Thank you for this video, I actually think what most people are looking for can be achieved much better by rendering the track you want to convert and turning on convert to mono in the render menu. When you do this then just re-import the file as a mono track. Works perfectly. This method that you lay out works but it means another plug-in is running on the track which defeats the purpose of converting it back tomorrow so you can have less CPU strain.
Rendering two tracks with playback of a channel in each and then re-importing them is an awfully lame and laborious way to split a stereo track. Audacity efficiently splits a stereo track in two mouse clicks. Surely the more sophisticated Ableton can split a track without making a project of the procedure. No?
@@TheBinaryWolf Logic’s way of doing this is way too complicated as well which is why I use Luna just for that task. One mouse click and the stereo track is split into two mono tracks. I came here to see if Ableton’s way is any better but as I have seen just now it’s absolutely not. I’ll just stick to Luna for that.
im sorry if this is a stupid question, but i dont get what was the problem to begin with. Both guitars sound equally centered to me, before the splitting. I was expecting to hear one on my left earphone, and one on my right. Does CZcams convert to Mono? What am I missing?
My advice for if you want to see it as just showing either the top or bottom is put the utility on the track you want to split. Make sure width is 0% and then choose left or right in the drop down menu. Now make a new audio track and choose the audio input as the track you want to change (over on the right where it says Ext. In on his screen you click the drop down menu and you can choose the audio track you're changing) and then record it. Make sure you click the record circle button on this track you're recording into before you click the start recording button at the top. This will then record just the side you've indicated in the utility. Once this is done change the utility to the other side (left or right) and make a new track and record it again. Then you'll have these two new tracks, each with either left or right side of the original recording. Hope this helps :)
That's cool , but splitting a stereo track into mono you can edit each one in relationship to each other to edit phase relationships. Like overhead mics of a drum kit
Nice Video.Regards from Portugal. I Have a problem i need Help for this Can anyone explain me ? In Protools i bounce several tracks in a group track with all pan worked but i dont Bounce in Stereo, i Bounce in Multiple Mono. Than i Open a project in Ableton Live and import the 2 Mono tracks for 2 tracks in Ableton i assume the 2 tracks together its a Stereo File in ableton right ? in Ableton , the 2 tracks i put in Center ( C ) Than if i want export again the 2 tracks in Ableton but in Multiple mono ? In Ableton i only see ( Stereo ) or ( Mono ) if i export in mono one track than the other i need to change the Pan all to Left and the other track all to R ? Or i export the 2 tracks in Center ( C) Preserve the Stereo fild ? Ableton dont have Multiple Mono L and R Thanks !
@@ALTSProductions panning doesn't isolate just the left or just the right sound, it just pushes the entire sound or recording to the left or the right.

Yeah this guy is a complete tard for trying to first spend minutes promoting himself then when he explains epically fails
is it so hard for Ableton to add a "split stereo to mono" function?
is it now Live 11 and we still don't have this function?
apparently. There are some real idiots in that organization. Of course, now it got bought by someone external.
U can put some hot sauce, goin trough the fader window n adjust los botones de paneo from left - right u´r wishin.

Can't be the best way to achieve this
The method seems disable playback of a L or R channel, not split the track. Is there a way to actually split the L channel from the right?
Hey Victor...thanks heaps for taking the time to put this up. Taking split tracks into Ableton and needed this. PS Your Multitracks sound awsome.
Very helpfull thanks!!
you got it!
So helpful man out of many tutorials i found just what i needed
gr8! glad it could help!
@@Lasvegasvideoproductionservice really thank you and subbed 🤟
Lifesaver! Thank you!
Great video! thanks !
Q though? how do i split it, so i can seperate the upper part from the bottom part in the clip ?

I Have a problem i need Help for this
Can anyone explain me ?
In Protools i bounce several tracks
in a group track with all pan worked
but i dont Bounce in Stereo, i Bounce
in Multiple Mono.
Than i Open a project in Ableton Live
and import the 2 Mono tracks for 2 tracks in Ableton
i assume the 2 tracks together its a Stereo File in ableton right ?
in Ableton , the 2 tracks i put in Center ( C )
Than if i want export again the 2 tracks in Ableton
but in Multiple mono ?
In Ableton i only see ( Stereo ) or ( Mono )
if i export in mono one track than the other
i need to change the Pan all to Left and the
other track all to R ?
Or i export the 2 tracks in Center ( C)
Preserve the Stereo fild ?
Ableton dont have Multiple Mono L and R
Thanks !
which screen recording software do you use?
спасибо братан
Thanks for the help
you got it!
yeah... this doesnt work?
I just did it in real time?
Why not just duplicate the track and just pan one left and one right?
Essentially that is what is happening here anyway... also once creating 2 mono tracks make you adjustments to the r and l sides...

Ableton made this super complicated, so you won't be working with mono tracks. Mono tracks are bad mkay
I alway work with Mono tracks, its just when I get the stems from my distributer for these cover tracks they come that way
this is the longest and complicatest way ive ever seen, to make ONE mono Track. This are 2 Tracks. streched to 5 mins advertising.
Come on, speak about the question
Blah blah blah, get to it.
