reamping stereo phase problem

well I have had success with this once... on one speaker was a uher m537 straight on the cone and the other speaker was a sm57 hanging down in front of the speaker...gave a nice stereo spread.... but with this synth its just not happening.... I mean...if I pan the sides maybe 30% it sounds pretty good but any more than that i just start to lose volume like crazy. I'm probably just going to leave it at 30% i guess.... but this part sounds WAY better in the mix after going through a speaker and a dynamic mic... so I am going to pursue this method until its as good as it gets i guess.

also, why would two mono sources be louder panned center than to the sides? the volume should be identical. what am I missing?
A lot there also depends upon the tupe of panning math the editor uses. It's not necessarily the same thing from editor to editor. Craig Anderton has an excellent article on this in his column on the EQ magazine website (www.eqmag.com).

i have heard a single guitar mic'd in stereo on MANY recordings...there has to be a way!!
Without hearing those recordings I could only guess, but my bet is that more times than not there was probably a simple delay with maybe a little differental EQ applied on top.

my bad!

I watched the Beatles Anthology and when they were talking about mixing in mono, not like mono from two speakers, but from one speaker above the desk, i was mesmerized. I want to live a mono life. MONO!! (it's convienent that i obviously don't have a grasp on stereo anyway...)
 
HAHA. might make my songs sound better too. (ok enough self-depracating humor for one thread).
