FCP 5.0 can it output 4 channels of audio?
Hello, I was wondering if anyone had any advice on a 4-channel audio output solution. Here is what I was thinking, and I was curious if this is possible…In FCP 5.0 if I use a Decklink Extreme Card can I output 4 channels of audio via SDI to a Digital Betacam (DVW-500) in a single pass, or do I have to do this in two passes?
If anyone has any advice it would be greatly apprechiated, thanks.
Cheers

Simply go into your Sequence Settings > Audio Output. Change it to 4 channels and whether you want the channels to be dual mono or stereo. Then go into your timeline and assign your audio tracks as needed.
I do this all the time now with Kona 2. FCP 5.0 can now capture 8 channels of audio as well with the right hardware.
