Why is my voice only coming out of one earphone?

I have my Input Source set to stereo, but I can only hear my voice out of one earphone. My backing track is coming out of both, though. What's going on? I'm using a condenser mic and a PreSonus FireBox, if that makes any difference. Please help!

Ah~ That has happened to me before. I found the problem to be that the little grey knob (sorry, I don't know technical terms) to be set in one particular direction. ie. L -6 It should be able to be set back by putting it at zero (+0) right in between. Hope this helps.

Why do my headphones only play out of right ear when they're perfectly fine?

my headphones were working fine last night but this morning when I went to listen to music they would only work out of right ear. If anyone knows the solution to this please let me know

It is very possible there is some type of dirt/debris in the headphone port. Check that area. Also, try unplugging and replugging the headphones, or wiggling them around gently in the port. Does that change things? Do you have a case on the phone? Is the headphone jack fully seated in the port?

Audio only coming out of left side of headphones

Hey all, I got my Ipod Video 8 months ago. Everything was perfect until recently. One day, I turned on my Ipod and sound was only coming out of the left side of the headphones. I thought it was the headphones, so I tried the headphones on a computer. And it was fine on the computer. I tried 3 different sets of headphones on my Ipod and still the same problem, the sound only comes out of the left side. If I move the jack around, sometimes sound will come out of the right side, but only briefly. Any suggestions on what I can do?

My ipod audio only coming through the right headphone whats wrong?, My ipod audio only coming through the right headphone whats wrong?

Ive tried with mulitple headphones but my audio on my ipod is only coming through the right headphone. Whats wrong with my ipod? WIll I need to purchase another one?

I don't know if this is a common issue: I bought an iphone from someone and notice that only the plug design of the stereo headphone that comes with it fits in its receptacle. I tried others that are generally for the same size but they can't go deep enough in the receptacle thus can't get any audio. One thing I noticed is that this iphone's receptacle is deeper in the device than usual, so any other plugs other than the one provided can't fit. I can't use my external speakers with it!!! I fail to understand this. All all iphones like this or is it a defect particular to mine? After all, my ipod touch doesn't have this issue! If anybody knows, please tell me.

Cannot hear out of right earphone

hey guys so when i got the phone i had to twist the earphone jack to listen to the right earphone and the left one worked fine, couple weeks later the earphone jack from the earphones had snapped inide the phone. I Had then clawed the earphone jack out and then when i now try to listen to music i have to twist and out the earphone jack in an exact place just to listen to the left one and the right one does not work at all and i only got the phone on christmas. Pretty dissapointed but is there anyways i can fix this?? Clean out the jack? Play with it? Any solution would help thank you

Take it back to Apple for appraisal. If it was like that from new at Christmas, it could be a warranty job.

Audio only playing out of Right Speaker when using 30pin-Lightning Adapter?

Hi There-
I have a Mini Cooper and often use its provided cable (connects via USB and Aux cord into 30pin for older gen iPhones/iPods, etc) to play music. However, with the purchase of my new iPhone 5 I bought the 30pin to Lightning adapter, and when I plug in my phone sound ONLY seems to be coming out of the Right speaker. Take off the adapter to use an older iPhone and both speakers play music. I don't know where the problem lies, I purchased both the phone and the adapter straight from the apple store...
Thanks for any help!

Since the cable works with your old iPhone, it's in the phone or the adapter. Take both to the Apple store, I'm sure they have some sort of dock they can plug it into to reproduce the issue - then they can try a different adapter with your phone, and a different phone with your adapter, to see where the problem is.

Sound not coming out for right headphone

If I press the headphone jack backwards, I can get sound coming out of both earpieces. However, if I just let it stand still, I can only hear it coming out of the left side. I tried different headphones, so it's the iPod and not the headphones.
My warranty expired 2 days ago (naturally) and I want to know if there's anyway to manually fix this. Or if it's possible to visit an Apple store to fix it.

1) Plug your headphones into another source, such as
a stereo. Does the problem still exist? If not, then
it is the iPod itself and not the headphones. If it
does still exist, then it is your headphones.
2) If under warranty, Apple will ship you a new set
of headphones for no charge as long as you return the
defective part in the envelope provided with the new
part they send you.
Oh gee, that's useful. So what's the fix if it's not the headphones?
I guess it's off to the apple store for me!
Does anyone else notice that all of us have no sound in right ear? Could it be an intrinsic flaw?

Does your music only play out of one speaker?

I was only hearing music played out of the left channel, either with or without headphones and also when played through a dock.
I found the solution:
Go to Settings : General : Accessibility and slide the L - R slider to the middle. Now the music plays out of both the L and the R speakers.
(If you tap the mono button there, then you will also hear sound out of both speakers, but you won't hear stereo effects, so don't do that).

Yes, that is a helpful addition to this thread, but my solution has to do with the speakers and the headphones that are plugged into the iPhone, as well as the stereo effect coming out of the iPhone itself. When the accessibility slider is not in the middle, then you only hear one channel of the stereo program whether fromt he iPhone or from plugged in speakers.

Sound only coming out of one ear.

So recently my ipods sound has only been coming out of one ear. I thought it was the headphones so I bought a new pair but it's still not working. Any ideas?

It is a bad contact between the iPod earphone jack with the plug.
Consider setting up a mail-in repair for your iPod http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
Or visit your local Apple Retail Store http://www.apple.com/retail/
In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ or ifixit at your own risk

http://www.ifixit.com/ - if you good to deal with small part of electronic device, just buy the part from this company and replace by yourself

Sound only coming out of 1 speaker at startup

I recently bought an Maudio to replace my x-fi, and the sound is great, and everything works fine, except when I start up, sound only comes out of 1 speaker. It isn't always the left or right, it changes. When I go into mixer and change the volume either up or down, sound returns to the missing speaker. Has anyone else had a similar problem?

See thread.
Worked around by running amixer to change volume levels in /etc/rc.local, IIRC.

Sound only coming out of sub!

My L3450's have just been delivered and no sound is coming out of the speakers, only the sub!

Audio only coming out center speaker

I just created a timeline in fcp using stereo tracks for the audio. I then exported QT and used Idvd to burn
When I play the DVD the menu plays out audio in all speakers including base,but when the movie plays
It only comes out the center speaker, any ideas why?

Sounds like your audio is primarily the same in both Left & Right channels, and your receiver is set to decode as Dolby Pro Logic, which takes all equal properties from the LR and steers them to the Center.

Audio only coming out one side of headphone port - Retina MBP

I bought a retina MBP a few months ago, and suddenly the headphone port only outputs to the right side. It does it with anything I plug in to it, so it's definitely not the speakers/headphones. It's also not the balance slider in the system preferences > sound menu.
Does this mean it's a hardware problem? I'd hate to have to send it in for repair, but this is driving me crazy.
Thanks for any help!
edit: I've also already reset the SMC to no avail.

System Preferences > Accessibility > Sound
Make sure that "Play stereo as mono" is not enabled.
Headphone jack fits in snug in the port?
Tried resetting PRAM?
If these steps do not help, you may have to contact Apple.
Best.
