i was wonderring does anybody produce all their audio purely mono instead of stereo
from what i know from not panning my stuff in the past apposed to panning to spread the field...mono sounds thicker ...thereason why SP303/SP1200 and all the other mono pieces of equipment appear to have a 'phatter' sound to em?
exclusive mono?

Re: exclusive mono?
For a while I was all mono then I got mpc 1k, sp404 and an iPad and I could finally use stereo. I did this for a year or more and now I'm back to mono on the 505. You get different results with each and i don't think one sounds particularly better than the other.it all just depends on the samples.
Re: exclusive mono?
SP-303 sums to mono so yes.

usually mono, so save memory, but when recording back from tape, its nice to catch the stereo nuances and anomalies.

Re: exclusive mono?
Mono 4 life.
(But mostly cause I always forget to press 'stereo' before I sample.)

Re: exclusive mono?
I love stereo, no matter what SP I'm using. Usually, I may go mono on kicks and snares to save polyphony and also mono for bass. But for dusty LP samps and field recording samps I love the fullness of stereo.
