Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I did a phone interview using my audio recorder that makes two seperate mono tracks. When uploading the file to FCPX, it made it one stereo track. I want to split that stereo track into two separate mono tracks but cannot figure out how to do this.

I tried that Tom, over and over again, but it did not work. The audio file in the Timeline still had both of our voices on one track. Now, there would be two tracks, but one track was empty....no audio file.
I'm expecting to see two audio tracks in my Timeline: one with my voice track on it which I can then edit all by itself, and then a second audio track with the other person's voice on it that I can then separately edit. I should be able to do this because I recorded the phone interview on my own audio recorder that has two channels: one track for my voice and another track for the other person's voice.
But when I import this audio file into FCPX, it automatically makes it stereo. Going into the audio configuration and selecting "dual mono" does not split it into two seperate tracks in the timeline: it keeps my voice and the other person's voice on one single track.
Use the expand audio components function.
You should be able to change the clip to dual mono in audio configurations in the Audio inspector.
Can you post some screenshots, timeline, audio configuration. What are you expecting to see?
Thanks, Tom! That was it.
