Stereo Snare Effect Help

[Nexaka]

Hi, I'm sure there are alot of people out there asking about making DAT PHAT SNARE and all that. But what I want to know is a specific technique I hear in pony music, specifically a technique Omnipony uses. See, in alot of songs, the snare remains mono, however Omnipony's snare is stereo (least from what I can tell). Is this an illusion or is it purposly stereo. If it is stereo, how would one go about doing it and having it perfectly centered, cause when I tried it using stereo delay, it always sounds lop sided and annoying.

listen to the snare with stereo headphones in this song if you have no idea what I'm talking about: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inKCH26e-LU

If I undertsand this correctly then it should be as simple as using two diffrent (yet similar) snares sample each moderatly panned to either left or right channels.

Smh, that doesn't work either, it creates an effect of two differnt snares on each side, which just sounds strange, even if they're spot on exact same samples or close enough to exact samples. Thanks for helping though .

Maybe I don't quite understand what your op said but let me try to clarify what I meant. When your panning the two snares don't pan them 100% to the side, start at ~20% and keep working up until you like the result. You can also try a filtered reverb with a quick decay to give it more space or even use a washed out snare with its polarity reversed.

Hopefully someone can answer it well.

the tone is mono, the noise is a bit more stereo. I'd try layering a 909 snare tone (sine wave drop) with two panned noise generators. also, reverb

Ya'll are right, so right, I got it to work perfectly after a few tries, thanks so much for the help !
