Hello Forum Members!
I have a sudden issue with my panning and what I hear with my head phones. Listening to a track in BIAB works fine, i.e. I get sound coming out of each headphone.
Importing the same track into RB - and suddenly I hear the sound mainly in my left headphone. The meter moves accordingly, depending on where I pan in the level meter; but even when I pan hard right the sound in my headphones remains on the left with only a faint sound coming from the right. I have tried different headphones - no success. My audio settings on my laptop seem to be fine.
This is really bugging me now as I cannot experiment with the panning. I have emailed support - but any advice from you will be much appreciated.

I just copied a jazz style arrangement over from BIAB to RB - same thing: In BIAB I can pan the instruments perfectly (i.e. the sax playing the lead). Imported into RB - when I pan the sax to the right - the sound slowly disappears. As I pan further to the left it increases.
Hope this helps as additional information.

sorry tina - that was the only thing i could think of. my BIAB tracks play fine in RB and the panning works.
are you using the latest version of RB - there's a build 3b out. the nuclear option of course is to restore default settings under options but as its a quick process to reconfigure RB that may be worth a try.
quick update - RB v3b is listed on the support page but no download available as yet

Thanks Bob Calver for trying to help. I have tried restoring default settings and believe I have the latest avail versions. Will continue attempting to find a solution as otherwise I cannot successfully complete my songs.
If anyone else can advise what settings to check (seems like I have checked them all but you never know...) please shout out.

Is the MONO button enabled on the Mixer window?
Just a quick guess.
Or in your Prefs-Audio-Drivers window is there a left and right output selected in RB?

FIX: Finally found the solution via a YT video: had to go to Ease of Audio Access and switch ON "turn on mono audio" (combines left and right audio channels into one channel).
