Audacity - Convert Stereo to Mono

[AndalayBay]

I just found out how to do this, so I'll document it here for future reference.

There are two methods for converting stereo to mono:

1. Split track method - Select Split Stereo to Mono from the Audio Track Drop-down menu. That's the downward pointing arrow right next to the name of the audio track to the left of the display to the audio track itself. You can use this method if there's little variation between the two channels.
2. Mix track method - If there's variation between the two channels that you want to preserve, use the mix track method. Select both channels by pressing CTRL+A. Select Mix > Mix Stereo Down to Mono from the Tracks menu at the top of the screen.

For anyone who doesn't already know, here's the settings to save for Oblivion.

 

Export to MP3, and under Options select constant bitrate, 64kbs, joint stereo
