Blank new session,new tracks created as STEREO added as MONO

Post by Yeskeys » Tue Jul 17, 2012 7:37 pm

I can't add new stereo tracks, when specified they are added as only mono.

How are you adding the tracks? If you create a new project (with 0 tracks, for example), then press Add Track, and select 8 stereo tracks, you should get 8 stereo tracks (you'll see the little oo symbol above each channel in the mixer, that's how you know it's a stereo track).

Now, if you add a mono wav file, it will still play that mono wav file as mono. Is that what you're doing, perhaps?

That's what I'm doing exactly to add tracks. Apparently it is adding stereo tracks based on the infinity icon. However, in waveform view I get a mono wave, I'm not getting a stereo signal recorded. Yes, a have a verified stereo input feeding te IODock ins.

PS I've used protools since version ONE, so I'm not a newby.

Btw this app is a dream come true!

Best,
Eric

To record a stereo track, you need to also choose the proper input routing, using the input matrix. Make sure you select both channels for recording (1 & 2).
