Question

Nested audio clip only plays mono

When working on a project that contained a multi-cam nest that originally had a mono clip, I replaced the audio clip with a stereo clip.  Now Premiere duplicates one of the channels and treats it as a mono clip.  I checked the source it the clip is indeed stereo, but when playing back on the timeline, it is in mono.

Hi @aaronjonellhall,

We need a few more details to help with the issue like Premiere Pro version you are on and hardware information. Please see How to Report a Problem.

As @R Neil Haugen mentioned, you may have the wrong audio track type. Does it sound similar to this issue, and do you see any little speaker icon on the track header?

Was this created as a multicam sequence from the start or is it a nest or regular sequence turned into a multicam?

Hope we can help you soon,
Dani

Did you add a stereo track to the audio part of the timeline? And did you see the stereo icon in the header block? This can be tricksy to set up.
