I've just updated from Sonar 6 to the 6.2 patch, and I'm having major issues. I'm going from my guitar to my POD, into the first input on my Presonus firestudio. I've got the track input set to Firestudio Left Mono input 1, and then I recorded a nice guitar track.

But...

It won't pan correctly. I pan it hard left, and I can still hear it right. Yeah, it seemed to pan 'some' as the volume is up more in the left ear, but it's still loud enough in the right ear that I can't properly pan.

Help please?? Input monitoring is off, btw.

Is the track in SONAR a mono track?
 
Yes it is. Also I have the pan law set to the default, "0db center, sin cos taper, constant power"

Also, it's track panning and not clip panning. And there are no effects on it. If that info helps....
 
Is this the only track that has this problem?
Does your sound card have a software mixer that may be set wrong for output/input panning?
 
All tracks have the same problem... I have been working on this for hours and hours, still can't figure it out.

Play a file in your media player,pan it with your soundcard software and see if that's okay.
 
In case you haven't solved the issue yet: This is almost always because of routing. You're either routing the track to a mono bus that's panned off-center, or the track is routed to an effect send panned to one side or the other.

Note the track's current output (probably "master"). Then change the output to go directly to your firestudio. If that solves the issue, then you know the problem is with the original output bus (i.e. "master")
 
If worse comes to worse,copy the offending track into a new project or track and check it out there.
