Thanks for the reply.

There are mono sounds that are located positionally. They do sound like they are coming from the right places.

The stereo sources never get their locations set. So when the music (stereo) sounds are played I'm getting reports that it comes out as mono in OpenALSoft.

The version we upgraded to is 1.14. Which did fixed some windows crashes. It seems like the last version used, that did work, was 1.1.

Thanks in Advance
