I have M/S no available in hardware (a custom build I had made), it such an eye opener being able to grab these channels and focus as required, you can do absolute wonders for a slightly knackered stereo image with little artefacts.

In a DAW that uses VSTs or AU plugins you can encode stereo sound from L/R into M/S and decode back again using the free Voxengo MSED plugin. Using REAPER's channel routing and this plugin it's pretty easy for me to set up mid/side processing but I didn't know I could do it until my most recent completed track where I used it in the mastering stage - I had a suggestion from a friend that I could use a harmonic exciter on the sides and it turned out it worked quite nicely. I'll definitely be trying this out in masters in future and using it in mixes where necessary, as it's quite handy for things like high passing the bass off the sides.

waves MS + EQ + S1 Imager will do this

you can set up an M/S matrix with utility / polarity reversal plugs and a couple of buses, no fancy plugs required

its one of those things that isnt very complicated but is hard to explain efficiently

it starts with the formula of M = L+R and S = L-R

i will attempt to explain this better later as if i try now it will be gobbledigook

the result is that you can put any plug you fancy on either the middle or the sides

there is also this:
