I've used the paste special menu, but it just doesn't turn out like I hoped. I have a concert recording where the singing and guitar is more to one side of the audio track than another. It's difficult to listen to like that, and I don't want to discard the stereo image because of the audience ambience. What I figured on doing was having one file be where the audio is on the left side mostly, and taking the exact same thing and swapping channels for the other file. So we have two files, one where the audio leans towards the left with audience ambience happening on the right, and the other file which is the exact opposite, with the audio leaning towards the right and audience ambience to the left. I figured I'd select all the data in one of the files, which one doesn't really matter, then flip over to the other file and use the paste special menu. I select mix, and then select the normal voiceover mode. The result leans one way or the other, and doesn't balance out. This sounds like it should work in theory. Is there something I've done wrong? If I did a straight channel copy, then that means losing the ambience on the channel where the guitar and voice are less prominent. Would I have to cancel out the less prominent channels first, then add them back in later? Any help would be appreciated, as I'd like a nice balanced recording.
