Can you: - make a safety copy of the seems-ok stereo file so the original one does not get changed - make a reverse stereo copy of it (ie the audio data should remain the same but left will be on the right, and right on the left), by: C:\>"path\to\sox\sox.exe" "seems-ok-file.wav" "seems-ok-reversed.wav" remix 2 1 - then find out if the reversed by sox seems-ok file can load into SO without an error - then re-reverse it, so C:\>"path\to\sox\sox.exe" "seems-ok-reversed.wav" "seems-ok-reversedagain.wav" remix 2 1 and test that (which should audio-wise) be the same as the original one. Can you then put the reversed and reversedagain files online somewhere for me to download. I'm sorry, but I think it won't be until later tonight before I have an opportunity to look at this in more detail. -- Jeremy Nicoll - my opinions are my own ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot
