Using the MS decoder

When using MS mics to record, you have two decoding options.
You can decode the input sound as you record or you can record
as is and decode during playback. The following explanation uses
channels 1 and 2. If the mid-side mics are connected to channels 3
and 4, however, use the same procedures but substitute channels 3
for 1 and 4 for 2.

Decoding the input sound as you record

Connect MS mics to the 1/L connector and 2/R connector.
1.
Connect the mid mic to the 1/L connector and the side mic to
the 2/R connector.
Decoding cannot be conducted properly if the mid and side
mics are connected in reverse.
