    Does Izotope offer any plugins and presets for mastering to vinyl that has some very important mono requirements? ie as Sam notes stereo bass elements are very detrimental to cutting a good disc. Allegedly vinyl hates it and will spit the stylus out of the groove if not done right.I've heard vinyl plants ask bass below 150htz to be mono'd. How would we go about that? Maybe Ozone has something? I've just looked in the presets and see nothing marked vinyl.

    Amazing explanation, also I own the Presonus 26x32 as well and had no clue that the mono button was used for this. 😅

    When should you use the stereoize button? It seems like you can still spread without using it. Please give me a good explanation

    Are we really supposed to care about idiots that listen to their mobile phone speaker or people in clubs if our target audience will listen on their Hi Fi system in stereo rather than inferior mono? I think you should have made this point clear. To listen to stereo through headphones or well positioned speakers is a delight. Its similar how talking to someone over a telephone or even Skype is far superior to text messages. Modernity is often a step backwards.
