Hi everybody,
Though I try to record or synthesize most of my assets, sometimes I just need to grab items from libraries out there. In most of those cases, the original files are stereo, but I generally need to assign them to game objects that are single specific audio sources. Before I import the assets to Wwise, I normally do the layering and production work in my DAW, but I get some harsh phasing and aliasing issues when doing a simple mono-mixdown. I understand I'll lose the depth and richness of the stereo image, but I wanted to know if you can recommend a healthier, less harmful way of converting a stereo original audio file to mono.
I love the Wwise downmix conversion algorithm, but I need to do all the layering and sound design work in my DAW first.
Thank you so much in advance!
