In this video I show how to split a three channel wav file from a Sound Devices recorder into separate tracks. A common task for audio/video post production sound editing.
More tips on audio and video editing workflow are coming up!

Well, again, something new learned today in Reaper :0)
Great tut Jon, many thanx !! -
I do a lot of stereo to mono work.
I have 2 keycommands that select either left or right mono channels of any item. 1 keycommand for mono sum and a custom action that duplicates the item on the same track, 1 with the mono L and the other with mono R.
Can you recommend me a custom action where I can duplicate an item on the track below instead of next to it on the same track?Thank you and keep up the great community support for this amazing DAW!

Hi !
Please download this and then import to your Action list. (Your Action list will NOT be wiped out :0)
These 2 custom made actions can duplicate an Item below or even above the track that it is on.
Hope this helped !

It can be done with custom actions.
something like:
– copy items
– move cursor to start of item
– insert new track
– paste items/tracksYou may also want to try the action “explode multichannel audio or MIDI to new one-channel items”

Thanks for that, the “explode multichannel” option was exactly what I needed for my project. Just got done recording a multitrack with a couple lavs and a shotgun mic and needed to separate each for post.

Very informative, but you lose the stereo L&R by putting both in one channel. Is there a way to output the voice channel to a headset and the stereo to speakers? Thanks
