Ok, the multitracks are interesting.
The early Beatles "stereo" were made before consoles
Had pan pots so they are not really mixes as Scott mentioned.
I happen to like that style but it is a matter of opinion.


Even if pan pots had existed, they'd still not have been made in 'stereo'.
Not enough multi-track tracks.


It only takes two to make stereo, you just have to use them right.

It sure is nice to have two tracks for a mono release, though, so you can
record the band and then use the second track to overdub the vocals.

When we got a 4-track Scully 280 we had so many tracks we didn't know what
to do with all of them.
