The Frustrating Reality of Importing Audio
Artists and collaborators send you stereo files that may actually be dual mono.
- 1 Import the stereo file into your session
- 2 Check to see if it's actually dual mono
- 3 Split the stereo track to two mono tracks
- 4 Delete the duplicate channel
- 5 Pan the remaining one to the center
- 6 Repeat a million times.
What MonoMate Does
Scan
Drop a folder. MonoMate recursively scans every audio file — subfolders included.
Detect
Compares L/R channels sample-by-sample. Flags every file that's actually dual mono.
Convert
One click. All flagged files become true mono — metadata, bit depth, and sample rate preserved.
"I've noticed that a lot of my Tape Op reviews say, 'This will speed up my mixing process,' and many times these new apps and plug-ins certainly do help me work faster, but I can guarantee you that MonoMate will speed up the beginning of all my mix sessions... Less guesswork, less searching, less splitting to mono and deleting, and more time actually mixing. Thank you MonoMate!"

"Time is money and the last thing I need to do is spend 20 minutes per song stripping fake stereo back to the intended mono. Highly recommended."
