    Of course we can.
    Here's a tutorial. Make sure to follow the steps in order:

    1) Download SK Krowka
    2) Install it
    3) Turn the knobs

    Et VOILÀ !

    Of course. Create a clean allpass filter and then change the routing from serial to parallel. The output gain of the allpass is equal to the amount knob in Krowka (but keep in mind that the allpassed version should be quieter than the dry one). You can also fine tune by regulating the Q, putting some non-linearity, modulating stuff with envelope followers and more...
    Imho it's not worth the hassle, just use Krowka, it's free. A Volcano preset could be a power version, but in my personal experience when stuff becomes too tweaky i tend to get results that are for the worse, not the better

    SK Krowka is a mid/side process. Joint processing should be applied to the sum and difference of the left and right channels if you want to obtain a perfect null test.

    Thanks for these, going to give them both a try in the next few mixes and see how I get on. Loved the stories btw, intrigued me and I'm now looking forward to using them. Wish me luck =]

    Just to clarify, I wasn't saying they look bad at all. I actually don't care what the DAW or plugins look like as we're dealing with sound. It's just they look almost identical to some plugins I've seen made with that platform, so I was curious to know if that's what was used. That is not a bad thing.

    Again, no malice intended. Congrats on your project they seem to be going down well here.
