PSP's Stereo Enhancer and Stereo Controller are a great combination for controlling and locating the stereo location of whatever you run it through.

Usually the bassdrum and snare must be as mono as possible to make the drum
sound propa' in the mix, and no left-right panning allowed. For some experimental
bad sounding music - rules do not apply, so pan the kick hard left and the snare right.

The bassdrum's normally in the centre to deliver maximum power over both speakers, due to low frequencies requiring the most grunt. Same with the bassline. Also I believe it was so that the needle didn't jump out of the groove so much when using vinyl, too.

Exactly, and about Vinyl, everything below about 300hz must
be mono to avoid this needle jump-up jump-up and get down.
Also, it takes longer for low-frequencies to travel through the air,
what makes it harder to define the direction they're coming from.
