Manny Marroquin uses the Brainworx bx_hybrid. In a 2014 interview with Mix With The Masters (Q&A #9), at 5:04 , when asked what he uses for imaging, he mentions using a Brainworx hybrid.

"What I use across my stereo bus for imaging is the Brainworx hybrid. It's just taste. I don't like my mixes too wide, because then the centre information disappears. And I like punchy mixes too. It's a little bit of this, it's a bit of that. Make sure when you do anything with wideners/imaging spreaders that your centre stuff doesn't disappear with your bass, your kick, your snare, your vocal. All that stuff is going to impact your mix. Anything that's wide is going to give you texture, how big something is. Also remember that your punchiness will disappear every time you add something like that"

"So I use the hybrid. A lot of the times in pop music, a lot of these synths are so wide already, so I wouldn't use as much. If there's some type of width I'm looking for, I tend to go straight for the hybrid. There's a lot of plugins that can do that. I just happen to like the hybrid."
