Channel Tool not working for me...

First of all, I'm new here!
 
Second of all, great forum!
Thirdly,the plugin,  Channel Tools, on sonar x3, is not working for me. Anybody else having the same problem?? It just does not effect the vocal-increase/decrease ambiance , the 'R and L' indicators on the bottom left are almost invisible , pan , etc ; like it's suppose to do. Funny thing, it is fine on previous installment*X2 & x1 .
 
Any assistance with this, would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks once again .

    Just to elaborate on Charlies' post: Make sure the interleave on the track is set to stereo and not mono. Channel tools only works if the track (or interleave on a mono track) is set to stereo.

    Gotcha Jimbo21!! Props!!  I've been using Sonar for awhile, but I'm a bit embarrassed,  where is this 'interleave' you are referring to?

    On the console view channel strips. It looks like a little circle when it's mono, and two circles when it's stereo.

    The first 3 books in "The Musician's Guide to Home Recording" series are available from Hal Leonard and http://www.reverb.com. Listen to my music on http://www.YouTube.com/thecraiganderton, and visit http://www.craiganderton.com. Thanks!

    I think the Channel tool is Cakes best plugin. Hope they do a pro channel version soon. I'm wondering if it should be part of the main Sonar app rather than just a plugin.

    I hope so to . However, I don't see that happening. Great plugin.
