In relation to my post Oct 26. I re-imported my project's exported mix into a new cakewalk project using only a stereo track. The track plays exactly as I expect with panned instruments giving the stereo effect I expected, the vocal has the right amount of reverb etc.
I am listening to the original project mix and then the new imported project mix and they are identical within cakewalk using my scarlett 18i20 (outputs via headset and speakers ADAM Audios.) I specifically listened to the intro which has strings and piano panned left in the song.
Once I play the exported file on various media players, groove clip, windows media player, VLC using the focusrite audio interface - the panned imstruments are in the center and the stereo effect on the vocal gone.
I am using an ACER predator i9-8950HK CPU 2.90GHz - 24gig ram - on windows 10
bdickens can you elaborate on your quote above in relation to the exported mix? Any help greatly appreciated.

I have a similar issue during mixdown.
Audio interface is a focusrite - use headphones to listen to the mix and Adam Audio speakers connected to the focusrite.
Mix sounds great on headphones and the speakers - then I export to a wave file using 44100 - 24bit (same as project) - entire mix and listen during mixdown using the render in realtime and audible bounce.
The I playback the mixed wave file on windows media player and the sound appears to have lost some the the reverb and stereo ambience. (sounds flat).

Thanks for the guidance bdickens as further investigation of the windows 10 software gave a simple answer.
In relation to my post Nov 10 2021, it was a windows 10 setting playing my audio in mono and not stereo in case anyone else has a similar issue.
Turn off Mono Audio
Step 1: Right-click on the speaker icon on the bottom right corner of the Taskbar. Click on Open Sound
Step 2: In the Settings window, on the right-side of the pane, scroll down and under Related Settings, click on Ease of Access audio settings.
Step 3: In the next window, on the right side of the pane, scroll down a bit, and turn off the slider under the Turn on mono audio section.
