Convert Mono into Stereo

I am using an older lapel mic and it records in the mono format (I think). On playback I am only receiving sound out of the left speaker. How can I convert this, using Soundtrack Pro, either into a dual mono format or into stereo with the end goal of getting sound out of the left and right speaker?

I have several audiobook mp3 files which only have left channel sound -- makes the volume too low when I play the iPod through the car stereo when driving.
Is there a way to convert to stereo by just replicating the left channel?
Thanks!
Edit > Preferences > General > Import Settings, Choose "MP3 Encoder" and "Custom." When the "Custom" selections come up, set "Channels" to "Stereo."
Now, highlight the track in your iTunes library, and use the command "Advanced > Create MP3 Version." This should create a new version in stereo. It will leave the original in place, so you now have two. Make sure to use the newer one in the car.
I have not tried this but it should work.

    whenever U open new message the cursor by default is on the address field on the top, after adding the recipient press the joy stick down, it automatically switches to Alpha mode with predicive text on. If you dont want predictive text just press "#" fast.
    There is one more way to do this, select "Menu" then go to "Settings" in the settings select "Phone" then in the Phone settings sub menu select "General" in the General setings scroll down to "Dictionary" press joy stick to switch it "On" or "Off".
    Hope this will help. If not there is always UR user manual Pls refer to it.

  • Mono into Stereo fill right doesn't work

    Hello,
    I am trying to convert a mono track into stereo. When I put the fill right effect on the whole audio track goes dead. There aren't any levels or any other remote signs of the audio. Is there a problem with it and what is the work around?

    Mono is one track of audio stream  ONLY so there is nothing to fill.
    When you use the Fill L/R Effect... it does not create a stereo effect from a mono track.
    It is designed to fill the left or right of a STEREO track with the respective audio as chosen.
    eg. Record into camera with  2  different levels of audio ( hi / low) and choose the best in the edit
    Essentially..the same audio is used on both stereo tracks.   ie result = same level, same quality, but no stereo effect.  Its just a Stereo track as 2 equal audio streams.

  • Converted mono to stereo

    I converted a left channel recording from imovie hd to both channels using quicktime. Now the audio track is way to long even though the size is the same. Format: Linear PCM Channels: Mono Rate: 48 (the rate decreases the size but it doesn't matter). Any ideas how to keep the audio the same length.

    I can't reproduce the problem with "Save as..." again, so the tracks switched from mono to stereo somewhere between the time I recorded them and by the time I was done tweaking their EQ and compression settings. I don't know how to delete or edit my discussion question above, sorry!

  • Converting Mono to Stereo

    Greetings All, I recorded an interview with a client, I mic'd him with a chorded lavalier mic that I had in my bag, I didn't realize til later that it had a mono plug... To make a long story short I would like to make this be heard in stereo (or 2 channels left/right) I have viewed some youtube videos on how to do it i.e. sending to soundtrack pro - converting stereo to mono using left & right channels. It seems to work just fine in soundtrack but it doesn't work in final cut pro. What am i doing wrong?
    Using Final Cut Studio 2

    Using a stereo mic rather than a mono one wouldn't make any difference when you're recording a single source of sound that doesn't move around. Do you really have a stereo capsule on a lavalier?  ONce clip is in FCP all you need to do, assuming you don't want the audio in the centre of the stereo image, is pan the audio towards the left or right to suit using controls in the viewer audio tab.

  • Making Mono into Stereo

    When I make a video, my recording equipment records in mono.  When I bring the video and audio into Premier Pro CS5, I want to duplicate the sound on the other channel thereby having a form of stereo.  In this way, the viewer, particularly if s/he views the video with headsets, will hear sound out of both ear pieces.  How can I copy a track that was recorded on, say, the left channel to also play out of the right channel?

    You don't have to do anything special. If you use a sequence that contains at least one mono source audio track (that will contain the audio from your footage) and a stereo master track (this is the default), your mono clip will play through both channels of the stereo sequence.
    This is what it will look like (notice the small speaker icons in the track headers):
    You can either set up a sequence manually by going to File > New > Sequence and specifying the number and type of tracks you want, or just drag one of your clips to the New Item button at the bottom of the Project Panel (looks like a dog-eared sheet of paper). This will set up a sequence that matches your footage--including audio track types--and create a stereo Master track. When you play the sequence back, you'll notice that both the left and right channels contain the mono audio of your source clip. You can use the Audio Mixer to pan back and forth, if you like, but there is nothing special you need to do to create pseudo-stereo from your mono clip.

  • How to convert mono to stereo audio

    I updated my software and now I cant seem convert audio recorded on a single channel mic to both channels with the new version of iMovie. I know with previous versions you could open the file in Quicktime, but the Quicktime software is also new and doesnt have the same options. Reverting back to iMovie 9 also doesnt seem to be an option. Any suggestions/advice??
    Thanks!

  • Turn mono into stereo?  Duplicate channels?

    I'm importing some old 8mm tapes and they come in with mono audio in only the left channel. I'd like to duplicate that audio onto the right channel, which I know can be done in PrePro but I can't find how to do it in Elements.
    Is it possible? Any work-arounds to make it happen?

    One thing that I probably should add, when creating 2-channel Audio, from a 1-channel Mono source is that a bit of spatial expansion can benefit the end Audio too. This can most easily be accomplished by using Duplicated 1-channel Mono sources, and then Panning one of those with a bias to the Left, and the other to the Right. This wil still not be true 2-channel Stereo, BUT it will "expand" the aural "stage" to the Left and to the Right, and even help create the "Phantom Center," that will exist in many true Stereo Streams.
    Audio engineers, such as Bob Carver (Phase Linear and Carver Audio) have spent years researching ways to expand the aural stage, to create the most realistic listening experience possible, and mainly from Stereo sources. In Carver's case, it was "Sonic Holography," which is still stunning today, even though we now commonly have 5.1 and 7.1 Audio in our home theaters. Though a 1-channel Mono Stream can never be true Stereo (or above), it can sound very good, with but a bit of work.
    Audio engineers can create a good facsimile  of a 5.1, or 7.1 recording, even when the original recordings were not done with 5, or 7 mics, as discrete Mono Streams. The faux-SS (Surround Sound), is accomplished with some Duplication of Audio Streams, a bit of Panning (balance), and Fading (here, biasing front to rear), then the application of a bit of Reverb and Delay. It just takes some tweaking, and some critical listening.

  • Turning mono into stereo

    I record interviews on my ipod with a Belkin recorder. When I put the file into garageband and select voice, the recording comes out on one channel, either left or right.
    When I put the same file into garageband as a guitar recording, it comes out stereo.
    How can I get the recording to come out on both channels?
    Ducker control is useless.

  • How to convert mono to stereo

    Hi there,
    I have a dialogue track that is mono (i.e: the audio appears only in the left channel). I have searched far and wide for help on how to do this in Soundbooth but haven't found great results. Also, I have found how to do the vice versa and how to do it on prmier, but that's not what I'm looking for. Does anyone have any solutions? :'(
    Cheers and thanks in advance,
    Nikhita

    I see this was asked a few weeks ago but in case it's helpful, I'll reply.
    I actually have just written an answer to anotehr question on editing spearate channels. The solution covers how to save to a mono file and do the reverse. Look at:

  • Capturing mono VHS footage, how do I convert audio to stereo?

    I am creating dvd's from some old VHS tapes, and the audio track is mono, I want to know how to convert audio to stereo? Do I start with the audio settings on Mono or stereo, and then what is the next step to get mono audio converted to stereo?
    As always thanks in advance for reading and replying to my post.

    Are you wanting to add a second channel of audio along side the mono track?
    Or, are you wanting to double the mon track into a faux-stereo track?
    Either way, DO start with a stereo track on your audio settings.
    But if your VHS audio is not split into two separate channels of sound, then there is no way to get true stereo.
    However, for a faux-stereo sound, try copying the original mono track, paste it to a second audio track then nudge just that track by one frame.
    Listen to it and if it doesn't give enough presence to the overall sound, try another frame nudge until you get the sound you like.
    This isn't true stereo but will create more of an aural landscape that might satisfy your request.

  • When i export a audio mono channel it turns into stereo

    hello
    something went wrong somewhere along the way, now every time i export an audio channel it forms as a stereo channel.
    by the way, how can i split a stereo channel on logic 9 into two seperate mono's?

    Hi,
    1st: There's a little circle below the channelstrip's level meter indication mono or stereo. If it's a single circle, it's mono. If it's a double circle, it's stereo. You'll also see the level meter single or double. Look for the single or double level meter!!
    2nd: Be sure you've created a mono audio track. If the track yo try to export is stereo (look at the level meters if they are doubled or not!), the resulting audio file will be stereo. That's because the export function puts the audio data through the circuitry of the track's channelstrip. If you put any Audio file, be it stereo or mono, into a mono track, the resulting export file will be mono. If you put any Audio file, mono or stereo, into a stereo track, the export's result will be stereo.
    Experiment - there seem so be a little inconsistency when or when not logic switches a track from mono to stereo and back!
    3rd: If you want to avoid the channelstrip alltogether, use the sample editor or the bin to convert the stereo file into split files (one for L, one for R)

  • How to convert mono audio to stereo during import?

    When I shoot my videos for YouTube I use an external mic which works great but when my camera records it, it is mono sound, so only the left channel of my source videos contain the talking.
    In the previous version of iMovie 9 I used to be able to export using QuickTime and convert the audio to mono so the final video which is uploaded has sound coming out of both speakers.
    Honestly I don't care what format my exported files are in, as long as they're HD and the audio is good. So the new .mp4 file format is no problem for me with iMovie 10.0.1
    In the lastest version of iMovie (10.0.1) I can't see a way to convert my mono audio to "real" mono or stereo sound (whatever it's called) so the sound comes out of both speakers. Having the talking only coming out of one speaker now makes me look like an idiot on YouTube.
    I tried a stereo/mono adapter where the mic connects to the camera but it resulted in no sound. So I'm hoping I can use an audio fix somehow using iMovie 10.0.1 to fix 'er up. What are my options guys?
    Yes I'm aware I can still use iMovie 9, which is what I've reverted back to until I can fix this problem.
    Thanks.

  • Mono to stereo converter for 6600

    Hey guys,
    Does anyone have any clue how to convert music output from mono to stereo in the nokia 6600?
    Thanks,
    I need a reply soon plz!!!
    Thanx

    It is a physical impossibility. If there is only one line out signal, you can't convert it to two with any converter (software or hardware).
    If you really must have stereo output, then you need a new phone.
