SMART TRACK DELAY 1.0.1
Windows 64-bit VST3
By Andrea Di Tella
https://www.andreaditella.com

Smart Track Delay lets you adjust the timing and level of the left and right
channels independently. Use small timing differences to give instruments a
wider stereo image, or adjust the balance between the two channels.

The plugin is free to use with no limitations. If you would like to support
its development, you can make an optional donation of any amount:

INSTALLATION / UPDATE
1. Close your DAW and any other application using the plugin.
2. Extract this ZIP archive.
3. Copy the complete SmartTrackDelay.vst3 folder into:
   C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3
4. When updating, replace the existing SmartTrackDelay.vst3 folder.
   Keep the Contents folder and all its subfolders together. Do not copy
   only the file inside the bundle. Windows may request administrator access.
5. Open your DAW and rescan VST3 plugins if Smart Track Delay is not listed.
6. Insert Smart Track Delay on a stereo track or stereo bus/group.

REQUIREMENTS
- Windows 64-bit.
- An audio application that supports 64-bit VST3 effects.
- A stereo signal path. For a mono recording, route the source to a stereo
  track or stereo bus before inserting the plugin, as supported by your DAW.

CONTROLS
LEFT DELAY / RIGHT DELAY
Delay each channel by 0 to 100 milliseconds. At 0 ms, no delay is added.
The signal is shifted in time: the plugin does not add echoes or repeats.

LEFT LEVEL / RIGHT LEVEL
Adjust each channel independently from -60 dB to +6 dB.
At 0 dB, the channel level is unchanged.

Double-click a knob to reset it to zero.
Use the value field below a knob to enter a precise setting.
ABOUT displays product information and the website link.
DONATE opens the optional PayPal donation page.

QUICK START
1. Start with both delay controls at 0 ms and both levels at 0 dB.
2. Add a small delay to one channel and listen to the stereo image.
3. Adjust the two levels to balance the instrument in the mix.
4. Compare with bypass and check the result in mono as well as stereo.

Small timing offsets can create a sense of width. Larger offsets produce a
more noticeable separation. The effect depends on the source, so listen in
context and check mono playback for changes in tone or level.

VERSION 1.0.1
Windows compatibility update. The controls and audio processing are unchanged.
