Sonsig ACE: Dimensional Expander and Stereo Width Plugin by Relab Development

ACE is designed to widen a mix without the comb filtering common to traditional chorus effects. Relab Development says the ENRICH parameter adds depth through a delay line design, expanding the stereo image as the value increases while keeping the core character of the sound.

The COLOR control modulates across frequencies to change the texture of the effect. The developer names modes including NATURAL, THICK and FAT, each giving a different tonal flavor. The plugin is intended to add thickness to sound sources while helping them hold up in mono.

The six hand-tuned LFOs are meant to keep the modulation locked in even at high settings, which Relab Development says helps avoid phase problems and syncing issues typical of standard chorus effects. Settings range from subtle stereo enhancement to swirling textures.

ACE ships with factory presets created by the developer. They are intended as starting points for mixing, and can be adjusted from there.
