Thanks for the info - it sounds like I ought to shrink the stereo width. Can I use Audacity to do that ? What effect or option is that under ?

hmm not sure if audacity has something for that. there are tons of plugins for that though. just make sure its not something that is adding delays or comb filters.. try the free one on this page
http://www.retrosampling.se/vst.htm.. the "stereo contractor." I havent used that one, but it looks promising.

I have a question about a specific VST that I'm using. It's called CVPiano GVI modeled

It seems to take high notes and pan them to the right, while low notes get panned to the left. The pan option is set on center though.
I don't want the high notes panned so hard to the right. What should I do?

a lot of piano synths and keyboards try to simulate the way a real piano is. When you are sitting at a piano the lower sounds are toward your left and the higher sounds toward your right, with the middle octave in the center. It is acceptable to leave it like this, but a reverb is usually necessary to make it gel. also, if the separation seems too much then there are tools you can use to shrink the stereo width. If there are really low (below 100hz) stereo sounds i would suggest using an eq to roll them off a little..

oh also. .remember.. there are really no real rules. just rules of thumb.. your ears are the best decider.. for stereo stuff.. a good set of headphones helps a lot.. the stereo field does not have to be completely mono in the bass and sub region. but it generally sounds wonky if it gets too wide.. USE YOUR EARS! wink
