CONVERTING ST SAMPLES TO MONO

peeps tell de I something,, if i got a lot of stereo samples which eat up memory, particularly drum samples, if i convert them to mono, will i lose a great deal of quality

you do not loose quality, but if there is any panning in the stereo channels, you will loose the panning effect

best thing is, you separate the samples to mono and then compare the 2 mono sample and the original stereo sample. then choose the best one

sometimes mono sounds clearer than stereo

No, seeing that you are sampling you're not separating the channels on the piece being sampled. From my experience I have yet had a problem with quality. I do however sample in left mono 99.999% of the time as the left channel in the average recording holds most of the information. So I kind of always leaned to the left mono when I sample remembering that rule. But answering your question sample wise as a stereo meaning a fatter thicker recording Well that's my opinion not saying that I'm right but it's a good answer.

To make sure that you don't loose anything, convert your sample and listen separately to the two channels. Most of the percussions don't loose anything when converted.
You might find, like "blaze4me" said, that one channel contains more information, or that a certain sound, that you want or don't want, is only in one cannel. This is also a case in witch convertin a sound can be useful. On the opposite, in some case, mixing both channels into one mono can be useful, but you can't do it only with the MPC
