Can I Split Stereo Track into two Mono Tracks? Is there a simple, straight forward way or must I copy the track and use "Pan" to split the audio? Here's the Solution! Thanks SCOOK scook Forum Host  - Total Posts : 11186

Hi Conrad, select the track you want to bounce and in the Track View (TV), select the "Tracks" dropdown at the top of the TV and "Bounce to Track(s)" Pay close attention to the pop-up that comes up... for what you want to do, on the right side you will want "Source Category" = "Tracks" and "Channel Format" = "Split Mono"
Be advised that whatever you check will end up in the bounce (FX/mutes and such), so if it is a raw track, no worries there. If you have already done editing, and want to split the original raw track, you would need to uncheck everything except for "64-bit Engine" and "Fast Bounce" at the bottom (if desired).

0. Make sure the track intereleave button is set to Stereo not Mono!!! 1. Set pan to CENTER (!!!!) 2. In the VIEW, OPTIONS, TRACKS, CLIPS, MIDI, REGION FX pull-downs, select TRACKS 3. Select "Bounce to Tracks" 4. Set "Source Category" to Tracks. The name of the stereo track you are converting should be shown. 5. Set "Channel Format" to "Split Mono" 6. Set "Dithering" to "None" 7. Uncheck all the boxes except "64-bit Engine" and "Fast Bounce" [as mettelus said] 8. Hit OK

Hi,
I have the same issue and all the directions on here just end up giving me one track that has combined the left and right track. Bouncing the track just merges the halves. Im running X3.
just to be clear. I want to split the 2 parts of the stereo track into 2 separate tracks. 1 part of the stereo on one track and the other on another track.
Any ideas would be enormously appreciated. Ive spent the whole day working on this and for some reason the settings reverted to stereo when I laid down a crucial piece that is going to be insanely impossible to replicate.
Cheers
max

You have the track interleave button set to mono, so when you split mono, you get one track.

Works fine here, in both X3 and Platinum. I've uploaded a video to my YouTube channel with an unlisted link (I'll probably delete the video in a week or two to clean up my channel): http://youtu.be/MC6jNcPi1D8 Maybe you're not selecting the track...or something?

I just went through this headache with Sonar Platinum in July 2017 - it wouldn't split a stereo track into 2 separate mono tracks. But eventually I figured out what I was doing wrong, at least in my situation. My stereo track was an "Auxiliary" track and it didn't want to do the splits. To remedy it, I simply inserted a new empty "normal" audio track next to it, then dragged the audio from the auxiliary track into the normal track. Next I applied the above referenced procedure and miraculously, I got 2 mono tracks instead of one. I read above about the "interleave button" but couldn't find it in Platinum and assume that is something not carried over into Platinum as far as I know. Anyway, make sure you have a "normal" track or it may not work.
FYI - I made a stereo track for vocals as I'm trying out an Apollo Quad Thunderbolt and wanted to compare the software version of the LA610b to the hardware version which I own (LA-610 Mkii) and they sound about the same. I routed my Neumann TLM103 to a little Yamaha mixer with a splitter cord and made all the settings exactly the same to achieve the comparison. I guess I can sell my hardware unit now.
Just remembered - I don't think there is a way to record with FX in Sonar unless you use an auxiliary track and that's what has led me to the Apollo, I want to "print" some vocal FX as I'm recording, especially EQ and compression as it does it straightforward. Can Sonar do it straightforward?

you could print FX to the aux track and also to a separate audio track (clean) at the same time :-) otherwise the FX on a normal track would be clean underneath the FX. if the FX were not being morphed as you perform, then the results should be essentially equal on playback, but if you're using effects which shift or respond to the vox, you'd want to print that.

Yes, that's how I do it now but you can do it a little simpler with the Apollo Quad Thunderbolt version. Not sure if I'll keep the Apollo, I still have a few days for it to totally impress me but it's been fun trying it out. Got it at Sweetwater when they had the big Fathers Day 10% bonus deal. Before I got the Quad, I first tried the USB3 version but it was very noisy, then the TB DUO version but it couldn't handle more than a few plugs at once (and which cost me about $900 upgrading my computer to Thunderbolt 3 ability). Now I have the Quad version but Sonar still crashes often with the "Audio Drop" message popping up too often for my liking. Sometimes it works smoothly, other times, not so much. Not really sure if it's the Apollo's fault. I guess that's a whole new thread I need to start.
