Well, depending on how the tool works there is usually a "Pan" setting. On a mono track it defaults to the middle (equal left and right) but on a stereo track it defaults to the left being panned full left and the right is panned full right. So if you can find where the pan setting is on the

Your mono tracks might render as stereo if you start adding effects like a stereo reverb or the like. The "dry" source would start as a mono track though. Hope it works out for you. Another trick some folks use is a "click" track which is used to keep the beat between the different tracks. So
