Stereo from a one-point source, which means that an image-processing plug-i=
n like Waves S1 can adjust the width just as well as having separate M and =
S. My argument against laying down MS files is that in the future when a te=
chnician accesses your files, it's quite likely they won't know it's MS and=
 it won't be decoded properly. No problem with an organization like the BBC=
 that uses MS as its normal workflow, but otherwise many, perhaps most, aud=
io people don't understand it.
