Was just wondering what people do routing wise for taking a vst to route to a mono insert, I have some mono compressors I want to use in pipeline. Right now I’m just having to make a send to a mono buss and then routing that to my compressor but it’s annoying to have to use two channels. Is there a way to force a vst into mono. I know some vsts have both modes but most of my synths are always stereo, allot of times I just turn off effects and it’s a mono synth anyway. Was wondering if there is a better workflow then what I am doing. For my kick and bass I often set a hardware channel to mono so clearly studio one knows how to output a stereo to mono at some point, I assume it just throws away the side information when I do that.
