How on earth are you going to pan a sound that only exists out of one channel ? You'll need 2 channels to create an unbalanced left - right effect. The MASTER track is stereo (has 2 channels). Individual tracks need only be mono. You pan things to a position on the master. A stereo image can be cre...
