I am making a backing track. I used Reason to record keyboard parts and created a click. I exported each track as a wav file and then imported into Studio One 3 and made the rest of the tracks. I pan the click (Reason) and the vocal cues/intro (made in Studio One 3) hard left and I can still hear the vocal cue and click faintly in the right channel but still will be noticeable when played through front of house. I did not use the ReWire route.

Also the keyboard audio can be heard at full volume on the left side after panning hard right. Not a big deal for this situation but shouldn't be that way. These files were also made in Reason, exported as a wav file and then dragged into Studio One 3

Even the mono guitar tracks recorded in Studio One can be faintly heard on the left channel when hard panned right.

I am using:

Mac OSX 10.11.6

PreSonus Studio One 3 Professional version 3.3.4

PreSonus AudioBox 44vsl

Please help. Thank you in advance.

When you bounce your stems in reason, make sure to do them in mono and not as stereo tracks. This means you'll need to do two bounces per track and you'll end up with dual mono and panning each track in Studio One to get the effect you need.

Thanks Alex for the response.
I did do that with the Reason files. Also, one piece of audio i recording in Studio One 3 also does the same thing. It can also be heard on the right, thought slightly, when panned hard left.
Any other thoughts or suggestions? I am stumped.

Im having the same problem, only difference is I made the tracks in Studio One and exported them mono. The clicks and callouts I'm using are all mono, even set the track to mono for good measure but they can still be heard faintly in the right side when hard panned left. Does anyone have a fix for this yet?

I am having the same issue with mono wav tracks I imported into my S1 3 pro project. Any guidance would be awesome!
