Ableton Forum

Not sure where the mono area is on ableton.
I think thats the problem.

I mean I record and I flip on the mono button on my USB to hear
but when the recording is done its on one side.

Hello Rick sims,

On the trak you are recording to, in the In/out section (maje sure it is visible from the View menu), in the second drop-down menu from the top, you have to choose either "Input 1" or "Input 2" insteadt of "Input 1&2".

Kind regards,
Amaury

I have ableton live 4 so it doesn't have that option.
I recorded on another recording program and it didn't have the same
problem, so thats why I think its somthing in ableton.

Hi,

I have Live 4 opened and it has this option
You may need to go to the Preferences, Audio pane, and click the "Input config" button: there, you can activate/deactivate mono and stereo inputs. Activate them all, and now, on the audio track input chooser, choose "Ext In", and in the drop down menu below you should be able to choose "Input 1" or "Input 2".

Regards,
Amaury

THANKS Amaury
That did the trick. Guess I'm gonna have to get used to doing that.
Take Care
Rick
