Separating Audio Channels Premiere Pro 22

I'm having a little bit of a hard time separating my audio channels on a project. I've got all my music on A1 and all my dialogue and sound effects on A2-A9. On export I need for the music to all be on the left channel and everything else on the right channel separated. I've had a hard time getting this to work and I can't find a tutorial that addresses my specfic problem. Any help or nudges in the right direction would be awesome. Thanks!

Premiere is a little bit rigid in how it handles audio tracks and channels. There are two approaches you can go with (the second one is probably easier in this case, but if you needed more custom channel mapping you'd need to approach it the first way, so I'll say both in case it helps you in the future):
1. Create a new sequence with the audio channel mapping how you wish. So you'd basically make sure to map A1 to Left Pan, and all the other tracks to Right Pan. You should be able to copy and paste your current timeline into that new sequence.

2. Because it sounds like you are only concerned with panning then you can probably set this up for your Sequence in the Audio Track Mixer. Just Pan A1 all the way left, and Pan A2-9 all the way right. **EDIT: See Richard Knight's reply about the balance. It would probably be safest to use Option 3 rather than this one, using Mono Submixes.

Note that you could also just route A2 - A9 into a Submix/Bus and then you'd just Pan the bus instead of all the individual tracks:

Hope this helps.

You may have to be careful when panning stereo tracks as the pan control, I think, acts as a balance. 

I would create 2 Mono submix tracks, one for the music and one for the rest and then pan those submixes left and right when sending to the master.

That's a good callout. I'll add a warning into my option 2.
