Hello,
I have lots of mono tracks in audacity. They are all panned to various locations.
When I EXPORT the file, I only get mono playback... all of my panning effects are nowhere to be heard!
Is there a way to fix this problem? I still have the original Audacity Project file.
PLEASE HELP!
CAN'T EXPORT STEREO

Audacity 1.2.x is now obsolete. Please use the current Audacity 2.1.x version.
Mac 0S X 10.3 and earlier are no longer supported but you can download legacy versions of Audacity for those systems HERE.

Re: CAN'T EXPORT STEREO
I'm not seeing this in Audacity 1.2.6 or 1.3.12 on my Mac.
You've posted in 1.2.x forum. I'd recommend upgrading to 1.3.12, especially if you are running OS X 10.6.

Re: CAN'T EXPORT STEREO
Just to be clear, are you exported files actually in "real" mono, or are they in two-track mono -- stereo with the same left and right? Open them in QuickTime Player and Command-I to get the Info panel.
Audacity is supposed to revert to stereo when you activate the panning sliders. Did you start with Stereo preferences? Audacity > Preferences > Quality > 44100, 16-bit and Devices > Recording > Stereo.
If it's still stuck like that, You may need to reset your preferences. That changes depending on your version.
