Stereo to Mono input conversion switch for Mono instruments like bass / kick / snare
*However, for mono signals (such as kick, snares, lead vocals or bass that should appear in the middle of a mix), it would be a waste to use Stereo L/R panned channels what would amount to two (2) required converters for a mono result.
