The subject says it all. Is there any way to simulate it on FL Studio 6 or Cubase with any plug-in technique or VSTi?

Thanks,

Max

That's the first thing I found that made sense.

Welcome to kvr, maximg.

Anyone else here know a better suggestion?

I've looked at the issue of encoders (as in affordable) off and on for several years now with no good answers, I'm afraid.

you could always go for the hardware version of the same thing if you like to toss money into a big hole.
I've those installed in our HD truck and the encoder failed within 2 months with not a peep from the SRS about repair procedures or return.

Well, the thing I assume he's refering to is the Windows Media Player
WOW fx, which is one of those old-school phase-decoders that doesn't make
multichannel audio but simulated surround. There's lots of VSTs that do
that but I can't actually think of what to reccomend. Isn't it WaveArts that
makes the surround-like thing with 3D reverb in it? I've gotten to use that
before - I thought it was really great.

oops...
I've tryed some, I forget which, but have been more successful with tweaking the phase of signals after rendering to audio.
( I really want a way of encoding instead )

Hello Deaf!
What is implementation of Phaser to obtain a SRS-WOW simulation (dual-channel)?

If you read the discourse on how the SRS or Dolby Prologic encoders work, you approximate the encoding manually.

It's not an implememtaion of a phaser, just a manipulation of relative phase/levels between tracks. (delayed by so many samples)
I change, I listen, I change, I listen...
I only do this type of thing if:
A. The work requires it.
-or-
B. I'm bored silly and need a distraction.

I can't justify purchasing the SRS software but I might have to get the Dolby AC-3 encoder/decoder in the future (which is not the same thing at all, of course)

however, I did find this:

which I'll check out tonight.

SRS WOW simulation...is it possible?
