Default Re: mono -> stereo. How to do it in PT?

“I want to give the vocal track a little spread. I can send it to a stereo bus, I can duplicate the track. But I want a single dual mono track. Why? Because I want to save tracks. Just a single track instead of two (bus or double track).“

As described earlier, that won’t give it more “spread.” In a nutshell, it’s “stereo” if there’s different information in the left channel than there is in the right channel. Even panning one hard left and one hard right isn’t going to give it any spread, it’s still going to sound like it!s coming from dead center. Offset one ever so slightly and you’ll get some left vs right definition, if that’s the effect you’re looking for.
