I just finished all the yard work, and checked out the thread to see if there was any resolution. I pulled down the file, and my initial thought was that you were sending the track to a "mono" subgroup track where you can only pan left/right. That didn't turn out to be the case. It was...

What might have been more useful would be to post the folder with the RPP and two audio files of a non working setup. That way we could maybe dissect the routing an look for an issue. We've already proven that the technique worked with the two files.

Welcome to HR, Mike. Feel free to ask questions or add expertise and experiences. We're all here to learn, discuss and half fun.

Not an effect, it's a technique, as valid as X/Y, AB, ORTF, Blumlein, Near Coincident, or DIN.

That's the trick with M/S. The CAD is in figure 8 mode, and you copy the file to a second channel and invert it. Look at the picture of the Reaper setup I put above. You can see the two "side channel" tracks are inverted. Those are both the same file. If you talk into the right side...

I gave your track a listen, and it was absolutely fine. Compared to some of the US raps, it was more understandable than what I hear normally. Also, when I see "rap", I usually associate it with hip hop with little to no music, just a bunch of percussion with and maybe an occasional couple...

Sorry, that's where it is. That way I could confirm that the waveform was inverted, which shows in the picture. I shouldn't try to do things by memory! :unsure: Rob, I think the difference is in the mix between the M and S channels. The S channels by themselves are quite hollow...

Porterhouse, it was definitely stereo. I used my headphones and your voice moved from side to side. I took the same files and put them in Reaper and got the same result. Here's my mix, and the setting in Reaper. I inverted the file by going to Track Properties, and phase invert. This...

How to you get the files from your R16 to your DAW? I always just pull the SD card from my R24 and copy the files directly to the computer. I have never bothered with using the USB connection, but it shouldn't make a difference. I might try doing an M/S with my R24 later. I can't see...

Then leave your gain high and live with crummy distorted recordings. It's your choice.

Are you just doing voice over stuff? If so, why do you even need EQ APO? Turn it off, especially if you aren't 100% sure of what it's doing. The clue to the overload is those vertical lines that go to and from the crossover point. That indicates that the AD converter could not determine a...

I'm guessing you are massively overloading your interface. Looking at your waveforms, I've seen that pattern before where you get so far over 0dB that the converters go nuts and either invert or go to 0. It happened to me once before I could turn down the gain. Turn down your input...

I'm going to make an assumption here (maybe totally off base), but if the OP is getting a used PG58 then this is probably his first foray into recording and the cassette deck is already in the picture. Recording practice sessions could be for submission to a music teacher, or just to gauge...

If he's just recording his guitar practices, I think he'll be fine with just the mic and cable. I doubt that he'll be practicing more than a few feet away from the deck. Certainly not a football field away! Once he figures out that it would be cool to add multiple parts, then he can look...

You can plug the PG58 into the Sony but you will need to have an XLR to 1/4" adapter or cable. The PG58-QTR comes with the proper cable. It should be wired Pin 2 of the XLR to tip, and Pin 3 to the sleeve. The mic inputs of the Sony are low Impedance with a sensitivity of .25mV. The...
