This question may have been asked before, I have searched and searched so if it has please forgive me.

I have a mix I am working on inside of Cubase which involves numerous mono tracks. The situation is when I pan a mono track to the right the sound completly disappears. When I pan it to the left it sounds louder and re-enforced.
I have seen this question many times but no one has ever put the answer up. Any help would be appreciated. When ever I start a mix I can pan a mono track normally and just how I want to.

Thanks again in advance.

It sounds like Cubase treats your mono track as a stereo channel with signal only on the left track. I dont know cubase in detail, but can you change properties per track so mark it as being mono?

A workaround can be to convert the wav files to double-mono (same audio on L&R.) Or maybe that is the origin of the problem: you say its mono but in fact it is a stereo WAV with silence on the right channel. Then you should convert them to true mono.

AFAIK, only by exporting to a new audio file.

My first bet also would be that it is a stereo file with only one channel of audio

You don't have to bounce it mono. You can rightclick on the file in the pool window and convert it (first create a new version; same menu)

In the audio pool window it says its a mono track when i pan to the left it doesnt move to the left it just gets louder and when i pan to the right it cuts out.

check the audio track itself - is it mono? (just to make sure you didn't check some other file in the pool)

Post

can you post a screen shot where we could see the channel info from the arrange window and the file in the pool?
