> For me, the hassle of stereo (cost, setup time, tight space at venues) isn't worth it so I can hear stereo when I play.... Although, I saw your rack setup here in Boise, and it is no smaller than mine, which is true stereo. :) > and the audience probably doesn't care and aren't going to make sure they're sitting in the sweet spot regardless. But they do hear it and comment on it. I use stereo panning all of the time and people notice. Of course, they may not notice the subtle modulation of a stereo chorus (at least not consciously), but a radical pan from left to right with some cool filter effects can turn heads. Most of my lush, ambient VST effects have panning that is very noticeable. I understand your comment after seeing you play, however. I don't think your music requires any stereo panning tricks. > but in a theater sized venue the difference between true stereo and dual mono is really slight. It all depends on the degreee of application, of course. . Bands like Pink Floyd, and some psychedellic bands, etc...I've heard some serious panning at live arenas, small and large that was very noticeable and impressive. Even if you are in front of the left speaker stack, you can still hear the panning, it's just not perfectly balanced. Many years ago, I was the heavy metal band Ratt at a large arena. I was in front of the left speaker stack and all I heard was the lead guitar. When I walked to the other side, I heard the rhythm guitar. The sound guys had apparently done some panning, but probably not in a way that made the band sound good, because it was too extreme.
