The man behind Mooni DSP is Jevri Merdi, mixing & mastering engineer, producer, songwriter/composer, and vocalist from Indonesia. He collaborated with many Indonesian artists such as Tata Janeeta, Once Mekel, Liza Aditya, Maia Estianty, Rocket Baby, etc.

Mooni Wider is his first effect plugin and is a free filter and stereo widener/ enhancer plugin. Jevri says his plugin widens the stereo field of any track, plus the mix will be clearer with more dimension.

There’s a video demonstration but is in Malay. However, music is a universal language, so I am sure you’ll understand something:

There are three sections:

XY Filter control: LPF/HPF filter and panning with frequency control and solo LR control – adds color and dimension to your track.

Wide control: makes your stereo track either super wide or mono with auto gain control.

Analog VU meter: single analog VU meter with display control for input or output, plus gain adjustable with calibration control.

Mooni Wider is available in VST3 plugin format for Windows only. In order to install it, extract the ZIP file, then copy “Mooni_Wider.vst3” to “C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3”. The last step is to scan the plugin into your DAW.
