JL- yes very true, also it will work at any suitable gain/cut so long as yo=

do this equally to both the LR elements you are putting into your decoder
plug. The levels of the M and the S signal you recover will not be the same=

level as they originally were, unless a unity gain Encode suited your
taste/needs, but the M will have no unwanted bits of S mixed in and the
converse will be true for the S.


that is-- when no adjustments to the stereo field are made.

JL - Absolutely NOT
Your original MS field recording can have its overall level and width
adjusted as you wish during the MS -LR conversion.
