[Avid-L2] Re: Suggest audio component(s) for 5.1 monitoring?

 

Resolved!

Removed the BMD UltraStudio Mini Monitor (and drivers) and replaced it with a simple mini-display-port-to-HDMI cable, connecting the iMac to the Denon 500AV preamp.

Launched the "Audio MIDI Setup" app in utilities and selected "DN-500AV," then used the "configure speakers" function to create SMPTE 5.1 channel order (L, R, C, LFE, SL, SR).

In MC7 I set the output to 5.1 Direct Out SMPTE.

Happy moment to solo each track and hear the proper sound come out of the proper speaker!!

I totally appreciate that Avid MC is facility-level software, and why post facilities have engineers on staff!! Having it available to a one-man-shop like me is great but there is no dodging the investment of time, and reaching out to serious pros on the L2, to make... things... work!

Thanks!
