How is mono copy different than summed if going out on the same line?Send one cable without changing settings, half stereo.
Have 2 copies of the exact same signal form a single output (left and right), mono copy.
Summed can phase cancel in certain situations.How is mono copy different than summed if going out on the same line?
Thanks for the reply!
That makes sense. Thanks!Summed can phase cancel in certain situations.
Summed takes the Left and Right signals and merges (sums) them together and presents the same (summed) signal to Left and Right.How is mono copy different than summed if going out on the same line?

If copy left to right copies the right signal how is that different than just playing the right signal?Summed takes the Left and Right signals and merges (sums) them together and presents the same (summed) signal to Left and Right.
Since they may well be different, this can cause phasing issues as Chris mentioned.
Copy L->R just replicates the Left signal to the Right. There's no possibility of phasing because both sides are identical.
Copying left to right means you have two mono signals exactly the same.If copy left to right copies the right signal how is that different than just playing the right signal?
Ah so it is basically the right being sent to L and R.Copying left to right means you have two mono signals exactly the same.
It's about where the signal/s are being sent to. In this case your sending two separate mono signals (Same signal) which is essentially splitting one signal to different receiving units.
To wrap your head around these options, think about where/what the physical outputs are being plugged into.
Which may be exactly what you want/need depending on where signal is going to.Ah so it is basically the right being sent to L and R.
Spontaneity half stereo? It seems that with stereo you could be missing some detail from the one side that is missing.
Gotcha, a use I don’t understand because I don’t know the need. Above my pay grade!Which may be exactly what you want/need depending on where signal is going to.
Not exactly, it is copying Left to Right... That's why it's called "Copy L->R"Ah so it is basically the right being sent to L and R.
Ok copy left to right so the right channel is identical to the left? How is that not playing the same side on both? My head hurts. No being a wise guy I just don’t understand the distinction. If one side is copied to the other how is that not playing one side on both channels. Is it a power thing for the signal? Maybe? Splitting one sides signal weakens it but if it is copied it retains full signal strength?Not exactly, it is copying Left to Right... That's why it's called "Copy L->R"![]()
Does the full wiki explanation help? Read entire page….Ok copy left to right so the right channel is identical to the left? How is that not playing the same side on both? My head hurts.
