Stereo problems with Logic Pro X

Hello community,


I have upgraded from Logic Pro 9 to Logic Pro X. In Logic 9, I could bounce my track and when I listened to it, it was stereo just like I have recorded. I bounced to .mp3.


Now in Logic Pro X, when I bounce the same track to .wav or .mp3 I am not getting any stereo sound.


But when I listen to my track before I bounce, it is in stereo. I try searching all the internet, what I found was that the Universal Trackmode must be enabled in Audio Preferences, but I could not find that checkbox.



What can I do to bounce to stereo?



Thanks for all your help!

Logic Pro X, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)

Universal Track Mode can no longer be disabled in LP X, so that's not it. There must be a routing problem.

Try bouncing by clicking the Bounce button on your Output Channel Strip.

Also check that this Output CS is in stereo mode User uploaded file (although it must already be, if you hear stereo when playing Logic).

Thanks for your answer.


I did it now like you said. If I play the song in iTunes, it is now in Stereo. But when I open a new Project in Logic and load the bounced track it is in mono again. I wanna have my whole track as an audio file, to finally master it.


Any ideas?

I'm late to this discussion but this is the only mention of this phenomenon I have seen. It seems when dragging split stereo files into a LP X document the channel strip defaults to mono. In LP 9 the channel strip recognises that it is a stereo file and conforms accordingly. I can't replicate this with interleaved stereo though which seems to behave in LP X

Hey Brotschinken,

I have the same problem, all my instrument channel strips are stereo, so Output channel.

When I bounce 'Project or Section..." as PCM-AIFF, Interleaved or Split, my bounce track imported into a new Mastering Project, always is Mono.

Can you explain me how to bounce it to Stereo?
