I have a mic that is (naturally) mono. It is connected to my Windows 7 PC via the mic input (3.5mm). The plug is mono (2 segment). When I hear my recording, sound come out from 1 side of the speakers only.
It seems all the recording option (from Windows's Sound Control Panel) is 2-channels. Is there a way to let Windows know that my mic is not stereo? I suppose I can use software to change the recorded audio to 2 channels but I am using this mic for Skype. Or should I use an adapter to convert mono to stereo? I am concerned that doing so will affect audio quality.
