The mid-side (M-S) stereo recording technique puts the center of the soundstage (mid) in one channel and the side information in the other. These mid and side channels can be adjusted and reconfigured to accurately represent a conventional left and right stereo image (on their own, they do not give you a left/right image).

XY stereo set-up is a coincidence stereo technique using two cardioid microphones in the same point and angled at 90° to produce a stereo image. Theoretically, the two microphone capsules need to be at exactly the same point in space to avoid any phase problems due to the distance between the capsules.

Hi,

As i know, most of the USB audio interface in 2 channel input. But nowadays, there are a lot of USB audio interface or even a USB Mixer comes with more than 2 channel inputs. In this case, do it means c'ld recording in Multitrack like what Firewire Audio Interface did? or, it still a Master Stereo Channel on USB recording? Thanks for explaination with appreciation.

Whenever i record, and pan either hard left or hard right. It doesn't sound NEARLY as wide as music i listen to. Even with software synths...Why is this?

I own sm57s and an AKG perception 200, with a firestudio project.

Any help would be great.

I'm thinking of buying one of these 7720's for my mix bus but it only has XLR's in/out.
my zed r16 has 1/4 TRS inserts.

I'm sorry if this has been answered before but I could not find it searching the site or with google.

I know they are commonly used for effect insert loops, but can i use them to go from a single 1/4 headphone out port to left and right 1/4 jack using the said stereo y-cable?

thanks!

I was just playing around with a stereo imaging tool when I came upon something I don't really understand. When an instrument is dead center, presumably (Correct me if I'm wrong at any point), it sounds dead center because it is playing equal volumes out of each speaker, making the brain perceive it as center.

Where do you stand on the debate? Standard two channel stereo codec or joint stereo codec?
