what do you guys do when you record vocals? do you record in mono or stereo and is there a significant difference?

I think most of the difference comes in the mix really. If you want to pan/add effects and things like that, you have more flexibility with stereo.. but I usually record only in mono.

I sample in stereo. Everything else is mono. I use pans and effects to color the mix and create a final stereo mixed product.

vocals are a mono source...record them in mono.
mono=one
one microphone=mono

width or whatever is created by use of timebased effects (ie. reverbs or delays)
