Export Stem Options changed in Studio One 7

[Wolfger]

Does anyone know, why they crippled the export stem options in v7?
It´s no longer possible to force instrument-tracks/channels to mono if the instrument is playing a mono sound.
Is this somehow related to the "we only can transform to audio and merge to new track in stereo" bug?
some really weird decisions in v7
v6

Curious about this. Is v7 no longer able to render a file in mono?

Sems to be the case, a new „Feature“ I guess.

I seem to remember someone stating that the effects are all in stereo, even if set to mono. The recommendation was to use stereo effects only in S1. I wonder if this is related.
