There are several plugins that can mono-ize the master output. SWH's
Matrix Spatializer should do the trick. Or I think Invada has a nice
plugin.
Once you've got the plugin inserted and set-up, you can just
middle-mouse-click on the plugin to toggle it on and off. ( Kevin in the
video didn't mention this)
Ardour3 has a mono button for this purpose...

In case there's anybody else reading this list who is as confused as I was:
The Matrix Spatialiser plugin (and others I'm sure, too) has no obvious way
to control its value through the gui when used in Ardour or Mixbus. There
is just a text label that says "Width" with a number next to it and no
obvious way to manipulate the number. At first I took the roundabout way
and used automation to alter the value. Then I had my genius moment of the
day and realized that right or left clicking on the number would increment
the value (use a control or shift modifier for bigger increments). For some
reason this plugin won't store presets but that's not a huge concern for me
since there is only one value to change.
I hope this helps make somebody's day easier.
