Re: [Avid-L2] 5.1 surround sound sequence

I would ask for the 6 individual tracks.

Import as 6 discrete tracks.

Layout 1=L, 2=R, 3=C, 4=LFE, 5=Ls, 6=Rs

Make edits.

Export new files as ProRes with direct out audio.

Make DCP.

(Actually I would try and get the cash for it to go back to the mix stage and get a new mix, but once that fails I would do the above)

I have to cut down a doc I editing to a new time.  It was done in 5.1 but that mix was done at an audio house and the layback done at the DCP house.  Now I have to cut the time down so I have the sequence of course and getting the stems from the audio guy.   What is the best way to lay out the audio tracks in the sequence.  Is this just a simple import of the 6 tracks, lay them down in sync, make my edits and export with the 5.1 audio setting?  Should I not mess with any panning of the tracks?  Not sure if this is going to be difficult or relatively easy.

Thanks
