Question

Podcast interview only playing one channel in multitrack, but not in waveform

I recorded an interview with two microphones, and I probably messed up the setting on the Zoom H5, because when I listen to it in the multitrack setting, it only has my voice, and the other person recorded with my microphone in the distance, very low volume.

When I switch to the waveform and listen to it there, both channels are fine, and I hear us equally loud.

What can I do to fix this?

Thanks in advance for any reply, I guess I will have to mono mix it somehow. The file is 24 bit depth.

But are both channels identical in Waveform view (with one voice loud and the other distant) or do you have both voices, one on one side and the other, also at full volume, on the other channel?

Both channels look identical, both voices are in both channels in waveform.

Except that they aren't - one channel looks like an inversion of the other one. Try inverting one of the channels (so that the polarity of both of them is the same) and see what it sounds like then...
