  • Any way to segregate center channel?

    Posted by Keith Huntington on May 1, 2011 at 4:53 pm

    so i am doing a wedding (my own, for kicks and giggles) in 5.1, and this is my first foray ever into 5.1. so i created 6 separate channels in a separate audio NLE from the 1 standard stereo .wav from the original DV tape, and saved each track as a mono .wav file. i then opened a 5.1 project, and imported each 6 mono track as its own speaker. and set the little carat thingy for each speaker it corresponds with (as i said, this is mainly supposed to be more “comical” then legit. just the ridiculousness of it all… my wedding in 5.1 from an original stereo track. so I’m not concerned with panning and blending. i want it really obnoxiously discreet 5.1) anyway… everything sounds and works the way i want it to, except the center channel. the center channel is bleeding into the front L and R channels. i don’t want it to do that. i want it explicitly strictly in the center speaker only, and no where else. is there anyway to do that in vegas? (i havent tested it in a 5.1 set yet, but watching the master control, when the center channel is going, the front L and R are also at full speed as well.) so will it be differently ON the ss set this way? or do i have to do something else? because otherwise it is not 5.1, its 4.1 :-/

    Click the speaker icons in the corners for that channel, and leave only the center icon highlighted/active.
