Default Recording from mono 3.5mm jack

Buy or make the standard "soundcard" cable. 3.5mm stereo plug to 2

It's a mono signal. There's no point in recording it in stereo.


I was hoping I could record in dual mono, in other words both L and R
have the same signal.

I know I can set the minidisc to record in mono using just one
channel. This means I'd have to leave one of the channels exposed.


Exposed to what?

I'd think it a fair bet that the mini-disk plays a mono recording on
both channels. If so, you're sorted.
