I am officially taking advantage of the gear threads now.
It used to be where my guitar would be on one speakers and my drums on another (not what I was goin for, tics the hell out of me on headphones), and my vocals with the guitars on one side. I got everything on both sides now except the drums. See if you can find my problem. Here are my recording processes:
I mic drums with one overhead sm57 and a boundary mic (yeah, im poor sorry) and run that through a small mixer both panned in the middle, and the boundary mic is ran mono, so I realize that the boundary should be on one side, but I get it all on one side. I then put the songs in an ableton live demo or garageband. They are both panned in the middle there as well, but still only come out one speaker. I try turning the pan left and right but all it does is make it louder on the side its on or turn it off completely. I run from the mixer to my computer straight to the mic input from the control room out/headphones jack. I don't see why I don't have stereo sound from the overhead sm57. So yeah, what is going on?

Oh.. had that problem a couples of time... what program are you using?? One things for sure, its not the mic. I think you have to change mono/stereo settings of each tracks,
Otherwise, an E-Z way is (lets say its only on left ) to copy the left-side, and paste it into the right-side of the track

if you have that same problem with two different programs....abbleton and garageband....then its probably not the program thats doing it
it might be something with your mixer, or your computer

actually I figured this one out today. The mono to stereo converter was bent up. So that was very stupid. Oh well.
