The IK Multimedia Quad Image - Multi-Band Stereo Imager Downloadutilizes a mid side matrix and stereo field processor to enable the user to adjust the stereo width of up to four separate frequency bands. This enables you to process part of a signal's frequency spectrum without influencing the other sounds within the spectrum.

The purpose of this process is fix technical problems in mixes such as when the relationship between the center (m) and sides (s) of the mix are misaligned. For example, the stereo width of the treble can be broadened without affecting the bass or the kick drum, which are usually kept in the middle of a mix. It can also be used as an effect to exaggerate the stereo width of a source such as synthesizer to make the track more interesting. Each band offers adjustable stereo width and gain. The software also allows you to select the slope of the frequency crossovers to reduce the influence of artifacts between bands.

In the user interface, a display indicates the gain level for each band as well as the overall left and right stereo output levels. The bands can be linked and each band can be soloed or bypassed to observe the effects of the image processing. A master bypass switch allows you to A/B the effect of the processing on the entire signal, and a reset switch can be used to restore the original settings.

The plug-in is fully compatible with native 32- and 64-bit applications on both Mac OS X (Universal Binary) and Windows (XP/Vista/7/8) computers. It supports VST, RTAS, AAX, and Audio Units plug-in formats. It can also be used with the T-RackS CS standalone application (sold separately).

Q: 5. Will this allow me to use an external XLR mic in Zoom? - or - Send a mic level feed to Zoom from a mix board.

A: The iRig Stream is an audio interface that allows you to connect the audio output from a mixer, keyboard, drum machine, or other line level audio to a Mac or Windows computer or to an iOS or Android mobile device. You can connect your microphone to a mixer and then connect the output from the mixer to the RCA input on the iRig Stream. The iRig Stream comes with three cables (USB Type-A, USB Type-C, and Lightning) to enable connection from the iRig's mini-DIN output to your computer or mobile device. It can be used for Zoom meetings.

Q: 10. I will the stream work for this situation I'm in. xlr mic TC-Helicon PerformV 2i2 Focusrite IRIg stream iOS(TikTok, livestream singing)?

A: There are better and simpler options for your setup. After coming out of the TC-Helicon Perform-V, instead of going into the Focusrite 2i2 and then into the iRig Stream (which has an RCA input for line level signal), a better option would be to go from the XLR output of the Perform-V to the XLR mic input of the iRig Pre HD (B&H # IKIRIGPREHD). The Perform-V has a mic level output and the Pre HD has a dedicated mic input and mic preamp. The Pre HD is an interface that will connect to your iOS device in the same manner as the Stream. It's not necessary to use two interfaces, so the 2i2 is not needed in the signal chain and all you will need is the mic, Performer-V, and Pre HD. You would also be able to connect the mic directly to the XLR input of the Pre HD if you do not want to use the Perform-V.
