Mid-Side Technique. The mid-side technique is a two mic capture process that allows for stereo width to be adjusted when the audio is being edited in post processing. The basic premise uses a bi-directional side-oriented mic for ambient sounds that is mixed into a unidirectional mid mic for control over stereo width.
