I've just run into a curious problem:
I started out a session in Sonar using their drum sampler/midi sequencer for drums, then dumped all the stereo drums down to stereo pairs and imported those into SSL. That's the background...
Now I've noticed that the individual stereo drums, i.e. kick, snare, toms, et.al. are off by a few samples left to right...i.e. the kick level should be relatively even left to right, but they're not. I fixed this once before and know that I'm getting some phase cancellation which is affecting the meter output. I have done the whole... copy to two tracks, make mono, pan L-R, use JMS's latency compensator to adjust the number of sample points of the one side, then rebuild the stereo pair, then test mono..thing, so I know that this is the problem. Seems to be how Sonar2 implemented its export function. (bad design)
Short of a lot of work, I was thinking that a stereo version of JMS's latency compensator would be very helpful here. Something that allowed me to offset the left and right sides of a stereo pair independently as a plug-in.
Does anyone know if such a plug-in exists? I could really use it right now! :(
Thanks.
