Are there any stand-along NSF players (or NSF playing emulators) that will let you set stereo panning?

There's NotSo Fatso, but it's a Winamp plugin, and since by default I'd rather use NSFPlug on account of its other features, it's a real pain to go in there and rename a DLL any time I want to switch. (If only NSFPlay still worked on Windows 7...)

I'm going to try that one cak!
Listening to NSFs in stereo is what I prefer, especially if there's VRC6 added! I'm really not bothered that it's not "authentic" in stereo...I get a lot more enjoyment out of the tunes when I can process them spatially.

You can also set Nestopia's audio settings to output stereo.

Another thing you CAN do, though, is install [url=http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx]Windows XP Mode onto your system (that way, you can run NSFPlay & other older Windows programs that wouldn't work otherwise). It's Microsoft's answer to Parallels for Macs (except that it's free).

Problem with XP Mode: It requires Windows 7 Pro, Enterprise, or Ultimate. This means that computers that ship with Windows 7 Home Premium (the grand majority) cannot install it without upgrading their copy of Windows 7; a very expensive proposition.

Shoots; good call on that. But again, there's still Virtual PC Without Windows XP Mode (that, you can use regardless of Windows 7 version). And otherwise, there are other alternatives (like [url=http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads]Sun VirtualBox).

How do you do panning with Nestopia? I see an option for stereo output, but only volume controls for the channels.

Oops... My bad; I didn't read the OP properly.

Setting stereo in Nestopia causes it to pan something like 25% left & 75% right. NSFLive's the way to go here.
