Hey guys, I've been DJing for approx 8 years in all kinds of clubs and venues and I can only name one rig I've ever played on one that was in mono. The only reason it is set up in mono is that there is a fucking spaghetti of cables going into the back room where the amps are set up and no one knows quite where to plug things in properly (and I don't have the time during the day to go in and pull it apart and rewire it). So what happens is, if you run the rig in stereo, the left sub is dead, switch the mixer to mono and it comes alive! Hence the rig gets run in mono even though it sounds fuckin aweful. So, don't worry about it in the producing side of things. Do everything above the bass frequencies in stereo and if the club wants to run their rig in mono, all they have to do is flick a switch on the mixer and voila! you have mono :P
