Without a strong stereo image, your mix will struggle to achieve the. I hope this has made my reply a bit more clear. Lets face it, most mixes dont jump out of the speaker. It is very likely that this will cause a lack of mono compatibility. The reason I don't recommend the stereo width controls, is that they by nature induce phase/delay differences between the left and right channels. In this way, my nanokontrol knob acts as a full range panning knob, but using the stereo shaper in this way allows placement of a stereo signal without blending one channel into the other. I control these with another bank on my nanokontrol, with a formula which adjusts the two center faders (left and right channel volume) in opposite directions, and only at 0 db and below. On these I place a fruity stereo shaper plugin in the last plugin slot. Then I have eight mixer tracks dedicated to stereo use. With these I use the panning knobs controlled by one bank of my nanokontrol.

On my default template, I have begin with eight mixer tracks dedicated for mono signals, where I only route mono things, or things which I will make mono with a plugin. Remember, for the mixer track to be mono, there can not be any plugins loaded to it which will cause a difference between left and right, otherwise it becomes stereo. However, if a signal routed to the mixer track is true mono (in the case of FL, the left and right side are exactly the same) then you will not notice any problems with the pan knob, since combining one thing with the identical other thing will not cause phase or stereo issues. I have had this alone cause phase problems, even when the track is solo. For example, panning 100% left will cause the output of the mixer track to be the sum of the left and right of a stereo signal. The panning knob in the FL mixer works by combining one side into the other. This will have disastrous effects on the mix, by allowing masking of signals which should otherwise be separated in various ways. release times and steeper curves settings, the shape will.

I like to have my stereo separation 50 merge so that it doesnt contain any side/stereo signal.
