MonoAudio
by magistermaks
MonoAudio adds a single option that switches Minecraft's directional audio to mono, from the Music Audio settings.
What it does
Once the option is set, sounds stop being panned left or right, which can suit players with single-sided hearing loss or those who listen on one speaker. The mod adds a Mono choice to the Directional Audio button, so no separate menu is needed.
Key features
Mono directional audio
Adds a Mono value to the Directional Audio button in the Music Audio settings screen.
Disables stereo panning
Sounds in the world are no longer placed left or right when the Mono option is active.
No setup required
Works with default settings; the change is made in the game's own audio options and needs no configuration file.

What the author says
Adds a "Mono" option to the "Directional Audio" button in Music and Audio settings (refer to the gallery). By default the mod does nothing, you need to go to the minecraft audio settings and change "Directional Audio" to "Mono"!!
