Subject:Re: Stereo vs. Mono

I agree that the audience won't notice the difference, especially in context. But you the player are the biggest beneficiary of stereo, and if stereo moves you more than mono, you can't discount that factor. The better you sound, the better you play....usually.

I'm finished the withdrawal stage after a few weeks of cutting down
from stereo to mono for my piano and synth sounds. They sound fine in
mono, no difference to the audience. I'm running organ sounds through
a Pro-145, so the "moving air" effect takes care of that for me,
onstage. But I think a good mono rotary sim, like the CX3 and Electro
sound fine to an audience, no difference. The players onstage get the
best 'psychoacoustic' effect from a leslie moving air - the audience
hears it in mono - if you're set up to be heard in the mix ;^) Wj
