Can some help me please..

Im doing the sound editing for small animation, I want to use the sound effects which are in stereo, on to the mono track.. I dont want to use the splitted channels of the stereo track onto the mono track..

So can any body tell me how to sum the stereo to mono before I put them onto mono track?

Im using pro tools..

If you assign the output of your stereo tracks to a mono bus, set the input of a mono track to the bus and then record to the mono track, you will get a stereo to mono downmix. However, you should be careful to monitor the mono track, as it's very possible that the combination of the L and R channels will cause phasing.

I'd recommend using a single channel from the stereo pair on the mono track instead.

    Also, to get the equivalent level, you'll need to trim your stereo track by 6dB. Jul 11, 2013 at 18:57
