Default Fascinating MS

Decoded MS and coincident cardioids are mathematically identical and they
are very close to interchangeable with top-grade microphones. As you get
to cheaper microphones that are less flat off-axis, the X-Y configuration
becomes more of an issue since the center of the soundstage is off-axis
on
both mikes.


In other words, coincident XY is the same as MS with the M and S about the
same gain, and also the XY can be converted back to an exactly equivalent
MS pair that can be manipulated just as if the original were MS (?).


LR and MS (sum and difference) are different packaging of the same
information as should be obvious from the simple mathematical operation that
converts one to the other.

Kind regards
