I have recorded some vocals using 2 mics and both sides of the track recorded, but on playback I only hear the left side. Am I doing something wrong?

John,

What software have you used to record the vocals?

Regards,
Noel

I'm using Real Band. Using 2 SM58 mics. Listening to playback with headphones.

Welcome to the friendliest, most musically knowledgeable site on the planet. Some folks on here could swap theory with you at a thousand paces but choose to hang their credentials and egos at the door upon entering.

You are encouraged to ask any questions without fear of being flamed or criticized, we were all newbies at one time.

John, pardon if it seems like a ridiculous question... Did you check your setup outside RealBand on mp3 or youtube? Both channels are ok for playback?

The reason I mentioned this... I almost destroyed headphone jack a few days ago. So when stuff like your happens, that I do not understand, I usually follow this protocol.

1) Close out of all programs, listen to plain mp3 on windows media player. If unhappy stuff is still happening, I would try to restart PC. Usually that solves step #1

2)If step #1 was successful, I would open "troubled" software and look closely at mixer balance?... If mixer does not solve it try external interface (UMC204HD, I assume) proprietary software driver setting, if there is an issue with L / R channels?

Let us know if you figure it out.

Boy do I feel stupid. I tried playing a BB file thru the audio interface and got the same result. Turns out, my headphone jack is stereo, but the 1/4 adapter I plugged into the interface was only mono. The only reason I'm copping to this right now is because some other noob will probably have the same problem somewhere down the line and I'd like to save him some headaches.
(Sigh)

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
