of the added stereo information.
By tailoring diffusion differently across the spectrum and combining it with controlled width adjustments, you can create a wide, natural stereo image that suits any material.

Transient Integrity and Control
Featuring dedicated transient processing, you can widen the body of the sound without softening its impact:

Transient separation – removes transients from the widening stage, preserving attack and articulation.
Multiband transient enhancer – each band includes independent transient level control for further refinement.
Mid and Side Balance
Each band provides independent control of:

Mid level – adjusts the center component of the signal.
Side level – adjusts the stereo difference component.
The mid and side channels in each band are phase aligned using a crossover network, allowing their balance to be adjusted without introducing phase issues in the left and right channels.

Mono Compatibility
Per-band Mono-Safe control manages how the processed signal translates between stereo and mono. It applies spectral weighting between center, left, and right components rather than acting as a fixed mono safeguard.

100% – preserves center spectral balance when summed to mono.
0% – preserves left and right spectral balance.
Intermediate values – blend center and stereo weighting proportionally.
While it may seem intuitive that 100% Mono-Safe would always be the safest option, this is not necessarily the case. Preserving the center channel perfectly can allow greater tonal deviation in the left and right channels, which may influence balance decisions during mixing and reduce how naturally the sound translates once summed to mono. Conversely, prioritizing the left and right channels entirely can cause the center to sum with a different tonal balance than expected.

By allowing you to choose where this balance lies, Mono-Safe turns mono compatibility into a controlled, intentional decision rather than a fixed rule, giving you greater confidence when pushing stereo width in real-world mix scenarios. In practice, we’ve found that landing somewhere in the middle produces the most consistent results, a balance that most stereo wideners simply don’t let you dial in.
