Hi all,

My question: When recording a guitar track for instance, do you set the track interleave to mono or leave it as stereo or does it not matter?

Thanks

Hi Martins,

In Studio One for instance you have add track. You have the choice of adding a mono track or stereo track.

 So, are you saying when I select insert audio track in Bandlab it's a mono track?

no i mean when you select the input of your track it's supose to be input=left-audio card or right-audio card,

or stereo=input...

the interleave button is post-output..

Aah!! So, what does the interleave do. Why would you use it?

[martsave martin s]

once your track is recorded you use the interleave button to stereo output or mono output..

per ex:the output track-stereo to a reverb FX,that's where the interleave button make a difference.

if you set the interleave mono-the reverb will sound mono..

(i hope you understand what i mean my native is french..LOL

I believe you can use the interleave button Pre or Post recording of a clip as seen in the signal chain diagram below.

I choose to leave it in its default state unless...

1- PRE:  im trying to record a signal with multiple microphones/find phase relationships (Guitar amps)

2- POST: Isolating problems in a mix.

Here is a nice post bitflipper made 6 years ago. Nicely written, and still applicable.

The old forum has a lot of nice insight which you can still search in Google by preceding a search with "site:forum.cakewalk.com" (no quotes), which will lock the search to a given site (can do it for any site that way).
