Convert two mono tracks into one stereo?

I've imported a clip from my DV camera into Final Cut. For whatever reason, the clip audio is two mono tracks rather than one stereo track. Is there a way for me to convert this to a stereo track after the import?
Thanks very much,

Select both clips in the Timeline, then go to Modify->Stereo Pair (Option L). But if both clips contain the same audio information, it won't really be stereo ... just two tracks panned left & right.
If you want the audio to come in as stereo when you capture next time, make sure that you have the Capture settings for the audio set to "stereo."

  • Making two mono tracks from one stereo track?

    I've used the M-Audio MobilePre USB device to record  vocal and guitar at the same time. In GarageBand, this inputs as one track, with guitar on the left channel and vocal on the right.
    I'd like to separate this one stereo track into two mono tracks for further mixing and editing.
    Any ideas on how to do this?
    Thanks!

  • How to put two mono tracks into the usual stereo view in Edit view of Audition 3 ?

    Hi guys,
    Previously I have had no issues simply using Adobe Audition 3 for simple stereo recording and editing of a stereo feed taken from a mixer... well nearly no issues....  :-)
    Today, I'm having a bad day or else it's because I'm getting used to being retired.. :-)  ......
    Query :    How do I put two mono tracks into the usual stereo view in Edit view so they both display correctly there?
    Put simply I have two mono wav files. Let's call them Left_wav and Right_wav.
    I cannot seem to get them imported into a new clean Edit view (Normal stereo track layout) so that Left_wav is on the top half and Right_wav is on the bottom half.
    Whenever I try, I just get either Left_wav or Right_wav taking up the whole of the edit view. i.e. it just shows one track.
    Can anyone familiar with Audition 3 kindly help? I'd appreciate a simple step by step... I just can't see where I've been going wrong, and it's driving me bananas :-).
    Thanks

    There are various ways to do this in Audition 3. here's one.
    Open both mono files separately in Edit view. Then convert Left_wav to Stereo by going to Edit/Convert Sample Type and under Channels select Stereo with Left Mix at 100% and Right Mix at 0%. This will give you a new stereo file with Left_wav on the top channel. Next go to the Right_wav and copy to the clipboard using Edit/Copy. Return to your new stereo file and enable Edit Right channel only in Edit/Edit Channel/Edit Right Channel. Then make sure that the cursor is at start of the stereo file and Paste Right_wav into the bottom channel of the new stereo file. Finally Save As.

  • How to make 48 mono tracks into 24 stereo tracks

    When I opened a Final Cut Pro project in Audition 5.5 the Final Cut Pro project had 24 stereo pairs.  The Audition project has 48 mono tracks.  How do I convert every pair of mono tracks into a stereo track?

    The FinalCut XML format that is used to send this only accomodates mono clips on mono tracks (just like FinalCut itself). If it supported Stereo clips on Stereo tracks like most DAWs or PremierePro, then it wouldn't really be an issue.
    That being said, the linking between two adjacent clips in a stereo pairs in FinalCut doesn't transfer over because this version of Audition CS5.5 doesn't have the ability to group clips.   If the source audio files are originally stereo, you could save the session as a SESX, and then perhaps make a script to modify the XML to change all the tracks to stereo, and find and combine 2 mono clips referencing a stereo file, and just make a single stereo clip.  I'm not sure if that explanation helps (or even makes sense).
    Perhaps you could post the session, and I could give more direct advice.

  • Combining dual mono tracks into single stereo

    I may be brain dead about this and since I have been recording a client all day--a non-pro doing a VO--I am. I may not be using the search function very well either here or in the manual.
    I am working on a 27 minute film segment in Logic exported from FCP using the XML function. Mostly that has gone well but is by no means plug and play. It is very cool to have the project based in Logic and be able to do all my audio and music in one environment to HD picture.
    My quandary is this: I would like all of my dual mono tracks from FCP to appear as a single stereo track in LP8. Is it possible to "collapse" two tracks into one with out exporting, reimporting them and then re-syncing possibly?
    This is a confusing project and the more I can simplify my organization the easier my life will be.
    Thanks, eab

    One easy way to treat the two mono tracks as one for editing a so forth would perhaps be to assign them both to the same Group. That way all edits, automation and such will be applied to both tracks.

  • Mergin two audio tracks into one without hardware

    Hello i'm Michele from Italy.
    I'm trying to develop a system to merge two audio traks together but at moment i didn't find a good solution.
    I guess the object javax.sound.sampled.Mixer seems to need an hardware audio card (wich is not present in remote servers) and this class http://www.jsresources.org/examples/MixingFloatAudioInputStream.java.html
    do the job with poor results, no pan is avaible, stereo is not supported well.
    may someone help me to use one of this classes in right way?
    thanks a lot

    As for Mixers, I do believe that there should always be a software mixer installed on the system, but I'd be worried about throwing a Headless exception if you're running them on a remote server.
    If you're okay with using JMF, then there is an example program that merges tracks into a single file...

  • Possible to Join Two Mono Tracks to Stereo, Or Change Panning of a Stereo?

    In the new Garage Band 11, is it possible to Join Two Mono Tracks to Stereo, or Change the Panning of a Stereo track, or split a stereo track into two mono files?
    Sometimes it would be convenient when I have a lot of tracks to combine two mono tracks into one stereo track to eliminate an additional track.
    Also, I find that I often want to change the panning of a stereo track to either make it wider, or merge the two channels, even reverse L&R. If no way to change the panning of a stereo track can a stereo track be split into two mono tracks to be panned differently?

    only by exporting the two tracks
    or Change the Panning of a Stereo track
    you can pan a stereo track in every version of GB with the pan knob
    or split a stereo track into two mono files?

    that's different. no, you'd have to split the track into two mono files as described above.
    even reverse L&R.

  • Merge two mono files to one stero file

    i want to make two mono tracks into one stereo track where one is the left part of the the stereo track and the other the right part...i thought i had done that a long time ago...if possible, how do i do that?

    Split Stereo files can be converted to Interleaved files. Do that in the Audio window (Copy/convert file).

  • Convert dual mono tracks to stereo in Audition CC

    How do I convert dual mono tracks to stereo in Audition CC please?

    Sorry, but your intentions here aren't clear.
    Do you have two mono signals on one stereo track, or are you talking about two separate mono tracks that should be stereo, and you want them as a single stereo track?
    With the latter, open one file and copy it to the clipboard. Open the other file, and use Edit>Convert Sample Type to convert it to 'stereo' (really dual mono). Select just the side you want to replace, highlight it and hit Delete - this should leave your original file on one channel, and nothing on the other. Place the cursor at the start of the empty section and paste the clipboard contents here. Save the result. You now have a stereo file.
    If you have a dual mono file and you want some stereo ambience on it, then have a look at SHEPPi. This does a remarkably good job of that on mono files!
    There are several other ways of doing file combining - you could do it quite easily in Multitrack mode, and there are also some utilities around that will do it directly for you - although you could easily be forgiven for being completely unaware of them, because generally they are used for reorganising multi-channel Broadcast Wav files, and don't show up using a simple search term.

  • Mono tracks into stereo

    I am using commnad L to link two mono tracks into stereo.
    The two tracks are of the same video material.
    I need them linked so I can edit them in a smooth manner but when selcted and using the command L fuction they are not linked.
    How can I fix this?

    You want to make the two audio tracks a Stereo Pair, by selecting them on the timeline and the using Option-L.

  • Two mono tracks - one stereo

    How could I join two mono tracks (wav pcm) to one stereo without quality loss using ST Pro 2.0? If there is no good way to do this, could you recommend something, that can. Thanks

    Not sure what you mean by joining 2 files, but if you export as the same bitdepth and samplerate and leave the faders at 0 VU there shouldn't be any quality loss.

  • How do you combine 2 mono tracks into a single stereo track?

    Question here:
    How do I combine 2 mono tracks into a single stereo track in Logic?
    I recorded using my left and right out of my keyboard to a hard-disk recorder (Korg d888). The files are made as two separate wav files. Is there way to combine these in Logic so I can treat it as one stereo track?
    I have several files to do and am hoping Logic has something like a "combine tracks to stereo track" tool or something.

    Solo both tracks and bounce them with no effects and faders at 0 dB.

  • Stereo -- two mono tracks

    hello!
    I had a question about importing a stereo track. I'm in a stereo multitrack right now, and open a stereo track in that, but 
    I'm still not sure how to split the stereo track into two mono tracks.
    Right now it's just playing on the Left side of the headphone. How do I get it so that there are two tracks - one on top of the other?
    Help?
    Thank you for bearing with my training wheels here!
    Best,

    I'm not sure why you want to do this. If you put a stereo track into a stereo session, then it will play in stereo. If you want to alter the relative left and right levels of the track, you use the Pan control in the mixer. If you can't hear both channels, then you need to check the mixer's master output options (where it says Default output at the top) and make sure that you have a stereo option selected - if you don't have this selected properly, you'll definitely only hear one channel.

  • Split Stereo to Two Mono Tracks - Need Help

    We're having trouble with STP working with two non-stereo tracks.
    We have footage that we're editing in Final Cut Pro that was captured with two separate mics providing the audio. (A wireless lav and a shotgun.) The sequence is set up with two mono tracks.
    When sending the project to SoundTrack Pro, it's opened up as a pair of stereo tracks. We cannot find a way to edit just one of the tracks without it affecting both at the same time.
    How can we separate the tracks so they can be tweaked individually and then sent back to Final Cut Pro?
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    ...and when doing that, make sure when you export, you don't fall over one of the many bugs in STP:
    You will probably find that the clip with the right channel selected actually plays the left channel after being exported (sound fine on the timeline - problem only on the exported file).
    The solution is to
    1) duplicate the stereo file and place on new track (as suggested)
    2) select left channel on first clip (control/right click the file)
    3) select second clip and swap the L and R channels around (Process-> swap channels)
    4) select left channel on first clip (control/right click the file)
    Oh the joys of STP!
