Please add a selectable **Mid/Mono-only processing mode** for stereo tracks. When a centered mono lead vocal is used as the reference against a stereo music or vocal-effects bus, I want Resolve to reduce masking mainly in the Mid/[center](https://www.waves.com/plugins/center?utm_source=forum) while preserving the Side information and stereo width.

It would also be useful to have options for **Full Stereo, Mid Only, Sides Only, Left, and Right** processing. FabFilter Pro-Q 4 offers this type of control, and adding it to [Curves Resolve](https://www.waves.com/plugins/curves-resolve?utm_source=forum) would make the plugin much more flexible for vocal unmasking.

Waves S1 plugin does get bundled with a mid-side converter plugin that can easily enough be used for something like this. Though, I admit, it isn’t nearly anywhere as convenient as having the function built into the plugin as you suggest.
