Hey Joseph…
Sorry to hear you’re dealing with the same issue I did. I finally figured it out and it was a simple enough fix.
The first thing I did was go up to my “sequence settings” under Sequence menu. Then in the “audio outputs” tab make sure that your downmix is set to “0” and groupings is set to “stereo”. In my case and most likely your case, the grouping is set to “dual mono”. This was the main issue.
After I made that change, I went to my clip audio in the sequence and deleted one of the “stereo” tracks and made sure the remaining tracks was panned to “0”. You might have to bump up the gain/volume on that single track BUT now you shouldn’t have an issue with audio.
Let me know if that works out for you!
Regards,

So I unlinked the camera video/audio, then unlinked “stereo pair”. Went into each track and panned one to the left and the other to right. Exported and I’m still getting the same audio problem.
I then tried deleting one of the the and going into the remaining track and adjusting the panning but no matter what side I panned to, there was no change. I only heard it from one side. Is there something else you think I should try? Do I really need to bring this audio track into Soundtrack Pro?
I’m not sure if it helps but here is a link of screen shots of my project. Might give you some insight that I’m missing.

I think I am having a similar issue as far as “phasing”. This is my first encounter with this so if anybody can walk me though it I’d appreciate it. I apologize is this is a simple fix. I’ll give a little detail.
I shoot product demos with my Canon HF S200. When I import the video into FCP7, the audio tracks look like stereo but they are two mono tracks. I tried to unlink stereo pair and then proceeded to delete one of the tracks (right track deleted). Now the left track remains but only plays out of the left side. I played with the panning and it has no effect of the track.
I’m obviously doing something wrong but can’t figure it out. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

How do you solve this issue? Being out of phase?
These are my settings. Keep in mind the “Canon” clips original audio was 16 bit Integer but I brought it into Soundtrack Pro and when finished it became 32 Bit Floating. I don’t think this has any bearing giving that it happens even when I didn’t edit the original audio.
SETTINGS:
https://i46.tinypic.com/162681h.jpgSo I ended up exporting the project out of FCP7 first using the setting in the link provided. Then I brought that file into compressor and compressed it for YouTube. After uploading to YouTube, I played it on my iPhone 4, and the sound is great , IF I have the headphones plugged in, but when I try to listen to it via the speakers, it drops out and the sound is garbled. So frustrating.

I agree with Tom, this one is basic. I have the same camera and it’s real simple. Fire up FCP and then plug the camera in via USB. Turn the camera on and choose “computer” option on the camera’s touch screen. Then under “File” select “Log and Transfer”. You should see all your clips and then you just have to drag the clips to the transfer box and booYaaaH! Done!

I haven’t “reailly” solved the problem. We did notice that when playing the videos on the Macbook Pros that if the system volume was set to center (0), then it would only play mono, but when you moved to +1 or -1 then the stereo would kick in. Apparently this is a hardware glitch on the MacBooks. As far as other systems, it was totally random. Some systems Windows or Macs, would play the audio just fine and others would have no sound at all. I still don’t know what the mystery was and have gotten no answers from anyone. The only thing I’ve narrowed it down to was the audio from my video clips. I just don’t know how that audio differs from the other audio. I still would love to get some sort of explanation, because I’m at a loss. I’m using a Canon ViXiA HF S200 with a Lavalier Mic. It’s mostly interviews and product demos. I believe it’s being recorded in stereo because it shows up that way when imported and it sounds great when played through FCP 7. Any help would be appreciated.

Ok… i have a couple question. I basically have two nested “groups” in one Main “group”. First question do ALL the groups have to have that option of “fixed size” check? Next, if I’m scaling and repositioning, do I have to have it on 3D or 2D? Sorry if that’s a stupid question.
Just so you know, I went a head and check on “fixed resolution to ALL the groups including the main group and kept it on 2D. When I tried to animate the main group, items still shifted around.
Thanks!

Not sure, but is it possible that not all your scratch disks are assigned to that project folder? If not, then some items might be floating in another folder that your original project was accessing.

What I’m trying to achieve is to hear the VO track in both the Left & Right channels. In my case, I’m doing a VO for a tutorial video and want to hear that VO in Stereo. Really nothing fancy like two vocals needing panning.
I suppose my question would be, if I export the video via Compressor with those VO’s in mono, will they automatically be converted to stereo?

Then what is the reason for some YouTube videos playing just fine via a mobile devices and others or rather mine not playing? I did notice that the imported “.aiff” file that I import for my intro & outro sounds just fine but any original audio from my video tracks don’t play. It’s got to be a setting or something I’m doing wrong with the export process. At least that’s the only thing I can think of. Any ideas???
Thx!
