Title: Crossfeed
Post by: johnas on August 05, 2006, 10:55:55 am

Hi,
Does MC11.1 have crossfeed ability? I searched the forum and didn't find anything. I am looking for something similar to what I use with Foobar: http://www.naivesoftware.com/software.html

Thanks for any advice.

Not that I've heard of.... (Of course, that doesn't mean no.)

Jonas, AFAICT this is a DSP plugin which would need a plugin interface written specifically for MC.  If you are a programmer, I nominate you!  Otherwise, somebody needs to to the coding so you can use this with MC.

Failing that, I suggest you rummage through MC's native DSP studio.  The Naive website talks about a left-right delay to imitate a 60-degree speaker offset.  You can use "tools/options/playback/DSP-Output format/effects/surround field" to introduce such a delay.  I'm sure there are other aspects to the Naive approach, but you can use the DSP studio effects to get there, with trial and error.

It'd also be worth sending an email to Naive asking them to write an MC plugin.  MC has a very nice DSP plugin system, and it's easier to code for than many others. (it's all C++ and it doesn't require handling multiple sample types)

A simple stereo channel separation reducer for headphone listening would be a nice add. In my opinion a slider for that could be one of the standard DSP functions.

Is this something you could consider adding to MC12?
