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.

    Yeah, I remember someone posted that solution a long time
    ago. It seems if you load a file with the same name the cache
    doesn't
    know any better and adjusts the download size to the smaller
    one. Maybe it's a good way to do it! Could it be a way to remove an
    mp3 from someone's cache after it plays? hmmmm Will have to
    do more testing.

  • 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)?

    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 putting out 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

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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?
    Message was edited by: TRST

    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.

  • 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?

    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

  • Camera Raw crops my image from left and right

    As you can see in the screen cap, camera raw inside AE opens my timelapse images cropped from left and right. I had this problem before in photoshop too, but never tried to fix it. I'm now in serious trouble and need to find a solution ASAP.

    I'm guessing that you cropped in camera and when you shoot RAW the crop is honored but can be removed. I would use Lightroom. Set up a preset that resets the crop and process all of the frames and then export a png or if you want to do some advanced color correcting in AE, select any of the 32 bit image formats and render your resized images to a specific folder. Then import the images as an image sequence in Premiere Pro or AE and do the rest of the work. Importing an image at a time into AE and sequencing the layers in nuts...IMHO
    One other thing, before you shoot any more images with this camera go through the menu and reset it to not crop your images.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Magic Mouse stops sliding vertically, only slides left and right...

    Hello,
    I just bought a brand new MBP and decided to get the Magic Mouse to go with it. For the first week it worked really well. Now, besides the other issues everyone is discussing, I've noticed that periodically throughout the day, the mouse will not let me slide up or down. I can only slide left or right. Has anyone else experienced this? Any solutions?
    Second, if the mouse (and computer) goes to sleep (after 5 minutes or so...) when I try to use it again, it seems to be dead. I have to go into control panel and reconnect the mouse to regain use. The green light on the bottom doesn't appear at all when this happens. Anyone else having this problem? Any solutions?
    Any thoughts welcome...
    Thanks.

    Hi Civilian12 & welcome to the forums...
    Try resetting some of the hardware involved (PRAM~NVRAM). See this Apple KB for details, etc.:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    Can't hurt to try, and apparently this has helped others recently.
    Failing that, take it to an Apple Store and ask staff there for assistance.

  • 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

  • How to make mono recording play both left and right channels

    I have an old mono recording that plays only on the left channel. How can I copy it to play on the right so I'll hear it on both channels? I put it on itunes and then tranferred it to Garageband in hope I could finally get it to play on both channels. I've tried everything in Garageband and nothing works. It seems simple to me, just duplicate the one channel to the other. Garageband says if you use the compressor it will play in both channels, but it won't. Any ideas? It's a recording from a band I was in back in 1966. We used state of the art reel to reel but it was mono! All these years I've tried to figure how to fix it. Thanks

    I already recorded it from the tape to CD Spin Doctor through the line in and as I said it only comes out on the left channel. So then it's on itunes and I then transfer it to Garageband but it still is only on the left channel.I guess I could do this the old fashion way and get a mono plug to re-record to Spin doctor but in this day and age of sophisticated computer software I thought there may be an easier way. I guess I wasted my money thinking Garage band would help me edit this recording. Oh well, such is life!!!!
