Can only get left channel recordings...

Today I bought an M-Audio Fast Track interface. Paired with my Shure mic in Cakewalk, the sound quality is excellent, but there's a catch; all the line-in stuff records in the right channel only, and all the MLR Mic'd stuff records left channel only. Anyone know how to solve this? Mixing the mic's stuff all the way to the right just kills all sound completely, and it's keeping me from doing any recoridng at all....

thanks in advance

You need to set a specific input for the track .. By default, Sonar (I assume that's what you're using) looks for stereo data, so it's expecting both a left and right channel - or, in your case, audio from both the line-in and mic inputs. So when you only give it data on one channel, that data ends up hard-panned left or right.

Right-click on a track, choose Track Properties, and select the appropriate input. Once Sonar knows it's only expecting data from one input, it will set the track to mono and pan the output center.
