The movie soundtrack is a separate stereo track (or channel, as you call it), there is only the movie sound in it.
The narrator's mic has it's own mono track.
The movie soundtrack and the narrator mic are not mixed together.

As an editing example, here I have time-shifted the narrator track five seconds.
You'll notice that the movie soundtrack stays put.

EDIT:
Here are the input sources I used in Kristal:

Microphone to top track

Stereo Mix to bottom track.

Hey,

First off, sorry for not replying earlier...I got caught up in some other stuff.

Anyway...

Thank you! I tried what you said and it worked!

Man, I've been at this for days now and I was getting really frustrated. I knew there was a way to do it, but I just couldn't figure it out.

Now, only thing left to do, is try to reduce some of my mic's background noise in real time. Lol.

If anybody asks how to do what I was trying to do in the future, you guys can direct them to this thread and to ragnar.jensen's posts. It works. Just make sure you tell them to disable all ASIO4ALL devices and restart Kristal(unless their system supports ASIO and Windows Audio at the same time) or else it won't work.

Yeah, man...thanks a lot, again. :) :) :) :)

Kristal sucks, though. It doesn't reconize VSTs that you install. Only ones that are .DLLs only.

I remmond something else.

Exactly like Audacity then. What were you expecting Kristal to do?
