Thanks for your help. I believe the approach of adding LS and RS ambience via spatial effects (reverb, delay, etc) is a fantastic method for mixing 5.1 music; however, I am faced with mixing outdoor ambient sound in 5.1. I am hoping to record a number of stereo takes of (for example) water gurgles next to a dock, and place them in the surround spatial environment – but I am not certain this can be done realistically. Is anyone familiar with this type of workflow?

thanks,

David
