| quote: | | After getting your basic panning done in stereo, it’s a great time to switch to mono to fine tune things. If you are looking for the “sweet” spot to put an instrument in the stereo field, do it in mono. As you make minor panning adjustments in mono, suddenly a clear spot will pop out at you. That is the spot! Mono reveals when an instrument is fighting for position or frequency much more easily. Try it! |
I'm not getting this part. I don't see how panning is going to make an instrument more clear if you are listening in mono. The only thing that might change is the volume depending on the pan law. |

| i pan drums in mono quite often and double check the whole mix as well. if it sounds good in mono it will sound even better in stereo |

I haven't actually tried fine tuning my panned sounds in mono. I've heard this advice before, and I'd have to try it out myself to see whether it's useful or not. I don't think you'd use the technique to make drastic panning changes between hard left and hard right, but potentially it's useful for slight changes which won't greatly change the artistic vision? |
