Stereo audio recording
Stereo recording only applies to audio Tracks and has no relevance for MIDI data.
Setting a Track to stereo
This is done in the Inspector, by clicking the Mono/Stereo button until it shows
stereo.
The mono/stereo button in the Inspector.
Which Tracks can be set to stereo?
The mono/stereo button indicates if a track can be set to stereo or not (it is bright
when this is possible and dark when it is not). A Track must meet the following cri-
teria for the stereo option to be available:
• It must be set to an odd channel number.
A stereo recording always uses as an odd channel for the left channel and an
even for the right.
• It must not already contain any mono recordings.
If there are already mono Parts on the Track you can not switch it to stereo
and vice versa.
• No other audio Track that is already in use can be set to “the other”
channel.
If channel 4, for example, is already used by some Track for a mono record-
ing, a Track set to channel 3 cannot be switched to stereo.
What happens when I switch a Track to stereo?
• The Chn column in the Inspector indicates the
two channels used for
stereo.
This example indicates that
theTrack uses channels 1+2.
