Choose Process > Channel Converter to change the number of channels in an audio file. The Channel Converter dialog can also be used to reverse the channels of a stereo file or intermix the channels of a multichannel file to create interesting panning effects.

To perform quick channel conversion without specifying the mix, use the Channels box in the File Properties tool. For more information, see "Viewing and editing file properties."
