Uh oh.  I think I may have outlasted my usefulness here.  I understand everything you say here, Matt, but in my old age I cannot wrap my head around how this converts a mono return into stereo. Perhaps I will take up the recorder again and leave the complexities of synths to others.

Oh well. Its been fun.
