You can decrease stereo width by moving the panpots on L and R towards the center. This is equivalent to reducing the S gain of an M/S signal. To increase width you'd boost the S signal. That would correspond to turning the panpots beyond full L and R. > ... but it's more likely that you never experience that rare cases. Clearly you haven't. I've done a lot of recording using a main stereo pair (and any number of spot mics as required), and I've used some form of M/S processing on *almost all* of them. For example, in many cases I'd have preferred supercardioids for the main pair, but I only had cardioids available. A few dB gain on S turns those into supercardioids (with a slightly higher angle between them). Of course that's very different from the type of music that William is making, but if M/S based processing is useful for his workflow I don't see any reason why he shouldn't use it. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
