Exporting a surround mix
When you have set up a surround mix, you can choose to export it using the Export Audio Mixdown function.
You have the following export options when working with a surround configuration:
Export to “split” format, resulting in one mono audio file for each surround channel.
Export to interleaved format, resulting in a single multi-channel audio file (e. g. a 5.1 file, containing all 6 surround channels).
On Windows, you can also export a 5.1 surround mix to a file in Windows Media Audio Pro format.
This is an encoding format tailored for 5.1 surround.
