I have a "bad habit" of sometimes singing slightly off-center of my mic (due to the physical setup of my desktop studio). I'm looking for a convenient way to "re-center" my track--is there a way to do this? I use RB as my DAW and use Audacity for touchups after my mix. Thanks.
Also--how do you attach a picture, like a screenshot, to a message on this forum? Thx.

How you sing into your microphone should have no bearing on where your vocal sits in your mix. That is a function of the track in your DAW. If it is centered, you could sing turned 90 degrees from your microphone if you choose to (and it would remain centered in your mix).
To add a picture use the "Switch to Full Reply Screen" button.
(An original post should put you there already)
Then click on "File Manager" at the bottom. (mine is a very faint blue - so "active")
Click on "Browse" to find a picture on your computer.
Then click the "Add" button.

floyd nailed it and even if your vocal track was recorded in “stereo“ via one mic or converted to same afterwards the left and right sides would be identical irrespective of your position relative to the mic.

The track you send me recently was a stereo file. You'll notice it came back to you as a mono track.
When you set up your inputs, don't select stereo unless you actually have 2 mics connected properly. I always select the LEFT Saffire audio input. It doesn't matter left or right, just pick one and that's the input you should have your mic in. Your software should automatically put the audio dead center of the track. It doesn't matter how you sit or approach the mic.... it's all going to the input to the track centered.
Note: You can hang upside down when you sing if you want to reverse the phase on the track..... just kidding.

In Band-in-a-Box, you can go to the Audio menu and choose Edit Audio > Convert Channels. This can convert your uncentered stereo track to a centered mono track.

Another option for studio one users is the binaural pan plugin just add it to the track and click the mono button. I’m sure most DAWs have one of these type toys

Upgrading to Band-in-a-Box® 2020 is Easy!
Did you know... anyone who has owned a previous version of Band-in-a-Box® is entitle to upgrade pricing - you do not need to have your old version installed!
Maybe you used to own the Windows version, but you now have a Mac... that's not a problem either!
(or if you owned the Mac version, and now you have a Windows computer)
In both cases, you would purchase from the "Upgrade from 2018 or earlier or crossgrade" row here for a new Mac version, or here if you want the newest Windows version. Just need to upgrade your 2019 version? Use the "Upgrade from 2019/2020" row.
When you purchase your upgrade from either of these rows, you will receive a complete installation - just follow the steps of the setup, and your Band-in-a-Box® will be ready to use!
PG Music Inc. shopping cart accounts were not required to purchase from our website prior to October 29, 2014. With that in mind, you may have to create an account in order to upgrade - that's OK! You'll still be entitled to upgrade pricing.
