I have some old cassettes that I recorded on four distinct tracks like the old NLS tapes. I want to record the separate tracks in Audacity. Here is the problem. As I run a cassette through one side, it obviously records the left track forward and the right track backward due to the NLS format. I went into the context menu and selected separation of the stereo tracks. I then went back into the context menu and selected the left track, which is the forward track. I went back a third time and selected mono. This was effective in giving me the forward left track in the middle, but I cannot get rid of the backward track on the right side. What steps am I missing to separate these tracks so that they can be saved in a forward direction in separate files?
