M-S decode to two-channel Stereo

During my last music performance project,my EX1was fed the sound in the M-S format. Is there a free codec (maybe even a Vegas plug-in), that I could use to decode it into proper L-R stereo?

Of course, I will be getting the finished audio from the sound engineer who recorded with me, but before I do, I'd like to be able to listen to a proper stereo sound while editing my project.

Easy to do in Vegas.

The sum of the stereo channels is the left channel.
The difference is the right channel.

If you want to email me a short sample I'll email you back the project.

No email here as yet. I sent you one as well, did you get it?

No I didn't get yours; I needed to resend mine as the original attachment was too big.

I'd like to thank Bob for showing me how simple converting from an M-S recording to stereo can be in Vegas...

Bob, you rock (as always)!
