When you have all the levels set and you like the sound, go to File->Render to create a single file of your final mix. If you want to render to mp3, you'll need to download the lame_enc.dll (do a search for lame to find out how to do that)

One way to do it is record everything as mono and the pan the tracks left, centre or right as you like.

Reaper can mix and master, provided you know what you're doing.
