cool thanks i'll try all that stuff.. awesome

guess what.. i just checked it.. cakewalk has a setting to turn on the channel i usually just put it at stereo just because i wanted the output to be stereo.. but it also has a left and a right.. i thought just picking left would give it mono panned left audio... i was wrong.. putting the setting on left.. fixed the problem.. thanks for helping me overcome my own stupidity.. awesome!! haha..  i can't believe i did that lol!!
