I am having a problem when import mp3 tracks. Always imports as a mono track even if the original was in stereo. Is there any setting for this?

My OS: Windows XP Home. Thank you for all.

Are you importing using "Import" from the file menu?
What about if you import a stereo WAV file?

I tried importing mp3 tracks through File menu (Open), Project menu (Import Audio), and drag & drop. Always imports as a mono track even if the original was (file properties shows)in stereo. When the same track was converted to WAV file it was fine. Is there any setting for this?

Sorry for not being clear enough in my previous request. My OS: Windows XP Home. Thank you stevethefiddle and Thank you for all you guys.

Download this file:

(Right click and "Save As")
Open Audacity and Import it from the Project menu. ("Import Audio...")
Does that import as stereo?
