I'm editing drums from a session recorded in Pro Tools, consisting of 10 close-mic tracks and 7 overhead / room tracks. The latter are in split-stereo format, and when importing them, Logic automatically packs the left and right files together in the media bin. Which is fine with me, but comp-editing these tracks is impossible. The official solution a-la Apple seems to be going over to the media bin, splitting these files one-by-one back into separate left and right tracks, deleting the stereo tracks from the arrange window and adding the mono ones instead. However, with 3-4 takes per song and 3 distinct stereo pairs, this is a small nightmare.
Does anyone know of a way to either enable comp-editing on stereo tracks (unlikely) or stopping Logic from joining these tracks to begin with?
I also did a bit of research and one solution seems to be to disable Universal Track Mode; however, doing that causes Logic to not play back any sound in my sessions, presumably because they already make use of UTM.
Thanks
