Stereo to Mid Side

Liam Florence's icon

Hello,

I am currently trying to design a system that externalizes the audio when played back over headphones- specifically for Hip Hop Music. To achieve this for one of the algorithms I have used the decorrelation patches from the HOA library. I am hoping to have the ability to import a stereo track and have it processed separately for mid and sides.

Currently I am splitting the audio in ProTools witha plug in then importing these two sound files but this is very tedious so I was wondering if there was a way I could easy modify the audio from stereo to mid side? Whether this may be splitting it to left and right and then doing the appropriate encoding from there or other means?

Thank you,

Liam

There's an example patch called ms-matrix that comes with Max, too.

Thank you very much for both replies- helped massively. Don't suppose either of you know how I could also strip a stereo track to Left and Right channels too?
