Correlation?

Just wondering what it is, I am up at +1 to the right in the Logic Multimeter plug in?

Thats the phase correlation meter,
Roughly how it works is it measures how similar the audio signals on each output channel are. -1 reading is that the channels are the same but in opposite phase, 0 it they are completely different, +1 is that are both the same.
(i'm open to correction on that now...)

Ideally mixes should be in the 0 - +1 range.

Thats great I had no idea it was phase, thanks

Interesting tip here:

Note: As you apply greater multiband stereo widening or reverb width to your audio, the phase correlation will tend to draw more towards the left side, as the left and right channels will become "wider" or less similar.
