Hello everyone,
I have a problem uploading my wave file.
Track Problems
The following track(s) have errors:
SOFIA.wav:
Bit depth is 32 bits, must be 16 or 24 bits.
Audio channel count is 1, must be 2 (Stereo)
Can any of you help me solve this?
Thanks in advance.
With kind greetings.
gilbert

Bit depth is 32 bits, must be 16 or 24 bits.
When you
export (save) there is a drop-down menu where you can select the bit depth ...
"WAV (Microsoft) signed 16-bit PCM" is universally accepted.
If you need to make a mono recording into 2-channel, (a/k/a dual mono).
Duplicate the track, (
select the track, then press "Ctrl"+"D").
Then join those two identical tracks to make a "stereo" pair, see ...

Meanwhile, I followed your guidelines and after duplicating and " making a stereo track " has managed to upload my song on the Music platform Amuse.
A million thanks for your help, I am very pleased with the result through your cooperation.
Best regards,
Gilberto
