PanBlur
Released — Version 1.0.0.
Spatial Blur for Panned Mono Sources
PanBlur is a spatial blur plug-in for mono sources that feel too fixed after panning. Instead of making a sound sit as a small point at one pan position, it softens the image so the source still belongs around that position, but feels less pinned and more spread out.
The latest release is v1.0.0. macOS and Windows VST3 downloads are available from this page.
What it does
- Softens the feeling of a mono source being locked to one exact pan point.
- Keeps the source around its pan location while giving the image a more blurred, less point-like shape.
- Works from a master insert concept, so multiple panned tracks can be softened together instead of inserting a spatial plug-in on every track.
- Designed for cases where ordinary panning feels too narrow or artificial, but full reverb or obvious widening is not the goal.
Concept
Point to Area
Turn a sharply positioned mono pan into a softer area around that position.
Master Insert
Treat multiple tracks together instead of managing one insert per source.
Subtle Space
Add image softness without turning the move into an obvious reverb or special effect.
