The problem is I like to mute my vocal track as I am recording and unmute it when I want to play it back. When I open a track on pro tools and get ready to record on a mono track, it seems like it all goes to sample once I enable record on the track and it seems like all the vocals shift in the center as I am recording.

And its not the headphones because one I tried it on different headsets and its the same results. My issue is when I press the red button on my box to turn on the mic, it automatically starts picking up sounds and vocals but it only plays through the left ear. I use the Scarlett 2i4 red box and its pretty good so far. Ok so I have a mic and it runs into my interface box which runs into my computer.

Ok the problem I am having is sort of complicated, at least from what I can see.
