So I had a right channel static issue at the last show I went to; thinking I had a bad cable connection. I want to see if I can salvage the recording by taking the clean left channel and copying it to make a new 2 channel output but I'm unsure how to do this.
Does anyone know of a good tutorial for this, or can you describe how I go about doing this?
Thanks

To isolate the individual channels, hold your mouse at the end of the track, click on the top half of the left track (bottom half of the right track), then drag it back to the beginning to highlight everything.
Highlight the complete good channel, go to Edit > Copy. Highlight the complete bad channel, go to Edit > Paste.

that's making it harder than it needs to be ;)
start at the very beginning of the file. as said put mouse in top half (or bottom half depending which channel). Then right click, go to "select" then "from cursor to end of track". That will highlight the individual channel. Right click > copy. Then right click again and go to "select" then "right channel only". right click > paste. It's way faster than dragging the mouse to select the channel.

That's easier than dragging the mouse???? How can anything be easier than dragging the mouse? ::)

to drag a mouse for a two hour set takes a while. it takes about 5 secs to right click the way I described.

Wow, thanks guys! Had no idea it was that easy. I'll give it a shot and see how it sounds. Cheers! :)

right click, 'select all' then highlight clean channel right click 'select left or right channel' select clean channel. then right click copy, then select opposite channel cut, then right click and copy/paste clean channel
did i type that correctly? all you have to do is 'cut' bad channel and 'copy/paste' good clean channel
