Hello,

Any votes as to what is the best sounding technique for getting a mono signal to have some width, if the event was not recorded in stereo? The Eventide H910? Plugins?

Thanks,

Sean B


what is the nature of the content?




I was thinking of isolated signals on a multitrack: vocals, guitars, etc.



Just leave them mono.

You can play games with delays within the Haas limit but it reduces the
overall power of the part and eats bandwidth.

I wrote a program that takes a mono .wav file and performs a
Hilbert transform on it. That gives out a constant 90 degree
phase shift in the right channel, relative to the left channel
( the output is 2 channels ).

I wouldn't use it on anything I cared about. It's kind of interesting,
but a mono track really works better.
