How to determine if recording is STEREO vs. MONO?

Hi Group,

This has probably been discussed before but I have an audio rip of an older vhs tape and I'm suspecting it's only a mono recording but is there a way to tell for sure?


Thanks in advance,
Steve

The best way to hear it is using a headphone.

You can do a phase analysis of the two channels. If its true mone, the phase is the same.

One of these puppies will do it.

Goniometer

Basically, it displays the phase differences between the signals in each channel that Blakeeik mentions. I use LogicPro software for the Mac for audio recording and processing, and it has one of these meters. Interesting to see what's going on. Maybe other audio processing packages also have them.
