Hello,
I can't select a stereo input anymore, I have to choose either L or R and just can't restore previous configuration to the true stereo input from the mixer. Do you you have an idea about what i messed up?
Thank you !

Are you Windows or Mac? Loaded audio or sound device? Hardware or virtual cable? If a stereo input comes into magic, it comes in as left and right, it's never mixed it to a single channel.

Thank you for your answer , I'm windows it is the same for sound device and loaded audio, music is played and recorded with a zedi10 (I re installed the drivers in case) ? Does it means a stereo source is always separated into two different sources; I was pretty sure before I could choose between several stereo input now I have to choose only one canal of the stereo source.

A stereo source will always available as two channels in Magic. A 5.1 source would be available as 6 channels. It has always been this way.
For audio files and stereo sources you will need two rows in Input Sources - if you only have one slot, just add another for the second channel.

- 2 channels for the input audio

Magic will normally start up with as many rows as are needed for the default device. If this is not the case for you, perhaps do a "Reset All Settings..."
Perhaps you're remembering Stereo Mix - which is a driver thing. If you've updated the driver, perhaps this feature is no longer available to you.
