I don't think that I would use this on a final mix for a record or anything like that since I usually will leave that to the mastering engineer, but if I'm doing a home mastering job it's definitely something that I'll consider using. I like the clean sound quality that it projects, and I find that it does a great job of spreading a stereo sound. I don't find myself using the Flux Stereo Tool very often to be honest, but I have used it on more than a few occasions. It's hard to tell how well a plug-in will run on a certain system until actually trying it, so you've really got nothing to lose in downloading it and trying it out. I run Pro Tools LE 8 with a Digi 002 rack and I can't say that I've had any issues running the plug-in within this configuration. I'm running the plug-in on a Mac Book Pro that has a 2.2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 4 GB of RAM. I've only had a need to run a single instance of the Flux Stereo Tool within a single session, as it is the type of plug-in that I use on the master fader channel of a session.
There isn't all that much that you need to know about this plug-in, so I don't believe that the assistance of a manual will be necessary.
There is also metering in the form of a large graph and as well as for monitoring your phase and output levels.
The make up of the plug-in contains parameters for left and right channel input gain and panning, and it also has sliders for general pan and width. You can download it in RTAS, VST, or AU formats, making it compatible with just about any DAW, so this shouldn't be a problem either. The whole process of downloading it and installing it only took a short while, as I didn't encounter any problems at all. The Flux Stereo Tool is a free piece of software that is available as a free download in a number of different formats straight from Flux's website.
