I know the GS can produce stereo sound, and I know it only has a mono
output.

Does alot of programs support stereo sound?

And what exactly are you doing?  It's obvious it's more then making a
secondary jack for stereo, and I'd like to know what exactly your
doing, just for the learning factor.

Since a stereo demultiplexer simply puts all the even-numbered
Ensoniq channels on one side and all the odd-numbered channels on
the other side, any program that uses more than one oscillator will
produce stereo sound.

A smaller number of programs will have consciously assigned instruments
to even or odd oscillators to produce _intentional_ stereo sound.
