I've just tried koz's method, and pleased to say it works exactly as expected. When you work it all out, both methods do the same thing, which is to vary the amount of original Left and Right signal in each of the new Left and Right channels. It is very easy for koz's method to be implemented in har...

Hi Henrik, This is the Audacity users forum, we occasionally get developers drop by, but mostly this forum is inhabited by Audacity users.
