A goniometer for Pulsar would be almost too good to be true. If it is does anyone know a software that could be used as one?

Subject: It's a pro tool!

For the not so devoted ones, goniometer is a necessity for pro audio mixing. It shows how the amplitude of the mix is distributed between -90 and 90 degrees of phase (meaning left and right). If your stereo field sounds muddy this thing should make good sounding mixes easier. Don't know if there is one for Pulsar, I've only seen it in Pro Tools.

Subject: goniometer for the german ones

I think he means what in german is called a "Korrelationsgradmesser". With this thing you can test the monocompatibility of your mix. Unfortunately I haven´t seen one for Pulsar jet.

Subject: korrelationsgradmesser

Hi !

If you are looking for a thing called a "korrelationsgradmesser", try http://www.steckenleiter.de/
There's a link on thr front page which will lead directly to
Steckenleiter's device.

Personally, I don't know what it's for, but hey, if that's what makes your world rock ;-)

Hope that is what you are looking for.

Cheers

Subject: Well, almost there..

The Steckenleiter's Correlationsgradmesser seems to measure the stereo width, not the actual distribution of the different phases (correct me if I'm wrong). This means that it doesn't show the possible gaps between the mono and the stereo phases, it shows only how wide the stereo phases go. The real thing is a half circle where mono is in the middle and stereo phases are on the left and the right. The different degrees of phase are drawn from the center to the periphery, the length of the line shows the amplitude of the specific phase.
