In FCP7, tracks are numbered sequentially in the Timeline.  

You determine the output in the Sequence Settings dialog.  If stereo, odd numbered tracks go the left channel, and even to the right.

Pr from around CS5.5 and MC around version 5 or 6 started handling stereo tracks in the timeline.  But earlier versions and FCP7 just display mono tracks in the timeline, but output stereo through export or hardware.

I guess FCP7. Whatever the latest was before FCPX. What do you mean it doesn't do stereo tracks? If I bring the original clip into FCP, it shows two channels with different audio on each channel. It's only the rendered AE file that comes in as two mixed down mono channels playing the same audio.

You didn't say what version, but FCP7 doesn't do stereo tracks.

> We ran across an issue when rendering stereo audio out of After Effects. If I bring the rendered file into a Final Cut Pro sequence, it sees the audio as a mono pair. If I bring the clip into AE again, it shows the correct stereo output. I can't figure out why FCP sees the AE renders this way. If the same clip is exported from FCP or Quicktime it seems to work properly. Does anyone know of something I can do differently in AE to get FCP to read the stereo pair correctly?
