I've used the channel time delayer a bunch of times. I usually go slightly later on the right & slightly earlier on the left. There are a few things in this video that I've never used. Also, I never thought to go to the pin connectors to get rid of an effect on one side. That's pretty neat!
Channel Time Delayer is my fave plugin for a rhythm guitar, and no need to double track. It's great on backing vocals, too. Strings and Synths. I've even used on MIDI drum cymbals
I've found the free "Wider" plug-in from Polyverse/Infected Mushroom to be my favorite way to do this. It has a super easy to use with a single "width" control, is fully mono compatible, and free. I messed with various ways to do this using Reaper built-in FX, but once I discovered this, that's all I ever use. I believe it uses the method of panning different frequencies left and right like the MDA Pseudo-Stereo. Sounds especially good on pads.
Apart from being great tutorials these videos introduce many to the variety of JS plugins that come bundled with Reaper.. And just how versatile a combination of JS plugins can be.. Max respect for that bass line too..
Thanks Kenny; I can think of quite a few places to use these techniques. I do most of my panning in trim. It's a bit time consuming. I've found that I can emphasize some series of notes by giving them motion, and conversely, I can de-emphasize other series of notes by scattering them in the stereo field.
Great vid! I knew/have used most of these methods, but the ping-pong method and comb filter were new to me. Nice to hear all the options demonstrated like this!
Cool techniques! One more is to add stereo phase effect, like two phasers set differently, one per each channel (similar to your trick with a phaser on one channel). For this application I've enjoyed a Stereo Chorus from airwindows very much, that is released just recently. By the way when you say that you'll set the Ping Pong Pan frequency faster, you actually make it slower. It's not that important, though I think I should tell you
Using stereoizer or any other mono to stereo like MStereoSpread and some other melda plugins, izopte Doubler/Imager, Polyverse Wider or Voxengo Stereo Touch worth also being considered ! :)
I was a bit confused after dropping Sound Forge, as stereo widener in Reaper never worked as I wanted it to, thanks for introducing this channel time delayer plugin, dude
I did use this on a few tracks, and works well, but I have also a plugin from Fiedler Audio stage, which has an LFO in it, if you use this with creativity, it's an amazing extra effect, especially for vocals, I use it on background vocals. It brings more space in those tracks, same with the reaper plugins, you can use also an LFO on the SWS section. This is heavy stuff. Reaper learns me everyday more and more capabilities, which makes my workflow better and faster. Although I just cut a tip of the iceberg.
Great video, lots of useful information. My only critique, I shut the video off two hours ago, and I STILL hear the reverb from the room size 95. Shouldn't be anywhere close to that, it sounds terrible.
Nice One, its thnks to a few tricks like these (and others) That i dont use "stereo widener" plugins,there is no need for them, you just get better andd more creative results doing this "manually". It just takes a few extra seconds
Kenny.... Thank you for your hard won info. This MDA Pseudo-Stereo has done the trick for me. A question please. I have been thru the rainbow of bass recording and effects. Virtual and dif basses and amps.How do you get this incredible bass tone you are getting here on this lesson. This is what I need for an upcoming project. Please let me know!!!! Dave
The issue I have is I can pan left and hear sound, but if I pan right, I hear no sound. is there a way to make it where I can manually pan in any direction with a mono track or do I have to convert it to stereo? (I recorded using a mono mic)
You should specify that you're using FX to simulate a stereo sound for this, I'm trying to just send two mono tracks into a stereo bus and pulling my damn hair out trying to figure out how and I know it's dead simple.
Kenny, YOU are the reason I chose REAPER. Your tutorials are EXCELLENT!
Thanks
Same!

Thought I was gonna be bored - WRONG! Learnt lots as usual & became aware of some plugins I've not used. Cheers Kenny!
Three things that have no limit:
The Universe
Reaper
Kenny’s resourcefulness and imagination
I see you explained my request on Pseudo Stereo . I appreciate that . Now I lerned there are others plugings to use. Thanks Kenny.
Channel Time Delayer is my fave plugin for a rhythm guitar, and no need to double track. It's great on backing vocals, too. Strings and Synths. I've even used on MIDI drum cymbals
Loving that bass groove, the slide makes it.... Boom boom ba boom... Baow

Been working with fx for 6 years, and I learned more from this video than anything else.

Fabulously musical way to do it. Nice one, Kenny!
I use readelay the same way you use the channel time delayer. I just turn the musical length to 0 and adjust the length ms to my liking. Awesome vid!
Awesomeness Kenny, thank you 🙏🏼 Plenty of places I can think of using any one of those. Most appreciative of the before and after breakdown.
Great and simple techniques to improve our mono tracks, nice tutorial. Thanks 😀

Sweeping all-pass filters with different rates on left and right channels using parameter modulation can yield some cool effects, too.
Cool. Lots of stuff I never tried. I find I need this kind if thing a lot. I even like to go from mono to stereo for different parts of the song.
Kenny with the face behind the voice and the brains. Best Reaper content proven time and time again.
Using stereoizer or any other mono to stereo like MStereoSpread and some other melda plugins, izopte Doubler/Imager, Polyverse Wider or Voxengo Stereo Touch worth also being considered ! :)
aah, timeless classics executed most tastefully and efficiently!
Man this is the first time I see your face. I've always only watched your "no-face" tutorials and bro.... this is shocking.
You're beautiful
Just get better and better! Thank you!
I was a bit confused after dropping Sound Forge, as stereo widener in Reaper never worked as I wanted it to, thanks for introducing this channel time delayer plugin, dude
Phase rotator with pins only connected on one side ;-) no comb filtering in mono, though the volume may drop, which may be a good thing!
Great stuff!!!
Thnx Kenny 😉🎼💙
Convincing ways to give the bass more room in the mix ...
I did use this on a few tracks, and works well, but I have also a plugin from Fiedler Audio stage, which has an LFO in it, if you use this with creativity, it's an amazing extra effect, especially for vocals, I use it on background vocals.

Excellent presentation Kenny ... learned a lot and opened some inches my horizons again ... keep those coming
Thanks Kenny 🍻❤️
oh man, this is my first your 2022 tut in 2023 and this BG is so lit >DDDDDDDD
You could also do a frequency split with crossovers and add effects to different bands separately.
This individual has a Doctorate in Reaper !!! I cannot imagine how !!!
Great video, lots of useful information. My only critique, I shut the video off two hours ago, and I STILL hear the reverb from the room size 95. Shouldn't be anywhere close to that, it sounds terrible.
this is such a top notch tutorial thank you!
I like the tutorial but I love the tune. Watched this earlier, just found myself humming it for the Xth time. Catchy 😁
You are the best! Thank you
You're a continuos source of information. Thanks a lot, you should be on payroll by all of us 😂.
Nice One, its thnks to a few tricks like these (and others) That i dont use "stereo widener" plugins,there is no need for them, you just get better andd more creative results doing this "manually". It just takes a few extra seconds
Kenny with the lecture
Dude is way sweeter than conveys :)
Thank you!!!!
also i like your song selection and a robot voice
Hey Kenny G, Im learning a lot from your vids. How do I schedule a session with you? I’m a beginner in mixing with Reaper.
Kenny.... Thank you for your hard won info. This MDA Pseudo-Stereo has done the trick for me.

When you realise your smart phone speaker is only mono. Better view this on the PC. 😁
I really like this track! Has it been released on any of the streaming services?
Here it is - th-cam.com/video/mnnq7HiMuWI/w-d-xo.html
@@REAPERMania -Thanks Kenny!
another one is stereo chorus
The issue I have is I can pan left and hear sound, but if I pan right, I hear no sound. is there a way to make it where I can manually pan in any direction with a mono track or do I have to convert it to stereo? (I recorded using a mono mic)
oh no mono, yes yes stereonesss
