I suppose the best to use it is what sounds right to you works. Not very helpful I know. Sorry about that.

All it does is essentially delay and attenuate one channel by a small amount. It plays with our psycho-acoustic perception. As a sound arrives from the side must pass through the head to the other ear. The head is about the same width as a complete wave cycle at 1.6 kHz. so all frequencies below this are delayed slightly (to create a different phase relationship) whilst all frequencies above it are attenuated (as they would have completed one wave cycle). This gives the illusion that the sound is coming more from our side rather than striaght ahead. To much processing and the ears do not hear one sound arriving from the side but two sounds, one in each ear (due to to much delay). This can be to much and would sound wierd!! You can create your own with a sample delay and a basic filter.

Not sure how this helps you use it correctly though!

Just play and listen, when it sounds good, print it!
