Parralele layering with a mono track ?

I'm starting to think this guy is just trolling now to be honest.

^Me too.

Is "Maamar Huq"

"XSTmusic" ?

Because if not, Maamar is just randomly posting. People shouldn't have 2 names in the same forum anyways.

I think Maamar's emoticons denote his amusement towards the OP.

no, different IP, email, date of birth etc....seems to be legit

Oh OK, my bad. Maamar's just being random I guess.

What instrument are you talking about doing this with? And if you did it already post a clip through dropbox.

I'm trolling ? Wtf is that ? Look if I ain't coming here to take a shit but more to talk about music and techniques. My questions are real and so are my ideas. Don't stain my threads saying I'm someone else or whatever, thank you.

You're welcome. Lighten up man. I already said "My bad".

Btw, to the one saying it narrows the stereo image;

yes I actually "process the mono track" because I duplicate it and end up with 2 mono track that I pan at about 33%R/33%L.

This says it all quite frankly.

TAKING TWO IDENTICAL MONO TRACKS AND PANNING THEM DOES NOT MAKE YOUR SOUND STEREO! IT JUST MAKES IT LOUDER MONO!

As has been already explained. Adding a mono track in the middle is no different to panning things more to the centre. The only exception would be if you're processing the mono track with compression/eq etc (and no, panning is not a form of processing)

after reading the latest explanation, i still cannot help but think there would be some sort of phase issues, considering your example was in the context of using guitar tracks.

most people here quad track, and that involves separate performances to prevent phasey seashell tones--i'm no theoritcal genius by any means, and it's not like i have any hardcore credentials when it comes to the recording game,

but if you're bouncing a wav of two guitar tracks down to one, and then reloading it back into the same project, you're doubling over performances that are exact replicas of themselves, and that's where my mind perceives their to be phase issues. Yes, this other track may be "lower in volume," but i still the phase coherency problems would still exist.
Maybe i'm still missing a ton of the points you're making here, but i feel that regardless this "close effect" you speak of going right down the middle (i.e. panned center) would be better executed by not using the same performances by copy/pasting.

I see a certain award in your future
