The 'rule break' panning is inspired from some vintage rock stereo mixing where the bass in not panned centre. There were technical reasons for putting the bass to centre on vinyl, which later prevailed. This soundstage was revived in some roots bands (Violent Femmes in 1980s, one of my all time favourite).
Regarding the use of the room stereo, yes!! I love it so much I may have overdone it. I love the envelopment it gives, but on further listening maybe the guitar solo has been drowned.
Ah ah now I understand. I immediately recycled the ravishing term with my (Brit) colleagues. Gained some laughs. What would be the chalkboard definition for the -6 we had here in Switzerland this morning?
Always a good chance like in this case to revise some glories. Violent Femmes will become part of my collection soon...
cheers
