Audio playing out of left side only?

I've got a presonus audio box, and for some reason, it plays audio back regularly in the left side. The right side is VERY quiet. It records it perfectly fine, but It refuses to play back properly. I've tried messing with my channel mapping, changing from stereo to mono, and looked for countless other solutions, and nothing. Any help? I know It's something in AA because everything else works fine.

If you only have one mic plugged into the Presonus (or any other USB audio interface) then it will only record into one channel of a stereo pair. In which case you should be only recording a single mic in Mono anyway.

Assuming that you are working in multi-track, then check the position of the panpot in the Master section of the mixer...

Nope, was in a regular session. I'm starting to think it's Presonus though, and the way it's recording. Even in another audio editor, it's only recording to the left side, perhaps it's not audition, but something else.
