Has Premiere fixed the proxy workflow with the 2024 upgrade, so that you can reconnect to full resolution media even though the number of audio channels on the source media do not match the 2 channel proxies?

Here's an old post from someone running into the problem on the 2022 version:

The problem was the cameras proxies, not premiere. The 4k full resolution has 4ch audio, and the proxies are 2ch, and was fixed by making 4k also 2ch......so the issue was having mismatching audio channels.

Really hope this issue has been fixed.

As far as I know, that's still the same, requiring matched audio channelization between both original and proxies. Sadly.

So, upon pix lock, I will need to modify all the master clips to 2 channel? Is this a good workaround to the problem? Or do I need to customize the proxy preset to match however channels are on the master clips upon ingest?

I would make that custom proxy preset in Premiere to match the audio channels of originals. And create the proxies that way.

I've heard of a few cameras make proxies with fewer audio channels, and that's a huge pain. As then you simply can't use the camera proxies in Premiere. That's is long-requested change but sadly, so far, no dice.
