borate Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Is there a means to export a single (stereo) channel in MONO? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n1x1 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 WavePad can convert a file's sample rate or number of channels. This change applies to the whole file (you cannot change just parts of the file). To convert the sample rate of the current file use the menu Edit -> Convert Sample Rate and select the new sample rate. The sample rate must be between 6000 and 192000 samples per second. Typical sample rates are displayed in the pull down list. To convert the channels of the current file (stereo to mono or vice versa) select Edit -> Convert Channels. A typical reason for converting the sample rate down is when you know it is going to be used on the telephone (8000 mono) or if you are about to compress the file for internet transmission (e.g., GSM takes 11025 or 8000 mono). For a broad explanation about sample rates see General Audio Concepts [http://help.nchsoftware.com/help/en/wavepad/win/concepts.html] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted January 23, 2023 Author Share Posted January 23, 2023 The object here isn't conversion, but a mono export (Save) of a single component channel. Thanks for the shout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRM Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Please note that after you convert the file to mono you can select save as the file and this will end up creating a new file with the new mono channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted January 25, 2023 Author Share Posted January 25, 2023 Yes, but the left and right channels are not separate, but mixed into MONO. What's sought here is an individual mono file for each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanP Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Once you have added the audio file on WavePad, you may go to 'Edit' tab then select 'Split'>'Split into Components Channel', if the file originally in stereo, there will be new added tabs on WavePad. In total, there will be 3 tabs, the original file, the left channel and right channel. You may then save them separately as mono or as you prefer.
