Fred,

The L-R to M-S process is the same as M-S to L-R, so if you have a converte=
r
box or sound editor which does this you have then best of both worlds.

L-R stereo is adjusted by pan pots which can narrow each signal to centre,=

but not expand the stereo image, but increasing the S signal in M-S will
widen the image but will also produce out of phase "stereo" effects which
may or may not be wanted.

M-S is often used with video cameras as you can easily retain the clean
directional S signal for mono use, discarding the S signal which often has =
a
360 degree pickup.
