Multiple Mono Tracks to Stereo

I have a video clip that contains 4 mono tracks. All of which come out of the Left Channel. Can I change two of those tracks to come out of the Right Channel to simulate stereo? I tried going down to only two mono tracks and going to Modify > Stereo Pair, but it still comes out of the the left speaker.
Thoughts? I am a FCP novice, so please assume you are writing to an idiot. That idiot being me.

Select the two mono channels you want to come out of the Right channel in the Timeline then press Control-/ (the Control and / keys together). That is what FCP calls Pan Right (sending the audio to the Right channel).
I realize you've copied your tracks, though I'm not clear if the copies are coming out of the correct channels, so I figured I'd share the 'textbook' solution (which can be applied to those channels, too).

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • When a project is sent from FCP, do all mono tracks become stereo?

    It appears that when exporting a sequence from FCP, all mono tracks become stereo. Is this correct?
    I have a mono voiceover on A1, and a mono set of SFX on A2, and then some other stereo background music tracks. When sent to STP, the two mono tracks show as being stereo files, when you look at the file information, and indeed, they have two waveforms displayed in the timeline.
    Is this just the way it works?

    Interesting link, thanks for that.
    However, I have to say that was not my experience of how it ended up. I had two mono tracks, without panning, and when I sent it to STP, it ended up as 2 stereo tracks.
    I would have to experiment a bunch to try and figure out why that happened, and at this point, I think I've decided to NOT use STP and just stay in FCP, for a number of reasons. Mainly the fact that once you've done a whole bunch of effect assignment and mixing, enveloping etc. to a multitrack project in STP, there's no easy way to move a few clips around (in FCP) or tighten up some video edits without having to manually calculate frame offsets in STP, and laboriously move things around and hope they still match up. Could be I'm missing something, I only used STP for a full day...
    Maybe the update will make it better somehow.

  • 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.

  • Help, How to export multiple mono tracks?

    I have eight tracks of master audio that has been captured to FCP with the video. I have sent the timeline to soundtrack to create individual mono timestamped BWF for each track (very important).
    I have each of the tracks submitted to submixes. When I play the timeline you can see that each track has distinct audio assigned. Now when I export, telling the program to export all submixes, it only puts audio on tracks one and two. It is however creating 8 wav files.
    Now here is the odd thing, it was working for the first 4 day of the shoot. Now it has decided to crap out. Was I just getting lucky before, and if so. What settings should I have to achieve what I need.

    Yes, we are. The problem is unique, meaning that when we try aiff exports the full 8 channels right properly. But wav files don't only right the first two. We need to use wav since the tracks will be going to pro tools for the conform and mix.

  • I did a "Bounce - replace all tracks" and now all my mono audio tracks are stereo... What's the safest way to get them mono?

    I don't think I unchecked the "Include volume and pan automation" checkbox before the "Bounce - replace all tracks" conversion. I hadn't added any volume or pan automations I figured: you can't include something I haven't added, although I did probably have the pan controls set in the mixer. Anyway, now I want to convert my six (previously mono) tracks from stereo back to mono, preserving as much as possible the original mono sound quality before it was converted to stereo, so that I can start mixing. Every MP3 I've exported is ignoring the pan settings I have in the mixer, I suspect due to the fact that the audio for each track is now stereo (I changed the tracks back to "mono" in the mixer but the audio remains in stereo). Unfortunately I don't have any unused audio files in the audio bin and I killed the undo history as well. 

    Thats what I came up with:
    As you can see I got a stereo file on track 1 to start with,
    Now go to the corresponding channel strip and switch to mono,
    Perform a BIP to a new track
    and the result will be in mono.

  • Is there a way to select multiple audio tracks and make all of them stereo pair at the same time?

    I selected multiple tracks, pressed "option L" but was not able to make multiple clips stereo pair at the same time.

    If I remember correctly it is not possible modify a group of selected clips on the timeline with the Stereo Pair command - unless all the selected clips have exactly the same properties - such as being linked to  video clips, etc. So you have to manually go through and select the dual mono tracks you want to pair individually or in smaller groups to be able to apply the Stereo Pair command.
    If you select a bunch (a couple)  of clips, and go to the menu Modify, you will see if Stereo Pair is grayed out or not. If it is grayed out, then you can't apply it to those clips as a group, but you probably will be able to apply it if you make smaller selections of clips.

  • Adjusting multiple mono audio tracks with the Audio Mixer

    Anybody know how to adjust multiple mono audio tracks simultaneously with the audio mixer? If your tracks are stereo, one fader will control two faders or audio tracks. Suppose you have 6 mono audio tracks and don't want to pull down each fader separately. Is there a way to pull down one fader and have the others locked to it, or controlled by it?

    Not with the sliders, but you can adjust levels with ctrl [ and ctrl ] (I think, not at fcp right now).
    The autoselect buttons (to the right of the lock icons, at the head of the timeline) tell fcp which track to adjust...

  • When creating new track in stereo... track opens in mono in arrange window

    Since upgrading to 8.0.2...weird things are happening to previously saved projects. Stereo tracks are opening up mono and affecting following track. When creating new tracks in stereo.... tracks open mono. I don't know if this is due to 8.0.2 but all these freaky things have happening since. Also, when previewing Apple Loops, I can only hear it on one side, but Loops sounds fine once dragged to arrange window. Is this common or is my computer haunted ? Should I call Ghost Busters ? HELP !!! lol

    Hi there,
    I'm having the same problem as well: creating new tracks results in a mono software instrument, not the usual stereo software instrument. BUT... "Universal Track Mode" is already checked in my Audio prefs. I unchecked & rechecked it, but to no avail... I'm still only getting mono software instruments.
    Any other ideas? No changes have been made to my system, and I'm running the latest version of Logic Pro.

  • 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.

    Oops, i posted this in the wrong discussion group. can this be moved to STP?

    On the Channels Strip (of the Audio Track with the Audio Region), ctr+click on the left segment of the Input Button. That opens a popup menu where you can select Left (only the left channel of the Audio Region is played as mono), or Right (only the right channel of the Audio Region is played as mono).
    Once the signal flow of the Channel Strip is mono (one channel), you can use the "Mono➤Stereo" version of some plugins to convert the Channel Strip to a stereo channel.
    About your second question. If you are referring to the little blue "Catch Playhead Button", that automatically scrolls the Workspace when the Playhead reaches the right border to keep the Workspace visible. You also can also enable  the "Scroll in Play" mode in the local View Menu. That one locks the Playhead in the center and scroll the Workspace "underneath"
    However if you are referring to that little Play icon in the left upper corner of the Region Header (only visible in the Editor), that one, the "Solo Play Button", only plays that Region in solo mode. It is basically a combination of "Play " and "Solo" in on button. You can find all those little informations and much more in my graphically enhanced manual "Logic Pro X - How it Works".
    Hope that helps
