Audio output from left channel only

My iPhone 5s (iOS 8.1.1) suddenly developed a problem with audio output last week after about 9 months of ownership. Through the headphone socket and Bluetooth streaming, only the left channel could be heard. I arranged an appointment at the Apple store and they confirmed after they carried out a restore (iOS 8.1.1) that there was only audio from the left channel. The phone was replaced under warranty.
My new phone was partially set-up in store and all I had to do was load my backup when I got home. I loaded the backup from my Mac and tested the audio output. To my surprise, the new phone had exactly the same problem as the one that was diagnosed as faulty in the Apple store i.e., audio output on the left channel only.  I contacted Apple support via chat and explained the issue. I was advised to test the new phone without my backup being loaded. I restored the phone and tested the output using both Bluetooth and the headphone socket and there was a stereo output as normal. I reloaded my backup and it returned to left channel audio only. I was advised to then reset the phone and this cleared the problem. Corrupt backup data??
What I can’t understand is that two phones exhibit an identical problem, with one being a hardware issue and the other apparently a software issue. Too much of a coincidence if you ask me.
Is it possible that an app could cause a problem leading to a hardware failure?

  • If I have audio coming from left channel. How do I make same audio Left and Right?

    Hi there,
    I've recorded  some footage with a mono mic and it recorded the audio on the left channel of the audio. In FCP. I placed this audio clip as a part of a multi-cam clip but the sound is only coming out the left. Is there a way to set this audio to mono or to make them play the same levels through the left and right channels?
    Thanks,
    Caleb

    Wow! 30 Seconds later, I figured it out. LOL
    Under Inspector for audio, you just click on channel configuration, click on channel and use "Dual Mono" mode. Thanks Caleb!

  • Stereo audio plays back left channel only - premiere pro CC2014

    Dear All,
    I recently upgraded to premiere pro CC and find that (just like sometimes in CS6) when i place an audio track (or clip with audio) to the timeline it plays back LEFT channel only. When I move the same clip to another (existing or newly created) sequence it becomes two channel stereo and plays back OK.
    The question is, since i created sequences with the very same audio settings, what might cause this issue.
    (fill right with left channel does not work because it IS a stereo track i suspect sg is wrong with my sequence settings- but i cannot figure out what exactly.)
    I hope it's not a bug and it is just me doing sg wrong. all input is highly appreciated! THX in advance!
    Misi

    I know i just happened to be mid-project when trial period ended...
    Still looking for the why's though, since I asked around and there ARE some people who expőerience similar issues!
    Thanks in advance (Ann, too)

  • Mono audio playing from left speaker only

    For websites who have mono recorded (single channel) podcasts, audio in firefox will only play from left speaker instead of picking center channel.
    If audio is downloaded and played on seprate dedicated player it defaults to center or if same site is played in IE also defaults to center.
    Stereo recorded podcasts have no issue.

    I assume that not a Flash player is used in this case, but that this is an issue with the (built-in) HTML5 media player and the audio tag is used.
    Is that correct?
    The Flash player should show the Flash context menu if you right-click the player area.

  • Stereo audio in left channel only.

    Hi,
    I have a strange problem with one of my projects.
    I have created a large number of "talking head" videos/projects. I export them to FLV using one of PREs default settings. For just one of these projects I get audio in the left channel only. All other clips are OK.
    When I play the clips on the timeline the audio is perfect in both channels. So somewhere in the rendering/output process I loose the right channel.
    What am I missing here?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi and thanks for all input.
    Yes I use a mono mic, but the camera puts the sound on both channels.
    When I play the timeline I hear the voice in both channels.
    The timeline audio track shows waveforms on both channels.
    Here is a pic of the timeline:
    The project is corrupt somehow. I just tried creating a new project with the same video files and made a short flv out of it and it comes out OK.
    I will try to redo this one which leads me to another question which I will post in another thread if not already answered.
    Thanks for your input.

  • My iPhone only outputs audio on the left channel.

    Randomly and without changing any settings, my iPhone has started only outputting the left channel of stereo audio, i.e. when I play a song on it I only hear it through the left channel. I've tried different sets of headphones, same story. Also it has stopped responding to volume changes via the inline remote - play/pause still works....
    What could be wrong??

    I am getting audio output from only my left earbud. However, the volume control mounted on the right channel cable is functioning fine. I plugged in another set of earbuds and they seem to work fine.
    Can anybody help? Or do I have to visit the Apple store for a replacement of earbuds?

  • Premiere Elements 13 (not Pro), recorded a video with mono mic input (left channel only), need to create 2-channel (left and right) audio track for finished product. Help?

    The question says it all. I have been all over the tutorials as well as the menus inside Premiere 13 and cannot find how to edit the audio track beyond basic balance, volume, etc.
    I can see the Audio 1 track, shows audio in left channel only, but it will not respond to attempts to select, cut/copy, paste, etc.
    Basically I just want to turn one-channel audio into two-channel audio.

    Sure you do not want to give the Fill Left and Fill Right another try?
    According to the Adobe document Adobe Premiere Elements Help | Effects reference
    Fill Left, Fill Right
    The Fill Left effect duplicates the left channel information of the audio clip and places it in the right channel, discarding the original clip’s right channel information. The Fill Right effect duplicates the right channel information and places it in the left channel, discarding the existing left channel information. For example, you might use this effect on footage shot with a monaural microphone plugged into only one channel of a camcorder, extending the voice of a speaker from one channel to both.
    From what you wrote, your Premiere Pro video seems to be saying the same.
    If that Premiere Elements Fill Left or Fill Right is no go, you might want to explore what you can do in this regard using the free audio editor Audacity.
    Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder
    And, then import the Audacity edited audio back into Premiere Elements project as source media.
    Is the speaker system OK?
    We will be watching for your results.
    Thanks for the follow up.

  • Multi channel audio outputs from a laptop such as 5.1 or 7.1

    is it possible to get multi channel audio outputs from a laptop such as 5.1 or 7.1 for watching Movies or television while using Windows media Center.

    Ok so i order to help anyone who is interested.
    The only ironic solution to this problem i found was to use a plugin called xto7 to convert the xml to the old fcp7 format.
    i then imported this into premiere pro.
    this was then able to export an OMF that when imported into logic 10 that was using the correct 6ch mono setting as separate tracks.
    Insane but it works until Apple fixes the incorrect meta data import in FCPX that sets the xml export to the default import that is always surround.
    this is the only way i was able to send stems with all the edit points and fades for the sound editor.
    If you don't have premiere lying around you maybe able to do it with fcp7 too we just didn't have it in this studio.
    Fingers crossed Apple fixes the fcpx xml export.

  • When I press 'Low Latency' button I only have audio coming through left channel ?!

    When I press 'Low Latency' button I only have audio coming through left channel  !?
    When you take it off 'Low Latency' mode the audio is fine and comes out Right and Left speaker.
    Can anyone please advise why this happening and how I can fix it ?

    I think Pancenter is trying to get you to read and understand the "Working in Low Latency" section of the manual as the results or problems with working in Low Latency mode are variable.
    This section, for instance:
    Note: The sound may change in Low Latency mode. Depending on the plug-ins in use, the changes can be anything from subtle to dramatic. If plug-ins being used do not exceed the total latency limit, there will be no audible difference.
    If it was me posting about this issue I would now come back with what exactly is inserted/bussed on the tracks because it could be an accumulative problem based on what plug-ins you have active and if they are on audio tracks (stereo or mono), instrument tracks etc. Lots of variables. The section of the manual quoted above won't give specific instances as any user could be using any combination of any amount of plug-ins.
    So more information is needed before anyone can help you any further.

  • I have a scarlett solo  usb mic interface that only records audio to the left channel in quicktime.

  • Can anybody out there help shed some light on why no audio output using varispeed tempo only

    Can anybody out there help shed some light on why no audio output using varispeed tempo only?
    I am using Logic Pro 9 and finding no problems using the tempo and pitch option but when I just want to vari the tempo only I loose all output.
    This includes no audio meter activity on channells.

    Another worthwhile time/pitch related product is from Prosoniq. The version of Nuendo (not the latest) the University uses ships with the MPEX algorithm, which is related to to their flagship product.
    http://www.prosoniq.com/www/TimeFactory_II.html
    I've used it a bit to create the double-time/+1 octave  Les Paul & Mary Ford guitar sound for a class demo demo and thought it did a very good job.
    Yes, there is a Demo.

  • Audio Plays on Left Speaker Only?

    When I recorded my footage, I had the audio running into my camera from an XLR cable connected to my shotgun mic. It was connected into input 1, which records the audio into the left channel.
    When I edit the footage in Final Cut, I delete the right channel, which has no audio, and I duplicate the left channel and drag it onto audio track 2. I then make audio track 1 and 2 a stereo pair. I do this for all of the clips and I then send the audio project to Soundtrack Pro.
    Once the project loads in Soundtrack Pro all I hear is the left channel and I'm unable to pan the audio to hear it from both speakers. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

    Ken,
    Check your Submix. Make sure it is set up as a Stereo output.

  • Audio output and left USB port is not working!

    Hi! I have MacBook Air 13" late 2010, Audio output and left USB port is not working!
    What happened?
    Part No.: Z0JH000TE RS

    If the left USB port doesnt work with an external mouse its seems to be a hardware malfunction of this USB port.
    The newest BIOS is already installed?
    Have you removed all USB ports from device manager and restarted your notebook?
    If you have already tried this, contact an authorized service provider. The guys can try to fix this issue and it should be covered by warranty, if you still have warranty on this notebook. :)

  • Simultaneous audio output from Ipad and bluetooth ?

    Is it possible to have simultaneous audio output from IPAD and a bluetooth speaker? At present I can only get audio from the Bluetooth Speaker and nothing from the IPAD's audio out! My purpose is that my Mom will hold the IPAD to listen to her Audiobooks but my Dad who sits across the room and is hard of hearing needs a speaker close to him, so I need simultaneous audio from both devices.

The speaker output on the iPad is pretty limited and your mother will probably have a hard time hearing it. Get a BT speaker for both and the above device and they both can listen from whatever location they want (within 40 feet) and get better sound.

  • No audio output from the orange mini j

    Hi all,
    I am having problem with my Audigy 4.
    Hope you know what I mean, there are three 3.5mm mini jacks
    of three different colors: green, black, and orange.
    I have noticed that there are audio outputs from the green and black mini jacks only, while the orange mini jack seems to be not working at all.
    When I plugged an earphone line to the orange mini jack,
    I could hardly hear any sound from it.
    Any idea?Message Edited by kwfine on 07--2007:03 AM

    The orange jack is the center/subwoofer audio jack. If you're using a 5. speaker system. Make sure you have selected 5. speaker setting in the speaker setup software.
