Audio editor to edit channels seperately?

[cgannel imbalance] You may find that it would be best to leave it well enough alone. I wish you had quoted more, anyway most cartridges have a channel balance issue, say a dB, as has most preamps, so the first 2 db of imbalance is easily accounted for. As I recall this issue it was about vinyl transfers. Sometimes when I record tape to digital, I've adjusted the amplitudes to even out, but on listening found that the channel that was weaker before now over-powers the other channel. How do you define "even out"? This, despite both channels being the same level. Probably due some off kilter phase characteristics of the recording etc. Most of the time the "same level" is about same average level, but some of the time very transient instruments in one channel off-set the perception, so if all else fails: listen. That said, it is actually quite easy to estimate channel balance by simply looking at the graphical display of the curve form. Give it a good listen first before you commit the change. Always listen, also if it is a cartridge or riaa preamp issue it will be the same difference all the time. I can only remember one vinyl record in my collection that has a serious general imbalance. Phase is not likely to be an issue in this perception context.
