What people use it for
- Podcasts and voice recordings
A voice does not need two sides, and the file gets smaller.
- Audio that plays in one ear only
A recording with the mic on one side now plays on both.
- Listening with one earbud
Nothing in the song disappears when one earbud is out.
- A single speaker
A one-channel speaker plays the full mix, including what was only on one side.
- Lessons and narrated videos
The voice sits in the center, the same on both sides.
Tips for a better result
- 01Listen before publishing music.
With music, the feeling of instruments on the left and right goes away. For voice, it makes no difference.
- 02Pair it with compression.
To make a podcast light, convert to mono and then use "Make an audio file smaller".
- 03WAV to keep editing.
If the audio is going into another program, save it as WAV to avoid quality loss.
- 04Sounds hollow?
Sometimes the two sides partly cancel each other when mixed. If the result sounds hollow, keep the stereo original.
Common questions
Why use mono?
Voice recordings do not need two sides, and the file comes out smaller. It also fixes audio that only plays in one ear.
Is anything lost?
The sound itself stays. What goes away is the feeling of instruments placed left and right.
