Hi Well, I atempted this, and either I'm doing something wrong, or sound forge is misbehaving. I think what needs to happen is the source files i have need to be in one channel only, but again, there's the rub, i'm not sure how to do that. In this instance, the production would sound something like this...
you would hear a sound in the left channel *only* and then you would hear a voice in both channels, followed by a sound that appears in the right channel *only* So you get that kind of effect where it bounces all over the place. I know writing it out doesn't do it justice, but that's what it would sound like. What happens when I use the tab key and the sound only plays through one channel, it only plays through that channel as long as it's set that way. I basically need to take 2 of these sound clips, and mute one channel in each of them. I hope I've explained this right? Thanks.
