Been exploring with Soundbooth - imported stereo audio - and saw that 1 section only had channel 1. All I wanted to do was copy the section of channel 1 audio and paste it into channel 2 audio below channel 1.
Keyboard/Menu exploring and the help file failed to get me to understand how to do that - which I would have thought would have been almost intuitve in the program.

If it's like Audition, all you have to do is right click on the channel you want to copy to and then "mixdown either stereo or mono" ... I might suggest that you read the help file for soundbooth ... Personally I think it is a low grade audio editor and you would be best served by upgrading to Audition ........ WILLIE

Thanks Willie. However, in that respect I don't think it is like Audtion - and I read and searched the help file and can't find anything on working in seperate audio channels - hence the reason for my post.

OK, Try this ... Do a mixdown of the original track see if you can delete the channel you don'want ... Repeat for the other channel this way you have the right and left channels on seprate tracks ... If soundbooth won't do this then E-mail me at loganonestudio@aol.com and we will find another way to get the job done ............... WILLIE

Thanks again Willie. I started looking at the Adobe forums to see if there was an answer - and found "Single-channel editing was a feature we were unable to include in version 1.0 of Soundbooth."
I was using soundbooth cause it came with CS3 - and I wanted to see how it worked. Just thought single channel editing would be a feature - can't imagine that it is not. It wasn't that I couldn't get it done - it was that I couldn't get it done in Soundbooth - and it was driving me nuts not to be able to find it.
I'll fire up Audtion2 and it's a piece of cake - as it should have been in Soundbooth.

The bottom line here is that Adobe put a really crappy audio editor in CS3, Why? I was told by a tech working on Audition 3.0 that they were getting complants that Audition was just too much program for a good number of video guys ... Oh well that's life ............ WILLIE
