Playing Back Multichannel Files
You can play back multichannel les according to your audio device setup. If your setup does not
allow playing back all audio channels, you can play back the multichannel le in stereo.
PREREQUISITE
In the Audio Connections tab, specify the input and output buses and which device you want to
use for audio playback.
PROCEDURE
1. Open a multichannel audio le in the Audio Editor or Audio Montage.
2. Start playback.
If your audio device setup was set up correctly, the multichannel le is played back. If your
audio device setup does not allow playing back all channels of the multichannel le, the
Incomplete Audio Device Connections dialog opens.
3. In the Incomplete Audio Device Connections dialog, do one of the following:
● To stop playback, click Stop (No Playback).
● To open the Audio Connections tab and make changes to your audio device setup, click
Open Audio Connections.
● To start playback but mute all channels that cannot be played back, click Continue
(Some Audio Channels Will Be Muted).
● To play back the multichannel audio le in stereo, click Activate the Master Section
"Mix to Stereo" Option for Playback.
NOTE
Consider using the plug-in MixConvert V6 in the Master Section instead to mix the
multichannel
le to stereo.
