is there anything special i need to do to get two channels of the same mono
recording into a digital recorder?

will a simple y cable work from the outs of my preamp into the digital
recorder?

Likely(?) If you want a more precise answer, you will
need to describe the source and destination equipment in
a bit more detail.

Why would you need 2 tracks of a mono signal? In any event a "Y"
connector will do the job very nicely?

recording acoustic instrument with a single microphone into a microphone
preamp. the out of the preamp is at line level on a single xlr cable. i want
to go into a two track on both channels but i have a single input.

Your (unidentified) preamp has XLR, balanced, line-level output?
Your (unidentified) digital recorder has two XLR, balanced, line-
level inputs? Are these inputs terminating or "bridging"? Why do
you think you want to record an identical signal on two channels?
What is the point?

Might not be answering the question here, but why not just duplicate
the track after it is recorded?
