single-channel recording

Single-channel recording involves capturing audio signals through one microphone or sensor at a time. It records a single source or sound track, such as a voice or instrument, into one audio channel. This approach is often used in situations where simplicity is preferred, or when capturing a specific sound without background noise or other elements. The resulting recording can be combined with other single-channel recordings later to create a multi-layered, stereo, or multi-track mix. Essentially, it’s a straightforward method of recording one sound source at a time, providing clarity and focus on that particular input.
