Hello there,
Can anyone out there describe what record companies were doing when they took older Mono recordings and .....
1) reprocessed or rechanneled for stereo
2) issued a "Duophonic" disc, usually Capital.
I think it was more than just putting bass on the left and treble on the right.
Please advise and thank you in advance for any information.

They are shifting phase: left channel is passed though an all-pass filter that realizes continuous phase shift from 0 to 90 degrees from low to high frequencies, right channel is from 0 to -90 degrees. So low frequency is in phase, high frequency is out-of phase, medium frequencies 90 degrees apart, resulting in a "fancy" pseudo-stereo effect.
Thank you both.
I have noticed that some duophinic sinatra releases were not that bad.
Does anyone know of a software program that can do that?????
