Mono Sampling Help

Iight I always sample sh*t in Stereo (just my samples not drums for the most part)... I do this because it gives the sample a full sound and it just becomes easier to mix everything...

Well now I have this sample that I had to sample in Mono... Now when I play the beat back everything sounds all cluttered...

I tried doubling it up spread out left and right but then this leaves a big hole in my mix... If I push it slightyl left and slightly right it sounds even more cluttered...

So basically, I got this awesome sample that sounds like sh*t because it's completely cluttered in the mix...

Any suggestions or tips???

I mean should this be easy to fix in the mix down stages or what???

I have sampled in Mono before, but those samples were easy fixes.... I just spread the sample out left and right and put a delay on each one... When I do it with this sample it sounds ridiculously cluttered...

Thanks in advance for any tips given...

was the original sample in mono or stereo?

It could be a phasing issue, or that the sample was meant for that particular beat. Did you try Eqing it to complement the other sounds?

aural exciter and stereo phaser

The original Sample was Stereo, but the sound I wanted was only in the left stereo track... So I sampled just that...

What I was left with was an awesome guitar sample and a lot of reverb from the vocals being faded all the way right... Anyways the Guitar sample is nice, but it's boring now cause it's dead center in the mix...

Gives it this cluttered sound...

I have a Stereo Phaser... Not sure about an Aural Exciter... Thanks though nano...
