Hi, I am trying to record a mono track for voice annotation. I can set up a mono track via Modify > Audio Channels, but when I click on the microphone and start recording, it records to the left channel only of a stereo track. How can I either record to a mono track, or record mono to both tracks. Thanks.

The image you show is of a 'standard' track, which is paired mono.
A 'true' mono track has this little icon in it ...
And for voice-overs, that's best done by adding a track via right-clicking the timeline header block, Add Tracks, and delete the video track, and set the audio track type as needed.

Hi Neil,
I did it! I figured out how to add a mono track just like you said. First I dragged my mp4 with its blank audio track (no audio recorded for this video) to the timeline. Then I clicked on the timeline header block, opened Add Tracks, and chose Mono for Track Type. That produced a track with the mono icon for Audio 2. Then I simply deleted the blank audio Audio 1 track. Perfect. Thanks so much.
