How do I record in Mono?

Maybe a dumb question, but how do I record in mono? I searched the manual, found a few posts about it saying to "press the Stereo button" (where is that?), or converting stereo to mono, but can't figure it out. Thanks! Scott

Hi, when you go to WavePad > Preferences > Recording, you'll have an option to choose which recording device you'd like to use.

By default, most microphones record in Mono. If your device records otherwise, let us know, or you may file a ticket here:

You can go to Options (Preferences on Mac), and on the general tab, under when creating a new file you have the option to set the Sample rate and the channels, there you can set either mono or stereo.

Hi @[deleted], that is exactly what I was looking for, thanks! (Thanks to @[deleted] also, though I'm not using a microphone.)
