  • Final Cut Pro 7 – One audio track

    Posted by Emily Geraghty on August 6, 2013 at 2:28 am

    This is probably a goofy question, new to final cut – but I just edited my entire project and realized that my mono audio is only on track A1, and I want it to play on tracks A1 and A2. The tracks are linked – is there an easy way to get it to play on tracks A1 and A2 or am I screwed? Hope that makes sense. Thanks 🙂

    Are the levels on the audio meter showing audio on L and R? If so, then your audio will output equally on tracks 1 and 2 when exporting.

    You mean, you only have a signal in A1 and A2 is silent? And that results in the audio only coming out of the left channel? Am I guessing right so far?
    Double click on the audio clip so it opens in the viewer. There, set the Pan-slider to centre. Now the sound from A1 should come out of the left and the right channel.

    Copy-pasting a duplicate audio track to track 2 can be problematic: it can introduce problems like phase cancellation. Check the single track for center-pan first.
