Topic: Curious about MONO feature of models
I often play live through a mono amp. And I often create audio that will be played on devices with one speaker. A lack of mono-compatibility remains a major problem for many sample-based piano sounds.
That is why I was so pleased that Modartt overtly included a mono-setting.
Pianoteq's mono setting doesn't have the usual "horribles" in the middle range-- that are typical with stereo piano samples being summed to mono. (The distance between microphones is often related to the wavelengths of problem frequencies.) But I do still notice a slight tonal shift in the range around middle C with the mono setting on.
I am curious though whether these models are based on typical stereo recordings with the usual phase discrepancies between channels. And if so, how did Modartt correct the phase distortion?
I'm wondering if Modartt might consider creating either: models based on Mid-Side recordings, OR maybe a few nice models that are specifically designed to be pure mono models.
