This is probably gonna be the dumbest post ever posted here, but here goes!
I've been doing a lot of reading on this forum re peoples questions of stereo and mono patches and outs etc.
When guys want to play their AXE live in MONO instead of Stereo, a lot of answers to these questions have been: "simply create your patches in mono".
Does creating you patches in mono mean this below? (eg)
Compressor > Drive > Chorus (Analog mono) > Phaser (Mono) > Flanger (Mono) > Amp > Cab (Hi or Lo res Mono) > Delay (Analog Mono) > Reverb (mono)
then choosing OUTPUT 1 Mode Copy L/R or either SUM L/R Out L only to FOH desk?
So all the effects chosen in a patch are mono effects and the cab is mono and the output 1 mode in the I/O menu is changed from STEREO to Copy L/R or either SUM L/R?
Coz from what I've read, any stereo effects BEFORE a Cab get summed to mono (unless the cab is Stereo). So if you have a mono cab in the patch, does it matter if you choose mono effects or stereo effects before the cab as the stereo effects will sum to mono anyway?
Thanks for any replies.
