Mark1971 Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Hi, I'm not sure if I inadvertently changed a setting or not but I used to be able to put a gain plugin on a stereo midi track, change the instance of the plugin to mono and then when I would bounce it would give me a mono audio track. It's just not working anymore. As a work around I just click the 2 circles and make it one and that changes the channel to mono but the wave form on it stays stereo. It bugs me and wasn't sure if there's another way. I want some mono audio tracks for kick, snares, bass, etc.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplets Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 If you bounce with Command-B or the Logic menu, it will always be stereo. If you wanna bounce a mono file, you have to click the Stereo Out stereo circle to make it mono and then click on the Bounce button next to it. The quickest way, if not the only way.

The problem is, that changes only the input of the channel strip. If the channel strip outputs a stereo signal then you're bouncing a stereo signal. Try to also click-hold the double-arrow that appears to the right of the slot of the first plug-in to make that plug-in mono, then each subsequent plug-in mono as well. In the end, bounce without including Volume/Pan automation and you should get a mono bounce? Let us know if that works or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark1971 Posted May 6, 2022 Author Share Posted May 6, 2022 Hi! Yep, unchecking the vol/pan box did the trick. Ty~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
