Re: Avid LoRo Downmixer
Side note: I was introduced to M/S production sound in Germany and I love it. They were mixing in LCRS on a lot of those films (mid-90s--there was still a format war going on in Europe for 5.1 or SDDS 7.1 so a lot of films just stuck with LCRS rather than paying for 4 film print masters), and the M/S dialog worked really well. I've mixed one movie (in 5.1) that recorded a stereo camera mic plus a mono boom and it took a little messing about with a delay to get the phase coherent, but it ended up giving me an M/S-like sound and downmixed just fine using Dolby Surround Tools. It's an extra hassle, especially since it's not commonplace, but the results are quite rewarding to my ear. Some day I'll convince a production mixer to use an MS boom mic.....
