Splitting Multi-Channel Audio into Mono Files

You can split interleaved multi-channel audio into separate mono files. Splitting multi-channel events in your project replaces the original event by mono events on lanes.

Procedure

  1. Select a multi-channel audio event in the Project window or a multi-channel clip in the Pool and select Audio > Split Channels.
    Note

    Alternatively, you can select Split Channels from the context menu of the event display or the Pool.

  2. In the Split Channels dialog, change the settings as required.
  3. Click OK.

Result

In the Project window, the multi-channel event is replaced by mono events on lanes of the same track, each containing a discrete channel of the original multi-channel audio. In the Pool, the original multi-channel clip is retained and the created mono clips are added.

After Completing This Task

  • To convert lanes into new tracks, right-click a track and select Create Tracks from Lanes.

  • To move the created events to other tracks, select Edit > Move to > Selected Track or use the corresponding key command.
