Making a mono guitar into a stereo one.

[allbaldo]

Thanks for all the responses! I'll consider these. My first thought was something that would emulate MS stereo, though my experiments haven't yielded what I'd hoped. If he had tracked a DI too, this would be a lot easier. I've had decent luck with that. I haven't tried doing a re-amp thing yet, since the sound is VERY overdriven, and I haven't had good luck re-amping overdriven sounds, but maybe I should try it again.

I'll try some of this, and report back.

Reamp throught a small PA instead of a guitar amp if things are already overdriven.

You can also try playing back through your monitor(s), mic'd stereo. Or just mic the monitor mono and then use the latency and recording chain (change of EQ, mebbe a little starved tube or compression) to thicken the sound as you use that recorded mic'd track in the mix as one side of the "stereo" guitar.

I'm just waiting for chorusing to become hip again.

i still love chorusing, but i haven't used it in over a decade on guitar...synths yes, guitars no.

some day!
