How to export 5.1 + 2.0 audio in the same film

Hi!

 

I am aware that there is a post similar to this one, but it doesn't quite work for me or I don't quite understand how to do it. The fact is that I need to export both channels, 5.1 and 2.0. I have both files in WAV provided by the sound post producer, but when I go to export there are errors such as the elimination of the voices in 5.1.

 

How could I do this?

Thanks!

Does your sequence have both the 2.0 and 5.1 setup in it?

Everyone's mileage always varies ...

I have tried to create a new sequence for both tracks, but when importing the 5.1 audio the dialogues disappear, I don't know why. How should I configure the sequence considering that I already have the two files in both 5.1 and 2.0?

 

Thanks!

Hi, Richard! Thanks for the help. The funny thing is that when I do it your way, the voices disappear. I don't know why it is, everything is the same. But I have discovered that, as I specify in the screenshot, if in 5.1 I put each channel only in one place instead of all of them (repeating it once for each channel) and then I duplicate the track, then everything can be heard correctly. I have exported a test and I think everything is correct.


Not quite sure what your problem is but remember there is more than one standard for the track order in 5.1 files.
