Mono for 'real-time' music should be very natural with good recorder/mic - if a single microphone's position can be put in a 'sweet spot' to obtain good balance between various sources and room envelope - it was done with success in the past and would be interesting for the amateur to execute nowOn many stereo albums, flipping to mono will sum certain info out of phase worsening timbre alteration - in the 1950's a lot of albums had full panning via switch with a vocal or even bass to one side
multitrack panned [fake] stereo was really good in the case of a few things like Jimi Hendrix 'Electric Ladyland' - it still can be a useful tool for music which is "assembled" piece-by-piece over time such as better rap examples - probably not so good for assembled 'classical'
5 7 channel doesn't make sense to me for acoustic music (Wendy Carlos would certainly disagree) - useful for steering efects within movie soundtracks
