How to divide audio in Left and Right Channel?

Hi there,
I want to divide audiofiles into the left and right channel, but I keep forgetting the shortcut.
Can anyone give me the shortcut again?
Thanks a lot

If you have two audio clips of the same duration, you can select (highlight) both, then hit Option l (lowercase L) to make them a stereo pair. The pan will be set to -1 indicating that channel 1 will be routed to the left output channel and channel 2 will be routed to the right output channel.

  • How to separate left and right channel in audiotracks

    I would like to adjust audio tracks left and right channels separetly from each other. Now the volume levels are linked together. Is there a way to separate them?
    Other question is ; for some reason the pan slider in viewer does not seem to have left/right affect but kind of mono/stereo affect. It is supposed to be so, or do I have some audio preference button in wrong position?

    To answer to myself: Go to the User Manual and read the Chapter Audio Editing Basics from page 425.
    Or click the clip in timeline which you want to change, and go to Modify---> uncheck the stereo pair option in there.

  • How do I deal with audio, seperate left and right and make each stereo--CS5

    I have a two mono mike recording which I can seperate into two seperate audio timeline tracks one is now left track in a seperate timline and the other is right in the other timeline, how do I make each of these tracks then into psuedo stereo tracks?  Do I have to go to Soundbooth or is there a simple way in Premiere?

    Bill G, tell me what I am missing and I'll use your method.  I have what I think you are describing, and I don't understand the need to do anything special, if you use channel mapping.
    I record a lav on one channel, and a different wireless mic on the other.  When captured, I have a clip that PR would normally treat as a single stereo track.
    BEFORE putting any clips on the timeline, select all clips and set channel mapping.  Set each channel to mono.  Now PR treats these as two mono tracks.  The output for each mono is the master track, which in my project is stereo.  I can change "volume" for each track in the mixer, etc.  but each channel is provided to the left and right  master output.
    I didn't go back to sort out what you had, but if you had two stereo tracks, one each with a left and right channel only, I can see that you needed some other solution.

  • How to set audio instruments to record in left and right channels

    I am a new Logic express user. I am using a PreSonus FireWire to in put guitars and mic's. If I use Logic Express to record my guitars from input 1 I only get sound out of the right channel. If I use input 2 I only get sound out of the left channel. If I use the Garage Band tab to input the same instruments plugged into either channels 1 or 2 on my PreSonus I get sound from both the left and right channels together. There must be a simple fix I am missing in Logic. If anyone can help me I would I would appreciate it.

    Hi t,
    welcome to the forum!
    There's nothing wrong with your set-up!
    MONO inputs to mono tracks,
    from the mono track you can add mono to stereo plug-ins and benefit from that.
    In garage band you have a mono input that showing a stereo channel, that's what what I have explain above. In Logic it's a blody waste of HD space (not to say wrong) as you recording a mono file to stereo.
    Think bigger and pratical now T, those things make all the sence,
    GB is so easy that can confuse us about the real thing because it's hidden from your eyes.
    Kindly regards,
    Jorge

  • How do I apply effects equally to the left and right channels.

    I am an intermittent user of Sound Track Pro. I've made some cool audio beds with it in the past but right now I'm having two problems since I have not used it in so long and never was pro with it to begin with.
    1. Seems like the lift and stamp tool only works in multi-track mode and not in the wave editor.
    2. so I put my file in the wave editor to redo the effects from scratch there but now I don't know how to apply them equally to the left and right channels.

    Thank you! One more question: I've got quite a bit of interview tape and would like to increase the playback speed to 1.5X or 1.75 x so that I can get through everything faster. Is there a way to set it at those tempos? I only see the 2X, 4X, 6X, etc. options, but these are too fast and I can't understand what is being said. Is there a way to set this to 1.5X the original speed?
    Thanks!

  • I would like to transfer old reel-to-reel tapes to an iMac. There are different recordings on the left and right channel of the tapes. When I connect the tape deck to the Mac, I get one recording on the left, the other on the right speaker. What to do?

    I was about to transfer some music from a reel-to-reel machione to my Mac. There are different sound recordings on the left and right channels. When I connect with RCA cables and Y-connector, I hear one recording from the left speaker, another from the right side. How do I record only one side, but hear it from both speakers?
    Detlef

    You don't say what end, or connectors are plugged into what. I'm assuming the RCA connectors are on the reel-to-reel end. Since the tape has two different mono recordings, one on each track, you of course only want one at a time during playback. Otherwise, the Mac (or any recording setup) can only treat it as a stereo recording with the standard Left-Right tracks.
    1)  There are multiple ways to connect different types of cables to get a mono signal down to a stereo output at the Mac. Here's one way.
    2) Plug any RCA cable (single cable or stereo) into only the right or left RCA output of the reel-to-reel.
    3) On the other end of the RCA cable, plug in an adapter like this. That will feed the single RCA output into a mono 1/8" plug.
    4) Then plug that adapter into this. That turns the 1/8" mono signal into a "stereo" output with the same single track audio being fed to the Mac on both the left and right channels.
    5) Record either the left or right output of the reel-to-reel. Rewind the tape and switch the RCA connector on the reel-to-reel to the right channel (if you started with the left) and record that mono signal as stereo.
    Or, avoid all of this hardware mumbo-jumbo in the first place and do this:
    1) Record the audio just the way you have it. Two different recordings, one on each channel.
    2) Copy the audio recording to a new name and open it in your editor.
    3) Highlight the left track and copy/paste it into the right track. Presto! Mono recording of the left track on both channels. Save the recording.
    4) Repeat, only copy/pasting the right track into the left track and save the second recording.

  • I'm using GarageBand 10.0.1. Do the built-in drum tracks only come in mono format, or is it possible to make them true stereo (i.e. Left and Right channels outputing different signals, to sound like the kit has been panned across the stereo field)?

    All the Drum Kits available for GarageBand are mixed in stereo.
    Logic provides the same 18 Drum Kits also as "Producer Kits", which are multi-track outputs,. Each Drum Kit Piece (Kick, Snare, HH, etc) and also room mice and overheads are routed to individual channel strips.
    Here is a screenshot of one Drum Kit in Logic Pro X with individual Channels Strips. Each Channel Strip can be loaded with individual effects (compressor) and adduced with individual sends, etc.
    What that means is that all the Drummers are professionally recorded and sampled with individual mics. The Stereo Drums Kits are just "stereo mix-downs" for easier handling and less CPU demand. I explain all the details about the Drummer ecosystem in my graphically enhanced manual "GarageBand X - How it Works"
    Hope that helps

  • Splitting left and right channel

    I need to split the left and right channels of the audio output.  I have a stereo cable from my new HP  Pavilion 15 Notebook PC, running Windows 7 Home Premium,  to an amp that takes the channels separately.  The amp allows me to control the volume for the channels separately.  This does not work on my new laptop.  I get both channels on both ends of the cable.
    I have an older HP G60 Notebook PC, running Windows 7 Home Premium, and the same cable and same amp does just what I need.
    Is there a way to configure the audio out port in my new PC so it works like the audio out port on my old PC?

    Hello - what is the best way to swap left and right channels on a master?
    If I use the direction mixer and reverse the phase is that effectively what's
    happening?
    No, not at all. Reversing the phase will not swap anything, it'll just reverse the phase.
    Use the Gain plugins' Swap button for that. The Gain plugin is under {inserts}>Utility>Gain

  • ITunes 7 playing only from left and right channels with 5.1 speakers

    I have an SB Audigy 1 sound card with Creative Inspire 5200 digital 5.1 speakers, and iTunes only plays audio from the left and right speakers, and the subwoofer. The other 3 speakers work; I've tested them.

    I am having more or less the same problems as you guys. Currently I use a soundblaster audigy 4 with "CMSS 3D" function ... it used to work with itunes but started to get all weird with the 7.0 update. If nobody knows how to fix this I will have to use 6.xx again :/
    I'd be grateful for any advice as well,
    thanks in advance.

  • Left and right channel panning for drummer backing tracks in Garageband - HELP

    Hi there
    OK, so I've finished my song on garageband that I've recorded with a USB keyboard with many STEREO keyboard parts and a click track.
    I need to be able to mix down to the following specification for my drummer.
    Left Channel - Mono keyboard sounds (to goto PA)
    Right Channel - Same Mono keyboard sounds plus click track (to be heard through headphones)
    So basically the keyboard will be the same mono track at the same volume playing through both the left and right. I cant simply put the stereo keyboard sound in the centre as that would mean the drummer would get SOME parts of the keyboards stereo fields and the PA would get the other parts of the stereo field so it wouldnt sound right.
    Any ideas how to do this?
    I hope I've explained myself OK

    I need to be able to mix down to the following specification for my drummer.
    Left Channel - Mono keyboard sounds (to goto PA)
    Right Channel - Same Mono keyboard sounds plus click track (to be heard through headphones)
    Here are instructions on how to split a stereo track into mono tracks:
    http://www.bulletsandbones.com/GB/FAQPages/StereoToMono.html
    On top of this, you will want to re-import the mono keyboard track back into Garageband, duplicate it onto a 2nd mono track,  then add the click track (on a separate 3rd mono track of course).  Then pan one mono keyboard track hard left, and pan the other mono keyboard track hard right and the click track hard right as well.  Export as normal and everything should be good.

  • Sound - Left and Right Channels?

    Alrighty, there's probably an easy way to do this, but I need help.
    I have a video in which the sound was only imported in the left audio channel. I would like the audio to be played through both the left and right, rather than just the left. Even if it's just mono sound, I want to be able to hear it from both speakers.
    Any help?
    Thanks

    Put the audio in the timeline, select the tracks or the clips, and press Control-period for pan center.

  • How to split audio tracks into left and right channels as we do in FCP or Avid needed for dubbing?

    We are recording in two languages, one in left and the other in right channel. However, in Adobe Premiere Pro we are not able to split the track when we take up for rought cut. Both the tracks are found mixed. Pl help. Since we need to maintian the split track to dubb into other languages.

    You need to do this before adding the footage to the sequence:
    Select the clip (or multiple clips) in the bin
    Menu > Clip > Modify > Audio Channels (Shift G)
    Change 'Number of Audio Tracks' to 2
    Change 'Channel Format' to Mono
    Dismiss the info message.
    When you place the clip in a sequence it will now drop L and R into separate tracks (assuming your sequence allows that audio model).

  • Problem panning to left and right channels

    I'm trying to use GB3 to create click tracks for live performances. I put a click track in the left channel, and add instruments in the right channel. It sounds fine in headphones but when I export to iTunes there are no separated tracks. The click track and all instruments are in both speakers.
    How do I keep the tracks separated in an MP3?

    Need more info!
    Fully describe your setup and process - are you recording into a USB or FireWire audio interface, using an external click track panned to one side while you record something through the other channel?
    What do you mean "no separated tracks" - do you mean you expect different files for each track? Of course, GarageBand only exports one stereo AIFF to iTunes.
    Are you saying that you've recorded tracks with hard panned material and when you export they are not panned correctly?

  • Left and right channels of stereo sound coming only from left spea

    The title says it all. I can't figure out what's wrong. I checked all the settings I can think of, but nothing seems out of place. It's not the right channel cutting out, but both channels coming from the left speaker (I used the speaker test feature to confirm this). This just happened out of nowhere when I booted up my pc. Any idea what's wrong?
    *Oh, and this is an Audigy 2 (plain version).Message Edited by Geise on 2-3-2005 : PM

    Did you ever fix this problem? I have the exact same thing happening to my sound.
    All the sound comes from the left in stereo sound. I plugged the green stereo analog speakers into the other pin the blackone for 4. setting on my SBLi've24 allthe others play fron t left back left and back right but the front right is so soft like a whisper.
    So the speakers work. Im running a Xp mediaedition system. It happened after an apparent sound conflict that made an electronic popping sound which got progressi'vely worse until i figured out how to reset the car d in the Bios level. I have done evrything but reformat the hard dri've All tests say the hardware is working but still no front right channel. Help please

  • Left and Right Channels: Deleting, merging, copying, panning...etc

    Back when I used Windows, I used Cool Edit Pro (now Adobe Audition) and I knew how to do anything I needed to to any channel. Now that I'm using Mac and Logic Pro...I'm clueless.
    What I want to do is to mix 50% of a left channel into a right channel (or vice versa) and mess around with channels that way. I also want to be able to completely silence one of the channels and pan. Any insight? A few hours of reading the manual, searching the forum, and trial and error has done me no good.

    You have to create split stero files and seperate them. Here is the link to a thread where I described the procedure:
