8 Chanels of audio: 5.1 + Stereo
Hey I finished a feature documentary and the distributor is asking for a ProRes 422 export of the film with 8 channels of audio. That is, 5.1 surround with stereo mix all included in the same file.
Most of the tutorials I’ve seen on how to do multichannel audio is expired as in I can’t figure out how to setup a 8 channel sequence or tell Premiere that I want to export all 8 channels.
I tried right click on sequence > modify > audio channels to select “adaptive format” but this doesn’t seem to help.
Outrageous that this is so hard to setup if it such a standard request from VOD distributors.

Thanks! I exported the film as per instructions but for some reason when I open the exported file in QT or VLC, it sounds terrible, like multiple versions of the film are playing out of sync.

I believe what you are looking for is “mixdown” option in the player if only using 2 speakers for playback.
