Schoeps releases their 'Double MS Tool' for free!
04.06.2007
Schoeps, a German legend in the field of professional microphone design, released a free VST Windows-only plug-in, that: "[...] enables customized and intuitive decoding of the three signals of the Double M/S system." Double M/S technique uses one Figure-of-8 and two (Front / Rear) Cardioid microphones for a three channel recording which can be later decoded to a 5.0 surround mix. You can get the plug-in here (requires registration). Don't forget to download the audio samples (or directly: Beethoven Piano Concert, and Ambience) kindly provided by Schoeps, as well as their Surround Brochure, and a PDF version of the Resolution 04/2007 article dedicated to the usage of the plug-in. Thank you, Schoeps! [source]
