Splitting and Joining Stereo Tracks



Using the commands in the Audio Track Dropdown Menu you can:
 * Split a stereo track into separate tracks for left and right channels
 * Split a stereo track into two separate mono tracks
 * Join two mono, left or right tracks into one stereo track.

Splitting and Joining Tracks
Here is a stereo track:

After choosing "Split Stereo Track" from the Track Dropdown Menu we get separate left-channel and right-channel tracks:

After choosing "Split Stereo to Mono" from the Track Dropdown Menu on the original stereo track we get two separate mono tracks:

Choosing "Make Stereo Track" from the Track Dropdown Menu of the upper track of a pair of mono, left or right channel tracks (in any combination) will combine those two tracks into one stereo track. The upper track will become the left channel of the stereo track and the lower track will become the right channel regardless of their current designation as mono, left or right. In the example below, two mono tracks are about to be combined into one stereo track. The result of this operation will be to re-create the stereo track as shown in the image above.
