Help, Please,

Is anyone having this problem? I’ve been having it in BIAB Windows 2022 Builds 918 and 920. I have to keep reinstalling Build 914 to avoid having this issue.

I am trying to record a vocal so I can get playback in both channels. A problem I had not had until Build 918 and now Build 920. The Playback of the vocal/audio is only in one channel. I have the audio settings as shown below:

Audio track type for this song: Mono
Preferred default track type for new songs: Mono
Record using: Both Channels

After the recording, BIAB has changed the Audio track type for this song to Stereo. I am using 1 mic entering a mono signal and BIAB changes it to Stereo,

I am using the Focusrite audio device in Windows 11 OS.

I’ve contacted PGMusic’s support team about this issue many times but still have not gotten this issue resolved.

I’m I missing a setting somewhere? It seems like maybe an environmental setting change in BIAB has happened somewhere after Build 914.

Thanks for any help on this. It's been very frustrating. I've been a BIAB user since it's DOS days.

Is it BIAB that's changing it to stereo or Win 11?

Hi Alsky,

I'm having the same issue. Did you ever find out the problem? It just started to happen and I haven't made any updates to BIBI. I did one time thought I fixed it but I forgot what I did.

Thanks,
Ray

the best way to resolve these type of issues is to..
post pics of the folowing..

1. your win recording n'playback settings includeing advanced settings.
2. your sound device user control panel settings.
what sound device do you use ??
3. your biab audio settings/prefs.

over many years the above is the best way ive found for people to help the person haveing the problem..otherwise its mostly guesswork on the part of people trying to help. the more details the better.

the above will also help pg support also.

maybe it is a biab internal bug problem, but it would help if you posted the pics back. its a process of elimination.

best

om

Until the issue is resolved, here's how to convert the stereo recording to mono in BIAB:

Open the Audio Edit Window
Open Edit
Select Convert Channels
Using the default 50/50 settings - Click OK
It appears nothing happened - repeat the Convert Channels and click OK

The stereo channel should be converted to a mono channel.
