Just was curious when you split the stereo track to mono and invert it what is actually going on to create silence if it is a mono track Curiosity is good ;) The following explanation is not totally accurate but will hopefully get across the idea of what is happening.

What is "LO-FI technical"? Is it a plug-in of some sort, or another program, or what?
