You're right.. But.. If I adjust the balance solely of the S channel(s) and not the summed M and S, the imaging literally vanishes.. it just sounds mono..

I guess I get the flavour of the other mic I want by doing that tho, just not the width.

I do think it's to do with energy being stronger in the + (front of S mic) which is L when panned..

Maybe E.Q on one of the S channels would fix this.. I did try playing with it, but I don't want to do too much to the guitar, and make it sound unrealistically big/wide.



Hmmmmmmph :-/
