Win Media Player

Well, I was doing a little mindless tinkering (like, I don’t remember how to undo whatever it is I did) with my WMP and now I can’t hear the lyrics clearly. I hear the music perfectly and hum along with the opening strains, yet when the words are to begin it’s just me singing along to the track. Great if it was karaoke but not with all my audio files. It does this on every one so I ass-u-me that I changed something within the player and not the formatting of the tune.

Any advice please? This is driving me crazy. I guess I could delete all the songs and copy the originals back into the playlist, but if it’s just a setting I’d sure like to fix it like that! Thx all!

This effect is quite common when the left and right channels are mixed together. Bad audio cable hookups can cause this in particular, so check that first.

But you can also check in the software to see if you have somehow switched to an mono-audio mode.
