Note:
When you’re working with multichannel files, only the selected region in the selected channel is processed. Most functions can
be applied to an individual channel or all channels. However, because the channels in a multichannel file must be equal in length,
functions that affect the length of the data cannot be performed on individual channels. These functions include Insert Silence,
Resample, Time Stretch, Gapper/Snipper, Pitch Bend, and Pitch Shift (without preserving duration).

If you want to apply one of these processes in a single channel, convert the file into separate mono files (you can select a channel and
drag it to the Sound Forge workspace to create a new file quickly), apply the process, and merge the files into a new multichannel file.
