Is there a way to force a VST to output on both left and right? I have a cool synth I just loaded, but it's only playing on the left channel and I'd like to bounce it to the right also.

yes, but you will loose channel-spread/ panning
Use a stereo-matrix on your VSTs FX-page and send all left-signal to right, then they are identical

cool synth I just loaded

Not so great if it really only have one channel, but are you sure you havent botched a setting? Like:
* Pan in songeditor
* Ballance on the VST
* pan bars in piano-roll

What is the name of this 'cool' vst ?

Panning hard right in song editor mutes the track and VST has no balance control of its own. Output does appear to be only on left; your stereo matrix suggestion enabled playback in both channels, thank you for the suggestion.
VST is "StingerMax." What can I say, it sounds cool, even with the additional hoop to jump through to get stereo playback.
