Default Mid-Side plug-in?

I'd like to record some instruments using a mid-side mic setup, so I've been looking for some plug-ins to facilitate/automate this instead of having to duplicate the side track and flip the phase. I'm not looking for mastering type mid-side plug-ins like Waves Center.

So far I've found the Goodhertz plug-in and it does the trick, but are there any others?

Thanks.

Voxengo also has a free one that works well.

But - what about “duplicate the side track and flip the phase” – as well as panning the side channels 100% left and right” – as shown here:

Yes, thanks, that's the extra step I'm trying to avoid though. Editing 3 mono audio tracks after the fact is not something I want to do, and an m/s plug-in takes care of this so that you have only a single stereo track to deal with.

This is a job for lmgtfy. I've been using the free goodhertz plugin too, but I now see voxengo has a free one, MSED, with a few extra features. So I'll be trying that.

Google was my first stop, but less than half the ones suggested in this thread showed up. Funny, after looking at all of them, the one I first came across from Goodhertz I like the best, so sticking with that. Thanks for all the help everyone.
