I believe I have done everything right, and to me, it sounds sweet..

My question is..

The left channel in the mix is the louder one when I introduce the side element..

Is this normal?



Thanks in advance
I'm glad you have posed this question because I'm getting the same thing. I've only just begun experimenting with m/s recording, so I also have no idea if this is normal.
