choose your favourite audio editor (Soundforge, CoolEdit, Goldwave, Audacity or Wavelab) or any else... and then if you open up your sample you can see two chans or just one...most of them have a kind of conversion..

Ok I see two chans..but it still sounds like mono..what can I do to make it sounds more like stereo?

If it's the same audio on both channels then there's not much you can do to make it stereo. Maybe different FX on each channel, but that's all I can think of........


Waits for Diginut to outsmart me yet again......

well it might be a mono sample which someone converted to stereo (that usually means that there are left and right chans which are both the same though)

you can use a stereo enhancer maybe...

or just adjust one or the other chans volume...
you can use an envelope generator on one of the channels (or both)

not much more i can think of

Some ways to get it stereo:

Load your sample up into two different samplers, pan one sampler hard left, the other hard right, and create subtle differences between the settings on the two samplers... centigrade, lfo, you name it. Get it sounding good. Maybe try more than two samplers, putting highpass/lowpass/bandpass filters on them and panning those so you get certain frequencies panned to sides, etc.

Just get creative with it

oh right, I thought only from the point of it being loaded in soundforge for example

well mate, i've created this sample myself with Pro-53

what is stereo enhancer?

i've already added EQ and it still sounds like mono

can u try to explain it more please?

btw, im using Wavelab

You could shift one channel a few ms.
Or try playing around with pan envelope effects.
Stereo delay might also work, depending on what kind of sample it is.

Originally posted by RIPassion I think you're thinking it a little different terms than I am. Not in a bad way. I think you're thinking (correct me if I'm wrong) "I want this to sound stereo! It sounds like it's panned right in the middle." Well, it may already be stereo and is just dead center. If you have a stereo track in which the left stereo file and the right stereo file are exactly the same, it will appear completely mono and right in the middle (the middle called a "shadow image" among other things). So what I think you're aiming for is a stereo SOUNDING file, not just a stereo file by definiton. I'm not a wavelab user, but I think doing what I just described would be a pain in the ass to do. Do you have any software sampler/sequencer? (you should if you're in the production forum...). Tell me which program you use and I can give exact instructions. Email me the file at [email protected] and I'll mail it back stereo-i-fied. I'll use reason or cubase or something.

im using reason 2.5 dude.
and the problem is in the lead sample only.

Got your email... I'll try to help asap... if you could send me the lead sample your using I can email you back a reason file and that would be a lot easier.

Hey. Well, if you go back to the days when synths only output a mono sound, to get a good stereo effect, composers would use chorusing. If set properly, it can be fairly transparent. Stereo enhancers are all over the place though. Definitely check into them because they can add a good wide sound to the sample. The other possibility is to use two sends, and like a lot of other people here were saying, try adding different effects to each the right and left of the mono sample to give it the appearance of it being stereo.

Cheers,
Zac
