Here's what I'm seeing:

M-S split, High Shelving on M and S, (when you turn one up, the other goes down) Low shelving on M and S, what appears to be a slow attack compressor on M-S, overall gain and gain on each side.

It seems like a completely redundant plugin. I wind up EQing M-S all the time, same with compressing...

This looks far more limited than some other solutions out there.

According to the http://www.gearslutz.com/board/new-p...es-center.html thread it doesn't use M/S at all, and it may be harder to find a replacement than you think.

Good luck.

I'm still skeptical that this isn't an MS processor. I'd be seriously impressed if someone developed a technology to deal with center that wasn't MS

I'm pretty sure I can whip something like this together in Reaktor. Everything but the "Punch" setting is pretty straight up, you boost the highs in the S, drop in M equally. Boost lows in M, drop in S.

Really it just looks like there's a lot of intermingled controls to create a simple UI.

It definitely is not M/S. It isolates the center a lot more. That's a good thing or a bad thing depending on the program material.

I'm sure it's based on the correlation between the two channels, not simply L+R as M/S matrixing would do. That is far more complicated.

I think Barton still owns the patent on the technic, but have no idea how Waves has implemented it.

I'd be interested, in case you build something like it for reaktor (or have built other interesting tools) :-)

There is a trifield plug-in made by AGM Digital Arts. Anthony Morris actually showed up one day at our studio in Sausalito looking for advice about marketing a tri field box. He's a very very bright man.
