Mongoose is a mid-side processor that sums all frequencies below a selectable crossover to mono creating a mix that sounds natural in all environments.
Panning is one of our most powerful tools as mixing engineers but due to the fact that we have to create our mixes for multiple environments (headphones speakers etc) we are bound by how we can pan our instruments while still sounding natural on all of these playback systems.
Have you ever noticed that panning an instrument to one side sounds fine on loudspeakers but hurts your brain on headphones ? This is because in real life no sound goes into just one ear unless it’s coming from your ear (like headphones).
Mongoose fixes this problem by summing low frequencies to mono so that no matter how far you pan your instruments they will sound equally natural on both headphones and speakers. Take on Mongoose Keep in mind that our job as mixers is essentially the same as that of a magician: to create a satisfying illusion in the mind of the audience.
