Why is it that some tracks "Bounce to Clip" bounces to stereo, and some to mono?

I have several vocal tracks in this current project. When I "Bounce to Clip," some of the tracks bounces its clips to stereo and others to mono. How do I switch back and forth?

    Are there any FX on the tracks? Some FX are stereo and produce a stereo bounce.

    Track Fx should never affect a bounce to CLIP

    Any Clip Fx will of course bounce according to whatever's in the Clip Fx bin

    i have a similar issue..  dragging a mono clip into the media browser converts it to stereo... digging through tfm to see if this is a feature...

    Vocal tracks are mono in nature. Depending on how you process them is where you get some that are mono and some that are stereo. Effects play a role in this.
