Hello,
I would like to reproduce a sound coming "out" of the stereo field, like sometimes when watching tv we feel that sound coming "extra wide".  The source is mono.
Is this relative to phase?
Thank you.
Franck

I guess what you are describing as 'extra wide' can be created using phase shift, but you should also understand that this kind of phase shift cancels out when stereo is mixed to mono.  Getting mono-compatibe 'extra wide' sound usually requires some additional processing like delaying, chorusing, etc.

Thank you Aleksey,
It is only for a short effect in a song, something like few words coming suddenly "outside" the stereo field.

Of course, it is possible to get such effect with PHA-979, but the more your approach 180 degrees phase shift between channels, the less 'stereo compatible' your sound will be.
