I have an MAudio Firewire Solo interface with my iMac and Logic Express, and recently I purchased a microphone for recording vocals, etc. Nothing too fancy, its called Whaferdale pro DM 2.0. I have plugged it into the Input 1 of the interface and armed a new Audio track in LE. Made sure the track is stereo, armed the track for recording and hit rec. The input isnt very loud, despite the knob being turned all the way up, but the main problem is that vocals are only recorded via the left chanel? I cant seem to be able to get both left and right recording despite the track being a stereo one.
What's going on? Thanks everyone, J |

Its a mono microphone connected to a mono input and so will only record in mono.
You can use stereo effects like reverb, delay, chorus etc to create a stereo picture when mixing, but its really unusual to record vocals in anything other than mono. -------------------- www.myspace.com/commercialmusicstudios

Thanks Jim,
I'm not actually concerned about recording vocals in mono, I'm concerned about the resulting recordings only coming out of the left speaker, given that the recording only inputs through the left channel. Its awkward to have a track with the vocals coming out of only one speaker. How do I record in mono but make sure the sound recorded comes out of both speakers? thanks J |
