is there some non-stupid technical reason why a bit crusher wouldn't take side channels?
(inb4 something else in your chain, cancelling, etc etc)- signal comes back as soon as the wet is pulled, mid is introduced etc etc.
i just tested with the other distortions (dirt and freak) as well as redux because duh: perfectly fine.

picrel. first utility on = no sound.
only second = sound.
idr the pan laws for ableton off the top of my head but panning works and isolating l/r = silence as well.

sorry it's time for bed and my autism was triggered when i heard it fuck something up (which is what led to choosing to split m/s in this rack and discovering this, of course.)

all plugins should come with a signal flow diagram and explanations this shit's so annooyinnnggg
