Editing Individual Channels

At times, you may want to edit only one channel of a stereo file. Normally both channels are edited simultaneously (as in applying reverb to a waveform). You can, however, edit channels independently by disabling the left or the right side. To do so, simply click near the top (for the left channel) or bottom (for the right) of the waveform. When you do so, the mouse cursor acquires an L or an R letter respectively. When you see, for example, letter R in the right channel, click and the left channel will be disabled. To return to stereo editing click on the disabled channel. When pasting, the audio data is overlapped with what is already there, since inserting only in one channel will put the channels completely out of phase.
