Seperate Track Recording

Posted on

Member Since: Mar 13, 2005

I have sound Forge 7, but do not seem to be able record 2 seperate tracks and make a sterio composition with it. What I am trying to do is record speaking in the left ear, then a track with the answers in the right ear.

I am really novice at this so I apoligize for such a simpleton question but would appreciate any input how to do this.

I have a sterio headset/mic, creative Audigy 2 ZS Pro and sound forge. I see no way to record as left channel only. Then record the second side with something different as right channel. Making together a sterio output.

Thx

I'm not sure I understand the question but I'll give it a try...

you want to use the left output to playback the music and the right output to play back what you just recorded?

Yes, I am trying to record questions on one track, then record answers on the other so the question is in the left ear and the answer is in the right ear

Thx

welcome to HRC .

I've never used SF, but I do have Acid 4.0 and Vegas 4 , and they all seem to work very much the same. Record each track speratly, then pan left or right in SF. If I'm not mistaken the pan control will be right by the vol control of each track.

I have vegas also, did not see how to record audio in it, but did create 2 tracks and brought in files to each track so when I played it back it went left ear, right ear. Did not see a way to save the audio though. Is it easier in acid?

Thx Ted

Isn't Vegas just a file > export function to dump the data to a typical wave file? It's been a long time since I have used Vegas so my memory may be failing, but it's something like that...

Use one track ( say track 1) for questions.
Use track two for answers
