SSL Fusion Stereo Image is a modelled stereo width processor from Solid State Logic that widens or narrows the side signal of a stereo mix, with a bass-frequency SPACE stage and a SHUFFLE control for adjusting it.

What SSL Fusion Stereo Image does
The processor separates the stereo signal into a sum (L+R) and a side component, and the WIDTH control raises or lowers the level of the side signal to widen or narrow the image. The concept traces back to the stereo invention of EMI engineer Alan Blumlein in 1931.
A polar sample plot vectorscope visualises the stereo image, SOLO SIDE auditions the side component on its own, and the M/S toggles place input and output meters into mid-side mode. Cross-platform preset management with an A/B system and built-in UNDO/REDO are included.
Key features
- WIDTH control. WIDTH raises or lowers the level of the side signal, which widens or narrows the stereo image of the input.
- SPACE and SHUFFLE. SPACE is a frequency-dependent width control that acts on the bass range, and SHUFFLE changes the frequency cut-off of the SPACE circuit.
- Vectorscope and solo. A polar sample plot vectorscope shows the stereo image, and SOLO SIDE lets the side component be auditioned by itself.
- Mid-side metering. The M/S toggles drop input and output meters into mid-side mode so the mid and side levels can be read directly.
- Stereo field circuit. The modelled mid-side processing circuit separates the signal into sum and side channels using a true-analogue technique.
Compatibility
The plugin is offered as VST3, VST2, AU and AAX for Windows 10 and macOS 11 in 64-bit builds, with native Apple Silicon support listed and activation through iLok.
